The price rises could be more, prices from the present level, al- considerably more, it is held, if the though those items involving plas- Office of Price Stabilization fails to come up with a successful for mula to cope with the requests for higher prices which manufacturers are permitted to make under the so-called Capehart amendment in the law. The Capehart amend ment, named after its sponsor, the Indiana Republican Senator, Hom er E. Capehart, entitles practically every producer of processed and manufacured goods to apply to the Office of Price Stabilization for permission to include in his costs all but “unreasonable and exces sive” increases in expenses which have arisen in business between Today the same economists who _ __ worked out the $l-a-day figure fo^i the outbreak of the Korean war Eric Johnston, head of the Eco- anc } j uly 2 Q of this year nomic Stabilization Agency, say that it is too early to estimate what prices will rise or that there are too many intangibles to make solid predictions possible. Actually, the word has gone out from Administration leaders that the present law, with all its faults. The relatively few economists who dared this week to predict the probable price rise which would result from the existing law dur ing the next four to six months had these observations to make: Consumers may now be charged up to 10 per cent more for cloth- must not be attacked or ridiculed jng, but owing to conditions in the Friends of the members of the at present.

The few economists who will talk insist upon remaining anony mous, but a concensus of thdse, both in and out of the Government, tics may well rise 5 per cent Of more beyond the present level. Passdriger automobile prices will probably go up by an average of 10 per cent. Economists, however, concede that this is not entirely due to the new law. Even under the Defense Production Act of 1950, they say, automobile manu-! facturers would eventually have j pressed for, and received, price ad-! vances of between 7 and 8 per cent. Fuel prices—coal, natural gas, electric «and oil—are aorta in to show a rise, but the precise per centage escapes the forecasters.! They will settle for something in the neighborhood of 1 to 5 per cent.' Predictiorfs on food prices are 1 scattered more widely over the field than those of other items, but they range from 3 to 12 per cent There will be an increase in prices for petroleum products, but again the exeprts refuse to be pinned down*. They hold that $700,000,000 a 'year will probably cover the consumers’ end of the increase. A general advance in service costs, with special emphasis on increased charges for barber and beauty parlor fees, is forecast. , COMMERCIAL PRINTING This completely equipped eombt- natkm Newspaper-Commercial Print ing plant can serve yon better.
