Living Cost Rise Temporarily Stayed In January
The Labor Department reports the cost of living rose only temporarily in January, with food costs climbing. Excise tax cuts from Jan 1 kept the index from rising. Johnson seeks to restore levies. Factory pay fell as Social Security taxes rose and hours shortened, though hourly earnings edged up. Meat and produce drove food gains with vegetables rising more than fruits.
