Anti-inflation plan urged by Ed Dale for wage restraint
Washington column argues Carter should appoint Ed Dale from the House Banking Committee to push a wage restraint strategy. Dale proposes a 5 to 6 percent inflation path with a targeted 5 percent wage rise in 1978 and uses a tax cut as leverage. He cites 1958 to 1965 gains as a model and calls for a presidential appeal to slow wage increases for a year or two.
