Two Major Defeats For LBJ Within One Week
Washington AP reports that in seven days President Johnson faced two jolting defeats. Airlines and steel sectors defied his wage guideline as a 1960s inflation battle intensified. The airline settlement was deemed noninflationary by Johnson yet rejected by the union, while Inland Steel and other firms raised prices, prompting White House condemnation and questions about the guideline's viability. The era’s cost of living rose, with June prices up three-tenths of 1 percent and a broader six month rise. Gardner Ackley criticized business leadership as prices and wages diverged from policy targets.
