3217 IMMEDIATE RELEASE APRIL 23, 1952 The National Advisory Board on Mobilization Policy today reported the following findings and suggestions to the President, through its Chairman, Dr. John R. Steelman, as a result of its two-day study of the current steel issue: 1. The Board feels that its function, in circumstances such as this, is not to review the findings of the Government agency legally constituted to make such findings, but to satisfy TRUMAN itself, in the public interest, that there has been no special treatment accorded to any segment of the economy. (Unanimous S "NATIONAL RECORDS ARCHIVESA opinion. Es 2. The Wage Stabilization Board recommendations on the steel wage issue are within the established policies and regula- tions of the agency, and do not provide any basis for the sugges- tion that a new pattern has been established or different policies adopted. (12 to 1 agreement of the 13 members present.) 3. The steel industry is entitled to such price adjust- ments as are permissable under law and the regulations which govern all other industries. (Unanimous opinion.) It seems only fair that any industry whose price struc- tur e would substantially affect the Nation's economy should be re- quired to justify publicly any request for a change in pricing standards. (8 to 5 approval of the 13 members present.) 5. The National Advisory Board on Mobilization Policy believes the attacks on the integrity of the public members of the Wage Stabilization Board to be unfair and unsubstantiated by fact. (Unanimous opinion.)
