be adjusted for increases Or de-
|creases in costs between June "a,

that, price increases would be TIED
to wage increases.
Provides for Adjustments.
The new measure, as did the

adjustments for increases or de-
creases in costs in the period from
the beginning of the Korean war
to last July rs must include ad-
justments for changes in neces-
sary and unavoidable costs in
Guiding these:
All labor, material and trans
portation costs and q reasonable
allowance, as determined by the
President, for changes in all other
necessary and unavoidable costs
Including selling, advertising. Of
