National Security history. In 1938 it transferred from direction of the President to direction of the Joint Chiefs…

 

"The President remained the sole national security coordinator until 1938, when the prewar crisis

began to build in intensity, presenting numerous and wide-ranging threats to the inadequately

armed United States. The State Department, in reaction to reports of Axis activities in Latin

America, proposed that interdepartmental conferences be held with War and Navy Department

representatives. In April 1938, Secretary of State Cordell Hull, in a letter to President Franklin

Roosevelt, formally proposed the creation of a standing committee made up of the second ranking

officers of the three departments, for purposes of liaison and coordination."
