During World War I, rationing was reduced simply because of the shortages of foodstuffs and other economic items caused by the war-effort. On both sides of the conflict, the naval and land (and even air) dimensions of the war caused normal importation and/or production of everyday items either to stop altogether or to be severely diminished, thereby causing shortages of one kind or another.
