The correct answer is B. The government planned what goods would be produced by private industry.

Explanation

The economic and industrial policy of the United States during the war was focused on producing goods and services related with the war, so for that time the production of weapons, uniforms, bullets, military goods, war tanks, planes, medals, flags, advertising, among other war-related products increased. This with the aim of selling these objects to European countries and thus strengthen the economy by taking advantage of the war.
