Roosevelt immediately declared the United States neutrality. The Neutrality Patrol , organized on September 4, 1939 as a response to the war in Europe, was ordered to track and report the movements of any warlike operations of belligerents in the waters of the western hemisphere. To augment the fleet units already engaged in the Neutrality Patrol which President Roosevelt had placed around the eastern seaboard and Gulf ports, the United States Navy recommissioned 77 destroyer s and light minelayer s which had lain in reserve at either Philadelphia or San Diego . The Neutrality Patrol led to U.S. warships assisting British Royal Navy vessels in convoy ing merchant shipping across the Atlantic Ocean . This placed U.S. naval personnel at considerable risk, as shown by the sinking of the destroyer USS Reuben James DD 245 6 from Convoy HX 156 by Ship German submarine U 552 2 on 31 October 1941.

Multiple issues wikify October 2010 orphan February 2009 update October 2010 CONSOLIDATION ACTS To consolidate Latin consolidare, from con , together, and solidus, firm is to press compactly together, put on a firm basis, and especially bring together into one strong whole. The practice of legislating for small portions of a subject only at a time, which is characteristic of the English parliament, produces as a necessary consequence great confusion in the statute law. The acts relating to any subject of importance or difficulty will be found to be scattered over many years, and through the operation of clauses partially repealing or amending former acts, the final sense of the legislature becomes enveloped in unintelligible or contradictory expressions. Where opportunity offers, the law thus expressed in many statutes is sometimes recast in a single statute, called a Consolidation Act. Among such are acts dealing with the customs, stamps and stamp duties, public health, weights and measures, sheriffs, coroners, county courts, housing, municipal corporations, libraries, trustees, copyhold, diseases of animals, merchant shipping, friendly societies, &c. These observations apply to the public general acts of the legislature. On the other hand, in settling private acts, such as those relating to railway and canal enterprise, the legislature always inserted certain clauses founded on reasons of public policy applicable to the business in question. To avoid the necessity of constantly re enacting the same principles in private acts, their common clauses were embodied in separate statutes, and their provisions are ordered to be incorporated in any private act of the description mentioned therein. Such are the Lands Clauses Acts, the Companies Clauses Acts and the Railways Clauses Acts . References 1911 Category Law ... more details
