WWII Office that installs price controls on essential items to prevent inflation
During World War 1, most wartime mobilization agencies relied on government intervention and regulation to prepare the economy for war. They implemented measures such as price controls, rationing, and production quotas to ensure the availability of essential goods for the war effort. Additionally, they encouraged increased industrial production and redirected resources toward military needs.
America instituted many price and wage controls during World War II to hold down inflation. Rent control got its start during the war and employers starting offering benefits such as health insurance to bypass wage controls. Shortages did occur and life was quite tough for those back home during the war. Once the wage controls were released after the war, prices did increase significantly. Prices went up 37 percent from 1944 and 1948, about the equivalent of the increase from 1976 to 1980.
