Gov't Raps Unions News On Inflation
Washington reports Assistant Attorney General L Patrick Gray accuses organized labor of seeking to undermine wage price controls and criticizes the press for ignoring favorable rulings. He cites two admin court wins, a Cincinnati Transit Co fare case and a Chicago Black Hawks ticket hike reversal, while White House projects 20 years to full employment amid a looming postwar baby boom. The International Union of Electrical Workers seeks $3.35 hour exemption from controls, calling $1.90 a cruel blow, and the Fed notes December consumer credit fell due to fewer auto loans.
