Johnston Warns Cabinet of Chaos Over AntiInflation Drive
Washington statesman Eric Johnston told government leaders that the anti inflation program risks collapse without stronger White House and cabinet support. He publicly faulted several officials for not backing the stabilization effort, urging unified action from Congress and mobilization chiefs at a Defense Mobilization Board meeting led by Charles E. Wilson. He warned wage ceilings could trigger strikes if not enforced, and said wage disputes would be handled by a three sided board once agreed upon by labor and industry. He also cited opposition from cotton state senators to price ceilings and noted resistance from absorbed wage contracts. The session included remarks aimed at Agriculture Secretary Brannan, Labor Secretary Tobin, Commerce Secretary Sawyer, and Fed Chair Thomas B. McCabe.

New Auto Plates On Annual Basis Okayed by Senate
Automated license plates would be issued annually with a single letter and five digits. The bill passed the Senate without debate and heads to the assembly and governor for approval before taking effect July 1, 1951. If licenses reach 100,000 in a month, the 18th alphabetic prefix would apply. The system would keep America’s Dairyland on the plates with new plates issued each year. Additional tax revenue changes were introduced, including a potential pay-as-you-go plan for state income taxes and a local rent control amendment exemption for hotels and resorts. A joint reapportionment committee was named to study redistricting, with a report due by April 30.
