Beyond the wall is a sheer drop

In the present state of Sum-
day activity in this automotive

in the trade. are compelled to
maintain their business vigil

Economic Controls
End in Bolivia

LA PAz. Bolivia, Dec. II (P).-
President Herman Siles Suazo
Yesterday signed DEGREES ending
rs years of rigid economic con-
trolls and heading the country
back toward the free trade road.
The DEGREES were drawn up by
the National Sterilization Coun-
ell with the aid of three United
States advisers. They are de-
signed to end imitation and
bolster a shaky economy.
The DEGREES lift controls on
prices and imports. wipe out
government subsidies on food
and other essentials and allow
an increase in rents, frozen for
10 years.
Wages and salaries will be
frozen for a year, but miners
will get pay boost first. The
increase is to make up for the
abolition of commissaries in
mines where workers bought
supplies far below the going
price.
