Reconstruction program outlined by Weeks in postwar study plan
Senator Weeks proposed a bi partisan Congressional Committee to examine postwar tasks. The resolution lists problems in five major areas: labor markets and unemployment, capital and credit, public utilities, demobilization of war resources, foreign trade and industry protection, agriculture, housing, and war legislation repeal. It covers labor supply and employment shifts, federal loans and supervision, railroad policy, resource conversion, new markets, tariff use, food distribution, land allotment to soldiers, housing and production capacity, and a general transition from war to peace.
