Answer 1

allowed the U.S. to loan weapons to England, to be returned or paid for when the war was over.

Answer 2

The Lend-Lease Act was passed on March 11, 1941, prior to the U.S. entry into World War II. It was a way for the U.S. to provide indirect aid and military materials to their allies—specifically the UK, Soviet Union, and China—without directly entering the war. The concept was that "any defensive materials" that the U.S. produced could be sold, transferred, loaned, or leased to any country the U.S. government said was defending itself against the Axis powers. Basically, it allowed the U.S. to ship weapons, ammunition, food, and equipment for war to Allied countries, to be returned or paid for when the war was over.
