New Agency Proposed for Small Firms in War Effort
Washington hearings on small business needs spur call for a dedicated government agency to aid small operators. Justice Department official Thurman Arnold testifies with Guy Holcomb proposing a small business advocate to speed action and ensure fair treatment in wartime contracts and material allocations. The Patman committee hears complaints from hundreds of small business leaders about delays and exclusion from defense opportunities. They urge standards for nondefense activity and a smoother transition to defense roles, plus fair priority handling for scarce materials and consumer goods.
