During WWII, the soldiers of Japan had a philosophy. It is called Bushido- they would rather have all died than surrender. The secretary of war realized that more and more people would die (millions more), because they would always refuse to surrender and fight to their last breaths. So, his reasoning was that it was better to kill a few hundred thousand people rather than let the war linger on, killing millions more.

what changes to arkansas economy could have lessened the effects of the great depression and hastened the states recovery? expla
HACTEHA [7]

One of the changes to Arkansas economy that could have lessened the effects of the Great Depression and hastened the state's recovery would have been that of diversifying its sources of income. Arkansas relied mostly on agricultural production, and besides this, its industries were extremely limited. This meant that the state was greatly affected by the low crop prices of this time period. It also meant that the many floods and droughts of the time severely affected the economy. However, if agriculture had not been the only major economic enterprise of the state, the effect would have been lessened.
