Bernad M. Baruch reorganized the war industries board in 1918
During World War I, the War Industries Board (WIB) had significant powers to coordinate and oversee production and procurement of war-related goods. It had the authority to allocate resources, set priorities, and establish production quotas for industries involved in war production. The WIB could also regulate prices, control raw materials, and resolve labor disputes to ensure an efficient and effective mobilization effort for the war.
