the administration is the killing of the Defense Production Its functions have Administration been taken over by the Office of Defense Mobilization The move is the first step to end controls on materials and products except for highly essentia defense items This swing to which the Republican party has is the forerunner long advocated of decontrol of prices and wages The administration may face some opposition In that many in congress want a stand-borganization ready in the event prices and wages get out of hand It is generally believed however that Eisenhower will have his way After

President’s prestige is vast and his political power is overwhelming No one or group as yet has had the courage to seriously cross him The Democrats are actually beginning fo believe they can get along with him much better than they supposed And although a number of Republicans are developing signs of congressional independence none of them including Senator Taft are likely to get far out of line in the near future |
