three years ago. that the cost OF
living has been held so stable
for so long. The cost of living
rose only three and one half
per cent during the calendar
year 1913. All of this increase
came before OPA had control
over most fruit and vegetable
prices and before subsidies were
put into effect on such items as
butter and meats. At the end OF
December 1913 the overall cost
of living was at the same level
as in April. 1943-which means
stabilized prices for a period of
eight months.
1t is true that certain prices
rose during that period - not
ably those for clothing and
home furnishings. But these
rises were offset by a reduction
in food costs, largely as a re-
suit of the subsidy program de-
veeloped during the summer
months.
That is a significant achieve
ment. Compare the 1913 show
ing, for example, with the rec
ord in 1912 and l94l. In 194l.
retail prices rose full ten per
cent. This, of course. before
there was any Emergency Price
Control Act. and before there
was any OPA with power to
control retail prices. In 1912,
the cost of living rose another
nine per cent, while OPA. off
TO a late start, tried desperately
t. set up effective price control
machinery. In l943, the three
and a half per cent rise took
place almost entirely in the
first four months.
Yes, we intend TO hold the
line. Creeping prices will not
work, for prices that creep soon
start to crawl, and then TO walk,
and from a walk it's not far TO
gallop.
AS the war continues. our
price controlling becomes more
efficient and our job gets pro-
excessively harder. If we are to
maintain present price levels so
that the boys who come home
will have something TO come
home to, we must all pledge
ourselves to a greater. more CO.
operative effort in 1914"
