Does anyone know of any good reading material on the wage restrictions that were imposed during WWII?

I’m not aware of anything that focuses specifically on that, but here’s a decent article on the wartime economy generally, and there’s this review of Robert Higgs’ book, chapters 3, 4 and possibly 5 would contain relevant information.

Then there’s this, which will point you in the direction of some books by Mises himself, which are available for free download.

Hopefully someone will know of good articles that address it more directly, though.
