Reconversion curbs urged by Senator in wartime shift
Washington Sept 7 Congress applauded the War Production Board decision to lift 203% controls on civilian production once Germany falls but Senator Stewart urged protective action to stop corporations from gobbling released materials. He pressed for extending emergency priorities to small suppliers and warned of insufficient supply even with cuts. A joint Senate House committee weighed demobilization and reconversion while considering postwar retraining funded by the government. Senator Walsh flagged controversy over travel expense coverage for war workers. Stewart and acting Chairman Hatch approved WPB’s removal of production restrictions if done in an orderly fashion.
