U S to probe profit rule compliance of 1000 firms
The Cost of Living Council announced an IRS led inquiry into more than 1,000 companies with under 50 million in yearly revenue to test compliance with profit margin rules. New Phase 2 sanctions were reaffirmed and Phase 3 actions included blocking part of a wage contract for North Central Airlines and IAM. Northwestern details indicate small grocers under 100,000 annual sales exempt from meat price ceilings though most neighborhood grocers remain covered. Reports on Phase 2 profits must be filed for fiscal years ending during Phase 2.
