A Washington Week column argues Congress pursues a two pronged plan to lower prices. It links tax cuts to reduced government costs and taxes to lower prices, and touts a long term industrial relations bill for labor peace and higher production. It notes disagreement with the President who resists budget trimming and criticizes a large peacetime budget.
The President declares himself against any tax reduction for now and backs a commission to study High Prices. Congress faces a presidential veto as it pursues industrial peace and a labor bill, while White House spokesmen resist direct action. The outcome of Congress' fight against High Prices remains uncertain.
