Week in Congress mixes war aid with price controls in 1944 act
The House passes a war relief bill adding unemployment compensation for veterans and funding for Lend Lease and UNRRA, with transfers permitted. The Senate approves billions for lend lease and UNRRA, while the OPA moves all new and used cars under price controls by July 10. War Production rules lift quotas on small manufacturers to boost farm machinery output. Local political notes critique Cedar City Mayor Lunt as a candidate and jurist, while Utah expositions plan a Wool Show with premium support and breed judges. Probate notices announce August deadlines for Alfred W. Lund estate in Iron County.
