Price Control Bill Faces Stormy Future
Washington November 3 After months of committee prep a price control bill for commodities and defense area rents moved onto the house calendar facing a stormy outlook Administration sources objected to a banking committee provision allowing farm prices to rise before ceilings A White House campaign to overturn the action was anticipated The bill may not reach debate before next week Chairman Stough of Alabama said it could be called up Thursday The committee voted 18 to 6 to send the bill to the floor The plan would empower a price administrator to fix ceilings on high priced commodities and to curb defense area rents using October 1954 as base Wages would be exempt A Brown Georgia amendment added a third restriction that farm ceilings must not be lower than the 1910 1929 average Some statisticians said food prices could rise up to 20 percent but Brown argued current agricultural prices exceed most ceilings He noted parity for cotton around 17 cents a pound and Saturday's market slightly above 16 cents The Georgian said adding a 10 year price average could push cotton parity to 21 cents a pound Some witnesses argued the 1919 1920 average would not curb inflation and others said the amendment would effectively exempt agriculture from the bill
