If it is the US that is being referred to then the conscription in the United States has been employed several times, usually during war but also during the nominal peace of the Cold War. The United States discontinued the draft in 1973, moving to an all-volunteer military force, thus there is currently no mandatory conscription in effect.

How did governments suppress antiwar in WWII?

Your question is not altogether clear. If you are talking about the Allied countries that participated, there was nothing to suppress because almost everyone wanted to fight and win it. In the Axis countries like Germany, Austria, Japan and Italy people started out enthousiastic (so nothing to suppress there, too) and later became more resigned but there never was an active anti-war feeling until almost the very end. In the occupied countries there were resistance movements that were pursued - not by local governments, but by the Germans - although in most countries, the resistance movements got most of their members at the end of the war when it was clear that Germany was on the verge of collapse.
