Each looked for an easier triumph, and a result less fundamental and astounding. Both read the same Bible and pray to the same God, and each invokes His aid against the other. It may seem strange that any men should dare to ask a just God's assistance in wringing their bread from the sweat of other men's faces, but let us judge not, that we be not judged.

He would sometimes use a translated version of the bible, in this case, he did. This speech is an allusion to his bible, and he means that slave owners get labor produced yet it is not from their own work. Thus it was from the sweat of other men that that they obtained there "bread". There bread symbolizes all of their wealth.

What is one thing the U.S. government did to prepare to mobilize troops?
777dan777 [17]

Answer: a.  The War Production Board helped factories quickly shift from only making consumer goods to making war materials.

Explanation:

A key part of the U.S. being able to join the Second World War and contribute so effectively in the time that it did, was the War Production Board's efficiency in shifting American consumer production to war materials for use by the U.S. military and the Allies.

Thanks to the Board, companies shifted their focus from consumer goods even though there was initially some massive pushback. Following a national campaign, opposition subsided and the U.S. was able to pump out so much war material that the war would not have been won without.

Why do you think more people voted for Roosevelt than Hoover in the Election of 1932?
leonid [27]

I think more people voted in favor of Roosevelt, because he felt the government should be spending time to help people who were in economic trouble. More people at that time blamed Hoover for the Great Depression crisis.
