Gasoline was rationed during World War II because there were massive shortages due to the war effort. The U.S. Office of Price Administration issued a nationwide rationing in 1942 to assist in the war effort that ended in 1945. What was in shortage was rubber, not gasoline, and the best way to lower the rubber usage was to limit the amount of gasoline people could purchase to use in their cars.

In the late 1800s, people in many parts of the world decided to leave their homes and immigrate to the United States. Fleeing crop failure, land and job shortages, rising taxes, and famine, many came to the U. S. because it was perceived as the land of economic opportunity. Others came seeking personal freedom or relief from political and religious persecution. With hope for a brighter future, nearly 12 million immigrants arrived in the United States between 1870 and 1900. During the 1870s and 1880s, the vast majority of these people were from Germany, Ireland, and England--the principal sources of immigration before the Civil War. That would change drastically in the next three decades.
