![["The document discusses the failures of rationing during wartime, with shortages of meat, eggs, and other goods leading to black market activities. The author argues that artificial controls of prices and production have been ineffective and have raised costs. They suggest that a return to a competitive system based on supply and demand would be more successful in regulating prices and promoting economic growth."]](https://jones-2.s3.amazonaws.com/George%20B.%20Schwabe%20Collection%20/CAC_CC_047_1_0000_0000_0000-79th%20Congress,%201945-1947/CAC_CC_047_1_3_47_0000-Price%20Administration,%201945/Thumbnails/CAC_CC_047_1_3_47_0008_thumbnail.jpg "The Failures of Rationing Controls: A Call for Change")
