Abstract:
For some two million U.S. citizens who are males and old enough to fight, and for millions more who are their dependents, a national transition from a state of peace to a state of war naturally creates more or less acute personal problems in connection with debts, taxes, shelter, and food. The aims of the Soldier's and Sailor's Civil Relief Act of 1940 was set up in advance \"to promote and strengthen the national defense by suspending enforcement of certain civil liabilities of certain persons serving in the Military and Naval Establishments.\"
