Baruch Outlines Postwar Economic Policy Principles
Baruch urges price controls with modifications for a year and profits allowed but no profiteering. He calls for no wage increases without Office of Economic Stabilization approval and emphasizes avoiding favoritism, aiding those burdened by government action, ensuring military surplus goods, stimulating small business, and vetting lending with inventories. He proposes a high court of commerce to decide economic questions and warns without such a program the nation risks Fascism or Communism while aiming for a return to free enterprise within a year.
