Convince people to conserve resources.
Explanation: The government (notably Hoover’s U.S. Food Administration and the Committee on Public Information) ran propaganda campaigns — “Food Will Win the War,” meatless Mondays, wheatless Wednesdays, victory gardens, bond drives — to conserve food and other resources. It did not try to increase sympathy for Germans (it suppressed pro‑German sentiment) or return to neutrality after entering the war, nor did it focus on boosting election turnout.
