Abstract

Three months after the passage of the Emergency Price Control Act a partial and selective approach to the problem of price control has been abandoned and a comprehensive over-all ceiling has been put into effect. The economic forces generated by total war have quickly proved too powerful for the limited controls originally planned. As a result, a sweeping program of governmental control over the economic life of the nation has been instituted, with consequences too complex and far-reaching to be foreseen in any detail.
