Proposals failed narrowly or decisively amid union opposition and council talks on charter reform.

No sharp rise in food prices seen for 1976
The Agriculture Department lowered its 1976 food inflation forecast and a chief economist predicted grocery price gains will be the smallest in four years. First quarter prices held steady due to lower meat prices as supplies rebounded, with second quarter gains expected under 1 percent and first-half 1976 prices seen 4-5 percent above 1975. Prices for the full year may rise modestly if the crop prospects are good, but remain the smallest in four years.
