AREA WAGE CEILINGS CONCERN FARMERS AND MERCHANTS
Economists in Washington forecast another wage hike amid possible 20 percent rent rise and higher consumer prices. OPS may lift the spare tire ban on new cars as it found no rubber savings. Congress weighs removing a 15 percent import tax on sisal for binder twine. WSB proposes a self-administered 10 percent catch-up for farm labor wages above 95 cents an hour. OPS conducts a national retail survey for community pricing and Safeway contests the price freeze. National retail sales in June drop 1 percent from May but exceed a year ago by 3 percent reaching 12.3 billion.
