S Steel 557s Youngstown S & T 797s Buy Less, Ike Tells Housewives Washington (IP) President Eisenhower today advised house wives and other consumers to buy less to combat rising living costs. At first, he said he w-as afraid he would have to beg off answer ing a news conference request for advice on coping with the cost of living, which has risen steadily for the past 13 months. But then he added that about all consumers can do is to buy less in a period of higher prices and increase their purchases when prices are declining. He noted that the cost of liv ing has risen between 5V2 and 6 per cent in thepast W2 or five years, but said he believes liv ing costs are steadying now. He attributed the slow-down mainly to the administration's monetary and anti-inflationary policies, but conceded there has not been complete success. He said rising prices are in evitable in a system of free gov ernment and free enterprise dur ing a period of dynamic upward surge in business activity such as employment, construction and industrial expansion. In some ways, he said, it is a bit miracu lous that prices are not higher. 80-Year Valley Resident Dies John E. Soliss, 91, of 111 Gen essee st.
