Food Czar Proposals From Washington Hearings
Bipartisan leaders urged President Roosevelt to appoint a food czar and urged Congress to fund 1.5 to 2 billion dollars to subsidize a rollback in consumer prices. The group sought centralized control over production distribution preservation rationing and prices of agricultural commodities. Byrnes opposed a single overriding agency fearing it would puncture price ceilings, while Roosevelt pressed for subsidies as fairer than price hikes. Republicans warned subsidies would exceed consumer savings and inflation fears grew, as cannery labor shortages drew Senate debate.
