Armed Services to Hold Surplus Goods for Now
The War Assets Administration announced that the armed services will keep about five billion dollars of surplus goods rather than dump them into war surplus markets. Some items declared surplus have already been withdrawn for use to aid distress relief at home and abroad, including cloth and supplies. The policy shift extends the disposal timeline, with nearly 80 percent of holdings to be processed by next summer and liquidation of consumer and industrial goods slated over six to nine months, followed by a multi year program to transfer war plants to private control.
