National Income Figures and World War Comparisons
The article presents nation income estimates with emphasis on postwar comparisons. It references prewar and wartime values, citing figures in a period-appropriate monetary format and noting the impact of global events on economic measures.
Americans rich in money, poor in goods economists warn
Total wages and salaries funded production of 197 billion dollars with workers paid 155 billion. Of this, 97 billion was spent, 58.09 billion invested in war bonds savings and cash. Economists fear inflation as civilians have few goods and may buy unneeded items despite large incomes.
Wage hike plans clash with postwar expenditure fears
Proposed wage increases face a looming war debt greater than 300 billion with potential to reach 400 billion. Carrying charges may run 7.0 to 19.9 billion, veterans aid around 5.09 billion annually, and peacetime public works and a federal budget of 25 billion plus are forecast. National income may double prewar levels to support these costs, while labor and economists push for about an 8 percent industry wide rise.

War Mobilization Extends Tire Price Premium
Washington notes show War Mobilization Director Byrnes extended four months the premium on civilian tires, overruling OPA findings that no justification existed for the higher prices. Industry profits in 1943 and early 1944 far exceeded prewar levels, prompting debates with Army and WPB officials over price rollbacks and production aims.
