Leapfrog war and OPA critique from Briggs Detroit quotes

It argues OPA produced ceiling shortages and black market abundance, critiques congressional responses, and warns against nationwide strikes as ruinous. It ends with a blunt note on Nazi war-crime defendants linked to income tax evasion and gangster analogies.
