Nixon Tightens Oversight On Big Firms Inflation Move
President Nixon unveiled steps targeting large companies to curb price hikes. Firms with annual sales above 250 million must notify the government before raising prices by more than 1.5 percent over January 10 levels, delaying increases 30 days for review. The plan expands enforcement staff and requires detailed reporting on price changes since Phase 3 began, while avoiding new wage price freezes.

Forest Fires Ravage Carteret County Northeast Area
Firefighters battled four blazes in a remote part of northeastern Carteret County near the Neuse River. About 20 ground personnel with five tractors and three airplanes worked to contain the last fire covering around 15 acres, part of roughly 550 acres burned since Wednesday morning. The fires, on land owned by International Paper Co and Weyerhaeuser, may have been set intentionally. Access was hindered by remoteness, requiring river crossings and air dropping chemicals on Wednesday.
