Truman seeks expanded control on speculation and housing credits
President Truman urged Congress to empower the department to curb speculative trading in farm products and to strengthen regulatory powers over commodity exchanges. He asked for expanded rent- and real estate credit controls, citing the need to regulate home purchases and mortgage terms. He announced a manpower target of nearly one million to join the armed forces and four million in defense production this year, warning of unemployment cuts, more women and older workers, and longer hours. He set a June 30 service force goal of 3,462,205 and warned defense needs may divert copper, aluminum, and rubber, with steel expansion drawing even greater civilian-use reductions.
