The War Industries Board (WIB) was the government agency established during World War I to coordinate the production of war materials and ensure the efficient mobilization of resources. Created in 1917, the WIB oversaw the allocation of raw materials, the conversion of factories to wartime production, and the establishment of production priorities to meet the needs of the military. Its efforts were crucial in boosting American industrial output during the war.

Wartime challenges such as resource shortages, inflation, and the need for increased production of military goods prompted the government to take an active role in the economy, often through measures like rationing, price controls, and the establishment of wartime agencies to coordinate production efforts. The government also implemented policies to mobilize labor and ensure that essential industries operated efficiently. However, the government did not nationalize all industries or impose comprehensive central planning, allowing for some degree of private enterprise to continue alongside its regulatory efforts.
During wartime, automobile production often decreases as manufacturers repurpose their facilities and resources to focus on military needs, such as tank production. This shift is driven by government demands for military equipment to support war efforts, leading to a prioritization of tanks over civilian vehicles. Additionally, the scarcity of materials and labor, coupled with the urgency of wartime logistics, further accelerates this transition in production priorities.
The sale of government bonds was a source of wartime funds for the union.
