results in the OPA controversy.
Feeling is definitely increasing all
over the country, as well as on
Capitol Hill, that although it
would have been wiser to have let
off controls slowly, rather than in
the manner chosen by the Presi-
dent, now that OPA has been end
ed, it might be better to face the
difficulties that eventually must
be met in the readjustment to
normal, free living, rather than to
renew the fears of indecision in
which we have been living.
