Canada faces rising food costs as diet shifts to luxury
Ottawa probes surging prices with a Food Price Committee hearing from Mrs. Marjorie Hartling, a seven child Vancouver mother. Prices climbed 8.6 percent in 1972, with milk 76 to 81 cents, bread 38 to 46, poultry and ham higher. Critics blame inflation, wage controls, and policy shifts, while the opposition pledges a freeze if elected. Hartling warns Canadians may starve without action as welfare households struggle to cover basics.

TVA environmental labs expand at Muscle Shoals complex
TVA installations in Muscle Shoals region northern Alabama have evolved into a broad research complex studying environmental effects of power generation. The effort began in the 1930s with Wilson Dam, later focusing on fertilizer, sulfur removal from emissions, and wastewater heat use. A $42 million limestone scrubber is planned for Widows Creek, Browns Ferry hosts a major warm-water waste and agriculture project with $36 million in cooling towers, and Norris Dam and Wheeler Lake model studies use 400 probes and a computer to analyze warm water impacts ahead of Browns Ferry operation.
