Morgan, Minnesota Ear associa tion official, on lawyers' fees: "A doctor may look down your throat, seen an inflamed condition, prescribe a pill, all in five or 10 minutes, and send a bill for S5.

The time, and Statistics Groups Differ on Figures For Cost of Living New York (I'PE Did the cost of living rise or fall last month? The government said it rose by 0.2 per cent. The Nation al Industrial Conference Board, a highly respected pri vate research group, said it fell by 0.1 per cent. The Department of Labor's Bureau of Labor Statistics started keeping, tabs on the cost of living in October, 1919. The conference board started in mid-1918. Often Disagree Since those days there have been times when the indexes have agreed precisely. At other times they have dis agreed widely. What accentu ates the current difference is not so much the gap of three tenths of a percentage point but the occurrence of the gap at the point where it means either a rise of a decline. But why should there , be differences at all since both indexes seek to measure the same thing? It's not because of errors or the size of the staffs of either organization although the government staff is larg er, experts say. Rather, the reason involves different pro cedures for ' collecting infor mation. The major areas of dis agreement in the July. index es were in the food and trans portation sectors. The BLS showed food costs off 0.1 per cent and transportation up 1 per cent. The NICB re ported food off 0.3 per cent and transportation up 0.6 per cent.

The conference board com ponent represents information from four large cities New York, Chicago, Los Angeles and Houston collected monthly, and 12 smaller cities collected quarterly. The Labor Department's food calculation is arrived at by sampling 46 cities monthly. Differences Iron Out An analysis of both indexes shows that month-to-month differences between them gen erally iron themselves out and established a trend over a period of several months. Averaging the changes over the two month period finds a difference of only two points. One heartening thing for consumers show living costs are leveling out. And Com missioner of Labor Statistics Ewan Clague comes up with this optimistic note price stability should persist for "six months, maybe a year."

Friendly Priest Meets To Talk About Problems By ERNEST SAKLER United Press International . Rome (UPD A friendly priest with thick eyeglasses meets the children of Rome every Sunday in the Oratory of St. Peter's to discuss their big and little problems with them. The children call him "Mon signor" or simply "Don Al fredo." Hardly anyone ever calls him what he should, "Your Most Reverend Emi nence." The smiling prelate, son of a baker from Rome's poor district of Trastever, is Al fredo Cardinal Ottoviani, Pro Secretary of the Sacred Con gregation of the Holy Office and the man who rocked Italy's political world with his frank words. Exploiting Church An elections-jittery Italy jumped when the 67-year-old Cardinal flatly stated in a signed article in the Catholic Action newspaper II Quoti diano that some Catholic poli ticians were exploiting the church for their own worldly ends. Opponents of the governing Christian Democrats prompt ly interpreted the Cardinal's words as an attack on the party-in-power. They used it Harrisburg Man Killed Near Alturas Altu'ras, Calif.

The Cardinal himself was unmoved by the storm. He is a man who believes in speak ing frankly, and had touched off a similar furore five years ago when he said before the 1953 elections that in a state composed entirely of Catho lics and governed by Catho lics, "it is a duty to give legis lation a Catholic orientation." Stern in Defense The Cardinal, a man as in defense of the church as he is amiable in daily life, is popular with the Romans both because of his humble orig ins and because he is one of the few "Romans of Rome" in the Sacred college. Of his three brothers, all of whom died recently, one was a baker like their father, one was the head of the Vati can's food office and one an official of the Vatican mu seums. Ordained a priest in 1916, Ottaviani became Undersec retary of the Sacred Congre g a t i o n for Extraordinary Church Affairs in 1928 at the exceptionally early age of 38. He became an official of the Holy Office in 1935. Pope Pius XII made him a Cardinal in the Consistory of Jan. 12, 1953. For all his firmness on re ligous matters, Cardinal Otta viani is tolerant toward per sons in need. During the Ger man occupation of Rome, he turned the Holy Office build ing, citadel of Catholic ortho doxy, into an asylum for per secuted Jews and Protestants. But he did not- let them remain idle. When fighting broke out between Italian and German troops in Rome after the 1943 Italian armistice, he ordered the refugees to stand sentinel at the doors of the building along with the Papal Swiss Guards.
