Boston banker predicts inflation will stay high into 1975
Dr. James B. Thornblade of the First National Bank of Boston warns inflation will remain elevated through 1975 with no quick return to 2-4 percent. He notes expected 9 percent price growth this year, compares it to wartime and postwar spikes, and cites wage growth, productivity, post-control price bulges, and weather as delaying factors.
