Clothing Price Slash Looms Says DiSalle
Denver June 13 price stabilization head Michael DiSalle announced a new clothing price formula to be issued soon. The plan bases prices on three months before wartime hostilities and adds actual increases in labor and material costs, notably wool, to set a final ceiling. He cautioned some manufacturers have exceeded general cost increases and will have to reduce prices. He also noted cattle receipts rising at major stockyards as a possible indicator, though effects remain uncertain.
