Researchers of the National

plexing trend.

This is the growing number
of respondents to the organiza-
tion’s field surveys who volun-
teer some comment advocating
that the federal government in-
stitute wage and price controls.
♦ * *
It is not much more than 20
years when the wartime OPA,
or Office of Price Administra-
tion, was finally buried, pre-
sumably deep. Yet the ghost of
OPA again stalks the land.
* * *
Paradoxically, in the early
days of the Federation, a major
campaign was launched to put
the OPA out of business. This
was in line with the almost
unanimous vote by the mem-
bers that OPA should be ended.
* ♦ *
The red tape, bureaucratic
interference and bumbling, not
to mention outright graft, was
the hallmark of the govern-
ment’s attempt to control infla-
tion by controlling prices.

Youngsters who were not yet
dry behind the ears, along with
many people who had never
successfully held a job in their
lives, played a large role in the
bureaucratic aggregation that
tried to be the law giver, the

And OPA was not without
humor, either, like the time a
regulation was published on
the slaughter of “female steers.”
♦ * ♦
Yet today there is a small but
growing sentiment among inde-
pendent businessmen for price
and wage controls.
* ♦ *
This is paradoxical, because
the independent businessman
is traditionally against any
Federal interference. And any
attempt at wage and price con-
trol is bound to bring down
upon the economy hordes of
half-baked theorists, busybod-
ies, and all manner of motley
persons clothed with the
authority of the government
* ♦ ♦
The fact that any business-
man would advocate such a
program is perhaps the best
evidence of the frustration that
pervades the land.
♦ * *
Obviously, the solution to the
current problems is to cut back
government drastically, not in-
crease it.

tact with the whirling blades,
resulting in the injury.
