Nixon Signals End of Most Wage Price Controls
Washington reports that President Nixon proposes ending mandatory wage price controls and shifting duties to a strengthened Cost of Living Council.

Large firms must file quarterly price and profit reports, and unions over 5,000 members must report wage changes, with IRS inspection possible for mid-sized outfits.
