President Johnson, presenting the 1967 economic report to Congress, called on business and labor to exercise utmost restraint in wage and price decisions to prevent an inflationary spiral.

The administration urged firms to absorb costs, possibly cut profit margins, and avoid chasing higher wages and prices as the path to stability.
