FIGHT AGAINST INFLATION
Explanation Given To Union Leaders (N.Z. Press Association—Copyright) LONDON, March 7. Sir Anthony Eden and other key Ministers this week explained the Government's anti-inflation policy at a meeting with 12 union leaders. The meeting was one of a series of “briefings” on the economic situation which the Prime Minister has arranged with leading figures in the industrial world. Sir Anthony Eden outlined the serious economic problems facing Britain and the Chancellor of the Exchequer (Mr Harold Macmillan) explained the Government’s plans in detail, reliable sources said later. The Prime Minister and Mr Macmillan, it was learned, made no direct appeal for a standstill in wage claims by unions, but declared that increased productivity should accompany any pay rises.
