Profit Squeeze Eases
This, too, has been q long
time coming but industry's eff
forts to get out of the profit
squeeze by alternating, elimi-
mating waste and resisting ma
jor wage hikes are now paying
off.
The third force is the rela-
tive stability Of prices. After q
prolonged period Of weakness,
industrial prices are firming
again. Prices are not taking
off in Q new spiral; the index
Of industrial prices Is only at

point is that prices are holding

trolled costs and firm prices
and the result is the bright
profit picture Of 1868.
