Plausability early war with Japan give fiscal stimulus

WI the US and other nations decided that Japan was dangerous in 1931.

Had there been a war involving Just Britain France (and presumably China) and the US against the Japanese Empire might there have been enough of a stimulus to end the depression early/

How quickly would J apan be defeated

Depends on the circumstances, cause, and how total the war is.

Since the U.S. wouldn't be hobbled by lack of intelligence on merchant ship movements, nor by lousy torpedoes (the Mark XIV was barely in development), & the Japanese would have far inferior aircraft & fewer CVs (one?), & fewer DDs even than OTL, it seems probable the war would be over even more quickly than OTL.
 
Thinking further on this lots of European nations had control of Chinese Ports.

And there was a influentual group in the US strongly sympathetic to the Chinese Nationalist regime
