Washington AP reports the Labor Department cost of living index rose again in May, driven by higher food, housing, clothing, medical care and personal care costs. Indicated wage earnings for factory workers also hit a record, with a family of four seeing weekly take home around 8103 and single workers at 734. The May rise is seen as seasonal, with expectations of continued modest increases through summer unless food prices jump before fall harvests.
