Truck Firms Pinched by Fuel and Interest Costs
Murphy of Gateway Transportation told bank representatives at company headquarters that fuel costs in April 1973 were about 35 percent higher than April 1972 and interest costs rose 1.5 percent as primes climbed. The combined monthly impact on Gateway is around 70 000 to 75 000 dollars, with labor costs likely rising after the June 30 Teamsters contract expiry. A 60 day price freeze under Nixon’s policy raises questions about transportation costs and wage offsets, while teleprocessing delays may push system costs higher and earnings forecasts down from 2.75 to 2.90 dollars per share. Attendees included bankers and insurers.

Can Chiropractic Cures Be Guaranteed by Chiropractors
An author argues chiropractors never claim cures but can remove nerve interference to aid the body's healing. He notes that results depend on nerve involvement and distinguishes care from guaranteed cures, comparing to medical limits and the body's self-healing. He emphasizes spinal analysis and referral when not helpful.
