The War Department was but one of six major procurement agencies in the government consequently there was need for developing uniform termination procedures for all these agencies. At the request of the President, Bernard Baruch and John Hancock made a study of contract settlement and property disposal matters, which they embodied in their Report on War and Post-War Adjustment Policies (15 February 1944). Congress was meanwhile studying the need for new legislation and passed the Contract Settlement Act of 1944. This act, which pointed out the need for speed, equity, and finality in the settlement of terminated contracts, created an Office of Contraa Setdement with a director empowered to prescribe policies, procedures, and standards on contract settlements.
