This article focuses on the socio-political conditions of the U.S. Speaking of the German Peace treaty which the Council of Foreign Ministers will try to draft when they meet in Moscow, Soviet Union on March 10,1947. Meanwhile, an avalanche of suits, bringing the aggregate of claims `to well over $ 1,000,000,000 has pushed the "portal-to-portal" problem right to the front of the national stage, where it is taking the limelight from both labor-law revision and pending wage negotiations. Employers, facing huge potential liabilities, are almost hysterically demanding that the U.S. Congress act immediately to rescue them.
