Playing DH 1.02b2 as USA, I have an IC penalty of 20% while USA is at war with Japan. It is called a Wartime Effect. How does the player reduce this penalty?

And, what's the point of losing the Peacetime Effect IC penalty when you go to war, if you are going to get a Wartime Effect IC penalty? Having both of them appears to be senseless.
