Washington reports a new price control policy using a yardstick standard. Industries cannot raise prices if profits equal or exceed 85 percent of the average of their three best years 1946-1949. Johnston says the tough policy absorbs most cost increases and rewards efficiency while broadening inflation controls across the economy.

DAR to Allow Negress To Sing In Hall
The Daughters of the American Revolution will permit Dorothy Maynor, a Negro soprano, to sing with the national symphony orchestra in Constitution Hall during the next fall-winter season. This may mark the first paid appearance by a Negro artist in the hall since the 1939 Marian Anderson incident. The DAR has faced years of criticism over its white artists only leasing policy, with past protests leading to open-air concerts and resignations from Mrs. Franklin D. Roosevelt and others urging change.
