Costs Rise in March Beset by Clothing and Medical Care

Wholesale prices dropped as agricultural and processed foods led the decline. Factory wages hit a new high but overall purchasing power slipped about 1.6 percent from a year earlier. About 60,000 workers on CPI-based contracts will gain 1 percent per hour in cost of living wages.
