Actual fighting, meanwhile,

The bureau of labor statistics
reported today that retail prices

trend upward or downward in
the general level, which is about
10 per cent higher than on Au

"Except for those foods which
are changing in response to sea
sonal factors, there is a tendency
for food prices to decline on
those items which are more than
10 per cent above their mid
