“No Necessity Now
For Wage, Price
Controls”~T ruman

a few more developments. A re
port had recalled that only a cou
ple of months ago the President
had said the outlook for peace
was better than it had been at
any time since 1945. The news
men asked if the President still
felt that way.
On the question of wage and
price controls, Mr. Truman said
he thought his economic message
to Congress had covered that. He
said then he would not hesitate to
ask for them if he thought they
were needed.
A reported said there were ru
mors around Washington that
price and rationing steps were al
ready in the making and were to
be set in force by Labor Day. .
The President said that was
news to him.
Another reporter wanted to
know whether, if prices are rolled
back, they would be rolled back
to the June 25 level as Baruch
proposed.
Mr. Truman said he would cross
that bridge when1 he came to it. j
Such a step, he went on, is not;
being considered now.
At the Capitol, attorney general
McGrath made a plea, meantime,
for quick passage of the controls
asked by President Truman.
McGrath was before the Senate
banking committee, the same
group that heard Baruch.
The attorney general told the
Senators he believes the powers
the President seeks are broad
enough and flexible enough to
handle the situation unless there
are “more serious developments.”
Baruch, venerable Presidential
and Congressional adviser, criti
cized President Truman and Con
gress yesterday, saying they have
not moved far enough or fast
enough to get the nation ready for
a finish-fight against communism.
Bluntly he said all-out controls
must be clamped on—and the
sooner, the easier for the Ameri
can people.
While most Congressional lead
ers shied away from the Baruch
proposal, Senator Sparkman CD.
Ala.) told a reporter he would ask
the Senate banking committee to
consider it fully.
In other developments:
