The purpose of the Board was to regulate the production and distribution of materials and fuel during the Second World War in the United States. The PTB converted and extended peacetime industries to meet the needs of war, allocating scarce materials vital to the production of war, establishing priorities in the distribution of materials and services, and prohibited production that was not essential. Things like gasoline, fuel for heating, metals, rubber, paper and plastics were rationed. It was dissolved shortly after the defeat of Japan in 1945, and was replaced by the civilian production of the Administration at the end of 1945.
