 ?. No consideration is being giv- en for bombing Red China and no such action will be taken without asking LIN approval
 B.. His staff is working on the tremendous job of setting up price controls he thinks may be neces- sary to have eventually complete across the board price and wage controls" AS for rationing, Tru- man said he will cross that bridge when he gets to it.
