FDR's first major act as president was the Emergency Banking Act. Passed just 5 days after his inauguration, FDR did this in hopes of stabilizing the banking industry. At this time in the US, the Great Depression was in full swing and banks were struggling. This is because so many people were trying to take out their money from the banks that thousands of banks all over the country were forced to close due to lack of paper currency.
With the Emergency Banking Act, FDR declares a "bank holiday." This 4 day period allowed the federal government to start reorganizing the banks and to provide currency to those banks who needed it.

Answer:
The Lend Lease Act was initiated to, as the poster Uncle Sam holds, to support the US's allies in their war effort. "Short of War" is used to describe that the US economically was already in the war, as they provided loans, created military hardware and equipments, and heavily invested in their allies. The only thing holding them out was the public opinion, and the investment of American lives nonvoluntarily. The left side is used to suggest the public opinion, and how there were sentiments on both sides for the argument. In essence, Uncle Sam is trying to appease both sides in supporting logistically the Allies, while not forcing US men into the warfront.

Social Darwinism explained the operation of society as "survival of the fittest."
People often associate the term "survival of the fittest" with Charles Darwin, but actually it was terminology that came from Herbert Spencer, the founder of what is known as Social Darwinism. (Spencer wouldn't have called it that - he and Darwin were rivals.) Darwin used the term "natural selection" in his descriptions of biological evolution. Spencer was unafraid to apply the same concepts to competition within the human species, contending that the stronger, fitter social or cultural groups will survive better than others and dominate over weaker groups.
