What did the u.s. Government do to encourage businesses to convert factories to wartime production in?How did the Germans try to
dmitriy555 [2]

Answer:

The huge economic potential, territorial remoteness from theaters of operations, as well as the later entry into World War II put the United States in better conditions in comparison with Great Britain and the USSR  for restructuring the economy, establishing military production, and deploying armed forces.

In the summer of 1941, US military-economic preparation accelerated. In order to centralize defense efforts and further reorganize the economy, an economic defense department was formed on July 30, 1941, and a month later, a department for the order of supply and placement of orders, which included representatives of large capital along with heads of government departments.

Much attention was paid to military-industrial construction. The government, meeting the requirements of the monopolies, provided them with generous state subsidies, loans, and tax breaks. The military factories built by the state were then contracted to private firms and corporations. In 1941, $2.7 billion was allocated from the state budget for the construction of military factories.

The Germans tried to hide their intentions. They tried to convince the allies that the deportations were carried out with the aim of “relocating” Jews to labor camps “in the east.” As a rule, the camps were taken out of towns.
