Description

President Truman took to the air tonight, explaining his veto of the OPA Bill, to the American people. The President said that the Extension Bill was a choice between "inflation with a statute and inflation without one." He said that if the bill becomes law, the people of the country would think they had a workable price control law but would soon come to a "bitter realization" of the truth. From: Beth Gore.
