It does not follow that the country is in a position to support any marked expansion of civillan output. All the committee pleads for utilization of such materials as can be safely released for the immediate production of essential articles. The committee’s plea for relaxation of Govern- ment controls and restrictions as fast as conditions permit is hedged about by a good many reservations, For instance, it concedes that a quota system will probably be necessary for various civilian items de- clared to be essential for household use and that special allocations will have to be made to manu- facturers using scarce materials. That leaves only items not on the essential list to be made from sur- pluses available after war products and essential civ- ilian items have been provided for.. However, as demobilization progresses, more and more materials will be added to the list of free surpluses. Hence the question that concerns the Truman Committee is whether companies shall be permitted to acquire such surpluses in the market and manufacture what they please, or whether Government regimentation of pro- duction shall be extended to cover such industrial activities. It is against the latter possibility that the committee report takes a strong stand.
