Cost of Living Stabilizes For First Time Since 1950
A weekly digest notes the cost of living index has paused its rise since June 1950 despite food prices remaining about 11.1 percent above last June. It reports 72,079 non battle Korean War casualties, bringing total U.S. war losses to 141,955 with most returning to duty. The piece surveys Truman’s stance on price controls and a Main Street drive defending beef price reductions and livestock distribution. It also covers peace rumors, MacArthur remarks, and Red Cross Korea clubmobiles aiding troops.
