Nixon unveils plan for wage price controls and boards
President Nixon's economic program outlines a 15 member Pay Board with labor, management and public reps and a seven member Price Commission to enforce wage and price guidelines after the November 13 freeze. The goal is to cut inflation from about 4.7 percent to 2-3 percent by year end 1972 with limited wage and price increases and possible windfall profit sharing to lower prices. The plan seeks standby authority to regulate dividends and interest and could bring court actions and $5,000 fines per offense, with a potential extension of the controls to April 30, 1973.
