This act was needed or else we wouldn't have had a strong military. Having troops was one of the most important and key factors to winning any battle.]]> 2021-01-27 14:54:45 UTC https://padlet.com/krebsjon/dwrl1hnjqla5hol0/wish/1131912454 krebsjon https://padlet.com/krebsjon/dwrl1hnjqla5hol0/wish/1131923824 The War Industries Boards primary job was to control the operations and manufacturing of weapons and military equipment.  While men were off fighting the war women had to work in many of these factories.  Over the span of the war over one million women worked for the War Industries Board.  Was there an age requirement for women or boys to work for the War Industries Board?

Americans became more patriotic and supported the war effort more. Was this created so less people would be arrested for Espionage and Sedition Acts?]]> 2021-01-27 14:57:20 UTC https://padlet.com/krebsjon/dwrl1hnjqla5hol0/wish/1131928755 krebsjon https://padlet.com/krebsjon/dwrl1hnjqla5hol0/wish/1131931789 The espionage and sedition acts was a law put in place by President Woodrow Wilson.  The law forbid anyone from saying anything against the American war effort.  Thousands of people got arrested and convicted of "hate speech" against the war.  It was the greatest impact on the first amendment.  Was this law technically illegal because of the amendment?
