House Votes to Lift Price
Controls From Most
Consumer Goods
WASHINGTON, UP) — The
House has tentatively voted to lift
price controls from virtually all
consumer goods and drastically
reorganize the Wage Stabilization
Board.
The ripped and tattered exten
sion of the administration’s De
fense Production Act faces other
sharp changes when it comes up
again next Wednesday.
First big vote then will be on
a provision requesting President
Truman to invoke the Taft-Hart
ley law injunction proceedings in
the steel strike.
With a coalition of Republicans
and Southern Democrats in con
trol of the legislation, administra
tion leaders concede they have
little chance to block adoption of
that proposal. Absences have
sapped the administration’s vot
ing strength.
Among early Anglo-Saxons a
bride was given a shoe by the
bride’s father and custom dictated
that he strike his bride on the
head with it to prove he was the
master.
