My best guess is the selective service act (s.s.a.)

Marta_Voda [28]4 years ago

The system employed in the US for recruitment during WWI was <u>formally denominated Conscription but commonly known as the draft.</u>

<u> </u>President Wilson, in 1917, decided to implement this mechanism in order to reach the 1 million target after the failure of voluntary enlistment that only recruited 73,000 volunteers. In order to optimize the contribution of each person, depending on his personal skills, the The Selective Service Act of 1917 was carefully designed and enacted to achieve so. It turned military service into a liability for all US male citizens, initially those who were between 21 and 31, and later on those between 18 and 45, to enhance the recruitment numbers. It was not possible to be exempted from this military service.

What gains didIf we can Americans make in late 1940s
densk [106]
Subsequent to World War II, the development of nuclear weaponry, like those used at Hiroshima and Nagasaki, soared in anticipation of the Cold War. Furthermore, because resource and consumer production were converted to suit the needs of a wartime economy, citizens protected and increased savings for the time when the manufacture of cars boomed instead of military tanks. Following the war, the United States of America experienced a dramatic increase in the quality of the economy. It was continuously stimulated through the purchase of items that were available in the late '30s, for example. 

The technology of society was also propelled further than ever before; the idea of colored television toyed with the minds of viewers and advertisements became incredibly popular and effective in marketing. New inventions crowded shelves as shoppers became increasingly aware of the benefits that 'Hoovers,' or vacuums, provided in the home, for instance.
