Summary: In many respects the world of which our country forms a part must be refashioned after the return of peace. The old economic system has proved itself incapable of solving the problems with which the future will confront us. Moreover it was the cause of repeated economic crises resulting in unemployment and loss of output. Existing markels nearly always proved inadequate to absorb potential production, even though the needs of consumers to a great extent re mained unsatisfied. Poverty and unemployment occasioned cuts in production, which in themselves gave rise to further poverty and unemployment. The demands of total war have forced nations to make the utmost use of labour and other means of production. A return to peacetime economy will not necessarily mean that the production of armaments will merge in an equally powerful effort to produce for peacetime needs. The after math of war has hitherto always been economic crisis and industrial stagnation. The first objective of our postwar economic policy must be to obviate mass unemplyment and industrial crises during the transition from war to peace.
