Inflation waning but curbs sought in defense drive
Mobilization chief Charles E. Wilson said inflation has been moderated but a stronger brake may be needed.

He predicted high civilian production in 1951 to support a pay-as-you-go defense program, citing large planned investments and defense plant expansion.
