My web searching powers seem to be weak lately ...
What exactly did the USA export during WWI?
I'm particularly interested in manufactured "substitution exports", i.e. US businesses stepping in to replace German/A-H manufacturers cut off by blockade, or British and French producers converting to wartime production (or overrun by the Germans).
I know about food (also a degree of substitution due to no Russian wheat on the market?), cotton, oil, rifles, trucks directly ordered by Britain&France - but what about e.g. wheelbarrows, sewing machines, railroad rails, textiles etc. exported to South America, non-belligrent Europe, Asia or Africa?
