Congress weighs postwar bills and veteran aid
Members of Congress have introduced about 3700 bills to aid veterans and dependents while facing budget limits. The House passed a reciprocal trade bill with potential 75 percent tariff cuts, and debates extend price controls for three months. Army discharge age may drop to 35 with broadened credits, and a large Social Security expansion seeks hospital grants, health insurance, unemployment basic reforms, and coverage for more workers. Veterans unemployment rises to nearly 20,000 in April, as demobilization nears. The San Francisco conference advances toward a world organization charter, but peace relies on actors using the machinery wisely.
