ROSEBURG, OREGON, THURSDAY, JULY 31, 194k I I t. -1 -a- 1. 1 1 President Asks Authority For Price Ceilings WASHINGTON, July 30-IAP) President Roosevelt, usseitinR inflatiunury price increases were threatening to "undermine our defense efforts" asked congress tailay to nuthorize him to estab lish ceilings for prices and rents. "We face inflation, unless we act decisively and without delay," hv said, iThe president also requested in a special message auiuumy w purchase mmeriais and commo dities when necessary to assure price stability and to "deal more extensively with excesses in the field of installment credit." While refraining from seeking authority' to put a limit on wages, he said he expected the volun tary cooperation of labor to pre vent labor costs from rising ab normally. "Labor,"--Mr. Roosevelt said, "has far more to gain from price i stability than from abnormal wage increases. For these are likely to be Illusory, and quick ly overtaken by sharp rises in living costs which fall with par ticular hardship on the least for tunate of our workers and our old jieople." Congress Divided. ;Tho message went to a con gress sharply divided on the ques tion of price fixing. Already a senate farm bloc has served no tice it would oppose limits on ag ricultural prices and only yester day won senate approval of a bill preventing the marketing during the emergency of government owned stocks on wheal and cot ton.
