Truman to Sign Reluctant Economics Controls Bill
President Truman was expected to sign the new economic controls bill today, despite calling it inadequate to curb inflation. Congress and stabilization officials said veto unlikely, though the measure limits his requested powers and leaves a strong dissent from labor groups. The bill authorizes price and rent control, allocation of scarce materials, production incentives, and relaxed consumer credit terms, while denying some requested authorities. Two senators moved to reopen debate on slaughter quotas, enabling hearings on that issue.
