Lack Of Wage Curb
Called Weakness
Of Price Bill
Nystrom Of Columbia
Says Omission Moy
Prove Disastrous
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK. Jan. 12.-An econo-
mist today said omission Of any
effort to control wages" was . "key
weakness" in the administration S
price-control bill now before Con-
gress and could prove disastrous.
The statement was made by DR..
Paul H. Nystrom, Columbia Uni
versity professor Of marketing. at a
luncheon Of the Association Of Buy
ing Offices, Inc.
Another economist. A. w. Zelomek,
president of International Statistical
Bureau. Inc, and consultant to the
Office Of Price Administrator Leon
Henderson, pointed out that as the
war continues purchasing power will
exceed available supplies Of con-
sumner goods.
There are" DR.. NyStrom said,
two fatal weaknesses in the price
control bill: The provision setting
agricultural prices on a parity basis
and the entire omission OF any con-
troll over wages and salaries"
Emphasizes Seriousness.
Emphasizing the seriousness Of
the omission of any efforts to control
wages" DR.. Nystrom added, labor
costs make up more than two-thirds
Of all costs entering into the price
paid for goods and services by con-
sumers."
Mr.. Zelomek said:
If all you concern yourself about
In considering the 1912 demand
supply is this new tax bill you will
be looking into the wrong end of
the gun to see if it is loaded.
The imitation that is packed into
the Federal deficit-19 billion dollars
this fiscal year and AZ billion dollars
in the next fiscal year-will explode
right in your face"
Urging retailers to see both sides
OF the picture, zelomek said war pro-
duction. growing by leaps and
bounds. every day is cutting deeper
into civilian supply.
Urges Frankness.
Zelomek told those at the lunch
con. held In conjunction with the
annual convention of the National
Retail Dry Goods Association OPEN
ing tonight:
Don't scare the consumer by talk
Ing about non-existent scarcities but
don't deceive him about the avail
ability Of supply. Take the middle
course. Scour the markets for SUBJ
stitutes. Get ready for a production
shortage before it develops and have
something else lined up to take its
place"
Zelomek said retailers have rea-
son to worry about the effect Of the
tax bill on sales in the first quarter
OF this year-if they sell to the
higher income brackets only-but
added:
IT they sell to the main consum-
Ing class. families with incomes OF
less than $1,000 a year that account
for two-thirds of total consumption
a little simple arithmetic will put
their fears at rest. The 194l tax
bill does not impose much of a bur-
den on families in this group"
He said, however. that the 1912
tax bill would mean a different
story, explaining:
1T will dig down to the lower
income brackets, may involve a gen.
eral sales tax or compulsory saw
ings plan, will increase the excise
taxes and will fall even more heavily
on corporation and higher personal
incomes"
