The public debt in 1932 when FDR took office was $22 billion and largely was a heritage of [[World War I]].<ref>''The Roosevelt Myth'', John T.

The original Neutrality was extended to expire on May 1, 1936. It was renewed with a "cash and carry" provision for two years. The basic feature, a prohibition on loans to belligerent governments remained intact. The new act required that, if the president proclaimed the existence of a state of war between others nations, or a civil war that endangered the peace of the Untied States, the shipment of arms, ammunition, and implements of war, excluding raw materials, would be embargoed.
