Washington sees little change in OPA policy under Brown
Washington reports that policy and personnel at the Office of Price Administration are expected to remain largely unchanged as Pren tiss M. Brown succeeds Teen Henderson. Brown is popular with Congress, and observers expect less criticism to aid his push on price control and rationing. There is talk of a nationwide ban on pleasurable driving, with early program effectiveness showing savings in rubber and gasoline in the eastern states. WarManpower head McNutt’s pledge not to draft or register women is seen as enabling women to join industries and the military on their own terms.
