icized -guesswork" forecasts of in
flation. He announced a forthcom
ing , survey to obtain "facts" on
how the steel strike settlement is
affecting prices.

the stabilization program. Sawyer
"btatements predicting the in

which are not based upon facts
render a great disservice to the
American people." ;
Few Increases
The secretary released reports
from all commerce department re
gional offices, indicating that in
general there have been "no wide
spread price increases as a result
of the drought"
"I plan to make a similar In

steel settlement upon our econo
my." Sawyer said.

fancy are presented to the Ameri
can people." i

ant factors generating inflation Is
the public's fear that prices will go
up. He cited the "alarming evi
