Although there are no options attached or any other context and references, we can comment on the following.

The government had to produce goods to ensure supplies for the armed forces.

During the times of World War and World War II, the United States had to modify what had been produced by the US industries in order to support the troops at the war front.

For instance, before entering World War II, the US lend-lease program of 1939 helped the Allies in that it gave them war supplies.

The US federal government approved the Lend-Lease Act of 1939 in order to support countries such as France and Great  Britain in the war effort. The argument to lend and lease to these countries was that their role was important to keep the United States' economic and political interests safe.

Conditions changed and after Japan's Pearl Harbor attack in December 1941, President Roosevelt asked Congress for a declaration of war against Germany. That is how the US entered World War II.
