Private Citizens To Make Tough Economy Decisions
President Nixon creates a price and wage control framework using a 22 member Pay Board and a seven member Public Price Commission to set guidelines. The goal is to curb inflation to no more than two to three percent by late 1972, with observers wary that wage rises must average around 5.5 to 6 percent to meet the target. The two bodies will be guided by the Cost of Living Council and face pressure from unions and nonunion sectors while tackling medical, state local costs, and financial areas.

Nixon outlines phase 2 economy plan and wage board
President Nixon said the wage price freeze is remarkably successful and announced a continuing program to curb inflation. He created a 15 member Pay Board and a seven member Price Commission to set standards, with government veto power, and asked Congress to extend the Economic Stabilization Act for another year. Phase 2 begins Nov 14 with guidelines to keep inflation at 2 to 3 percent annually, while raw agricultural products remain exempt.
