This phrase was used by President Franklin D. Roosevelt in a radio broadcast in December 1940 in which he pledged to supply Britain with Military equipment to assist their fight against Nazi Germany, while the US stayed out of the fighting - signifying that the US and, specifically Detroit, Michigan would be The Arsenal of Democracy.

This was, of course, before the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor.
