That in now way contradicts what I posted. We were tooling up for the war everyone knew was coming, well before Pearl Harbor. The draft had been implemented in 1940. So much of 1941 can be considered the advent of the war for us, not just the last 3 weeks of the year.

The unemployment rate was down to 9.9% om 1941. And that was the average for the year.
