1 A number of general mobilization plans were drawn up early in this period, but are not discussed here as they have had little or no effect upon the course of events. These are the M-Day Plan of the Army-Navy Munitions Board, third revision, 1939; the Report of the War Resources Board, 1939; and the Brookings Plan, 1939. All of these plans assumed that a comprehensive organization would be established from the first with extensive congressional authorization, though certain parts of the structure would be filled in as a war developed.
2 The First War Powers Act (55 Stat. 838) was enacted on December 18, 1941, the Second War Powers Act (56 Stat. 176), on March 27, 1942.
