Consumer Chief Talks To Littauer Assembly

Price Regulation Education Is Encouraged by Sessions

Stating that the American people must be educated in the danger of inflation and given all the facts if post-war economic destruction is to be avoided, Robert E. Sessions, director of the Consumer Division of the Office of Price Administration, yesterday called for the co-operation of schools of all kinds.

Addressing a Harvard-Princeton meeting at Littauer the consumer chief stated that the purchaser is often baffled by price regulation and thinks that all goods declared scarce by the government should be removed from the counters.

Total War Emphasized

He continued by emphasizing that this is a total war, a war in which the whole people are involved, not only. just armies and navies

Accordingly, he urged that price regulation be presented to the people so that they will understand it, whether the medium be the radio, propaganda posters, intelligently written books, cartoons, or even funnies.
