Baruch Warns Inflation Threatens Postwar Recovery
Elder statesman Bernie Baruch predicts persistent inflation over the next six to nine months with wage and price rises out of step and no tax cuts. He urges slow manpower demobilization, opposes broad price controls, favors cabinet question periods in Congress, and notes the impact of pent-up demand and war-time dynamics on the economy. He names guests including Kefauver Gore Priest Sparkman and others at Shoreham. Churchill recalls post defeat distress over lost cables but adjusts to life after premiership. Senate elder statesmen ages listed from Bankhead to McKellar.
