Prices to Remain High Warns University Professor
United Press economic professor Gerald B. Cox of the University of Chicago warned housewives that prewar cheap prices are gone. He said prices are unlikely to fall to 1880s levels or 1943 lows, noting that sharp price drops hurt more through unemployment and reduced production. He advised against delaying purchases to avoid prolonging inflation, despite signs of consumer reluctance. Jewel Tea and Kaiser reported rising costs and new pricing moves as the era of cheaper goods wanes.
