What’s the question asking for though?
Rationing most likely helped the total war efforts by MAKING CITIZENS FEEL LIKE THEY WERE CONTRIBUTING TO THE WARTIME EFFORT.
Rationing refers to the strict control of scarce resources and goods when it comes to their distribution. Rationing is usually used during wartime to ensure that the available limited goods and resources go a long way. The ration given to each person usually depend on age, sex, social status, etc. Rationing make the civilians to feel that they are contributing their quotas to the war.

Anarchy means there are absolutely no laws and you can go around and do whatever you want. This means that murder and robbery is bound to happen and there would be no safety.
Hope this helps.
