Controls lifted
The Cost of Living Council in the United States has I lifted wage-price controls on supermarkets, food processors, and all other retail and wholesale segments of the food industry. This action by the C.L.C. affects about 2.5 million workers in 330,000 firms through the nation, and ends 2| years of the Government’s economic regulation of the food industry. A willingness of labour and management to work for improved collective bargaining in the future is given as a key reason for the decontrol decision. — Washington. April 16.
