The Office of Defense Transportation faces possible dissolution, with the ICC asked to take over loading mandates if Congress ends its life in June. May car output lagged, due to steel shortages and strikes, despite claims government orders directed steel use to meet a 10,000 cars per month goal.

Corn prices likely stay above June 1946 ceilings but below 1946 summer levels after controls. Braden resigns as assistant secretary of state over Latin America policy. Norman Armour tipped as successor amid signals of a shift toward appeasement of Peronist regimes.
