Panel approves a 2.5 percent automatic rent hike to cover rising costs, with latitude for capital improvements and hardship cases.

Inflation Gains Slow But Remains Up in November
The government reported a 0.2 percent rise in the November cost of living, with the four months around Nixon's wage-price freeze showing inflation halved. The BLS notes food prices rose 0.7 percent in November, nonfood goods unchanged, services up 0.3 percent, and average weekly earnings fell 74 cents to 128.74 dollars. The 0.2 percent rise implies the CPI at 122.6, about 12.26 dollars to buy what 10 dollars did four years ago.
