Id. at 439, 54 S.Ct. at 240. In subsequent cases, the Court enlarged the degree of deference accorded to state economic and social legislation affecting private contract rights. E.g., Veix v. Sixth Ward Building & Loan Ass'n, 310 U.S. 32, 37-39, 60 S.Ct. 792, 794-795, 84 L.Ed. 1061 (1940) (sustaining permanent legislation limiting withdrawal of funds from savings and loan associations); East New York Savings Bank v. Hahn, 326 U.S. 230, 233-35, 66 S.Ct. 69, 70-71, 90 L.Ed. 34 (1945) (approving tenth extension of mortgage moratorium). Under these post-Blaisdell authorities, the contract clause placed only limited inhibitions on the ability of state legislatures to address significant social problems by legislation affecting existing contractual undertakings between private parties.
