Now, It's Phase 4 Nixon Reveals New Recipe for Eggs and Meat on Every American Table
By FRANK CORMIER
Associated Press Writer
WASHINGTON—President Nixon ordered an immediate freeze Wednesday night on all retail prices, including those of the supermarket and grocery stores, for a maximum period of 60 days.
The move, which does not affect wagues,
was announced by Nixon in a nationwide
storm of protests.
The price lil forbids charges higher than the maximum in effect during the period jilu.
It covers everything from auto to toothpicks but does not include raw agricultural products.
Nixon said the freeze period "will be used to develop and put into place a new and more effective system of controls which . . . will involve tighter standards and more mandatory compliance procedures than under Phase 3."
In Congress, Republicans said the economic controls are "on target." But Democratic reaction ranged from doubtful to damaging.
United Auto Workers president Leonard Woodcock said a food-price freeze "will only create artificial shortages and black market prices."
Nixon's action on food was stronger than controls during the 90-day wage-price
freeze of 1971, when only processed foods were covered.
The freeze was followed by a less stringent wage-price control program called *TPC-C*.
The Phase 3 program, containing largely voluntary compliance, went into effect in
Nixon met frequently during the past week with his economic advisers, many of whom reportedly recommended against a freeze.
On Thursday, the administration received the bad news that wholesale prices, which presage consumer price changes, had gone up 2.1 per cent during May.
In his 15-minute speech Wednesday night, Nikon declared that "prices are going up at a rate of 20% per month."
WAGES—There will be no freeze on wage increases, as long as wage settlements remain, in the President's words, "responsible and noninflationary."
PRICES - A freeze will be imposed on all retail prices for at most 60 days. No retailer may charge more than the maximum prices in effect June 1-8. Only raw agricultural prices are excluded; this will allow a farmer to sell his produce at the highest price he can get. Present controls on interest and dividends are not affected. Rents free from controls in January will remain free.
Here's the White House Plan
He called on Congress, "on an urgent basis," to grant him new and flexible authority to impose export controls, particularly on food products whose prices are uncontrolled by foreign demand in this year of poor growing conditions in much of the world.
EXPORTS—Congress will be asked to grant new authority to the President to impose export controls, especially on food and equipment purchased up because of foreign demands. The House will ask for congressional authority to selectively reduce tariffs for such items as meat, plywood and zinc, and to sell more commodities in governmental stockpiles.
"We will not let foreign sales price meat and eggs off the American table," Nixon declared. "In allocating the products of America's farms between markets abroad."
AUDIT$-$There will be financial audits of companies that have raised prices more than 1.3 per cent above January climings. If the costs were rising, the prices will be rolled back.
Nixon asserted that his tougher anti-immigration blueprint "will deal with the rise in immigration."
prosperity or your job." He ordered a thorough audit of the books of companies that have raised prices more than 1.5 per cent above January ceilings. If the boosts were not justified by rising costs, he promised, "the prices will be rolled back."
The government had ordered no rollbacks since Phase 3 went into effect in January.
and those in the United States, we must put the American consumer first."
since Phase 3 went into effect in January. Nikon's actions did not affect present controls on wages, interest and dividends. In January will remain free of restraint.
NEW YORK-K new federal indictment was announced Wednesday against financier Robert L. Vesco, who already has been charged in connection with a $250,000 cash contribution to the Nixon re-election campaign.
U.S. Returns Second Indictment Against Financier Robert Vesco
The new accession charged Vesco with defrauding International Controls Corp., which is formerly formed, of $250,000 to repay a loan held by Vesco and the former owner.
In the week leading up to the President's speech Nixon had been under increasing pressure to tighten the economic controls. He was also called for freeze on everything but wares.
The original indictment charged Vesco with conspiracy to obstruct injustice
Nixon said he decided against a wage breeze because "wage settlements reached $20 billion."
The charges said Vesco donated the money to the Nixon campaign in hopes of getting favorable treatment during an investigation of his ties to Russian oligarchs.
Bonn Asks Membership in U.N.
BONN, W. GERMANY—Chancellor William Brandt's government announced Wednesday that it would apply within the next two days for full membership in the United Nations. The announcement was made by government spokesman Armin Gruenweild a day after East Germany submitted its official membership application to U.S. Secretary-General Kurt Waldheim.
Gruewenwald also indicated that Bom planned to proceed with a June 20 exchange of notes, in which the two Germans are to implement their historic normalization treaty, despite a renewed bid by Brandt's planned opposition to delay the exchange through legal maneuvering.
Brando Floors Photographer
NEW YORK- Free-lance photographer Ron Bailaelle wanted a couple more pictures of Marlon Brando. What he got instead was a hard right hook that broke his lower jaw, Galella, who was involved in a suit brought by Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis on his persistent pursuit of himself and her and her family, said he followed Brandon and Dick Cavett which they went to Chinatown after taping ABC TV's "Dick Cavett Show."
He took about eight pictures of Cavett and Brando, both wearing dark glasses, as they walked two blocks toward a restaurant.

"the bang! Out of the blue! One punch," recalled Galella. "I didn't even see it come. It was very unfair for him to give no warning."
LONDON—Tennis players and officials were still deadlocked Wednesday in a dispute that could lead to a mass boycott of the Wimbledon tournament by the world's top stars.

Processed Foods Retain Vitamins, Proteins; Supermarket Food as Good as Any, Says Prof
By JOHN A KING
Kansan Staff Writer
Personal preference should be the only factor involved when a person decides whether to buy food from a grocery store or a health food store, Marie Cross, associate professor of human development, said Wednesday.
Processing now retains a great amount of
the vitamins and protein in most foods, Cross said. Food processing is important in the transportation of certain foods across the country and to foreign countries.
WITHOUT processing, many people would never get certain types of food that are not able to grow in certain areas, she said.
Cross said it was a matter of taste
whether a person decided to buy fresh, frozen, or canned foods.
The methods used to speed up meat production through cattle growth stimulates did not cause a loss in protein in the meat, and have caused more fat in the meat, she said.
CROSS SAID that the food purchased in

By LAUREL DEFOE
Anna Burger, owner of the Downtown Health Food Store, said Wednesday that foods in supermarkets were nutritionally bad and have decreased in 'beir quality.
Kansan Staff Writer
Burger said that today's methods of growing and processing food were responsible for the lack of nutritional value in supermarket food.
"Potato chips are mostly fat and salt and not much else," she said.
SUCH FOODS as sugar-coated cereals and corn chips areimmunally, according to
"Food is processed for appearance, preservation, convenience and gimnicks." Burger said. "It has to look good or we won't eat it; it has to be able to sit on the
shelf without spoiling and be easy to fix because today's consumer hasn't the time to spend fixing a meal or canning their own vegetables."
Fresh produce in supermarkets may not be as fresh as it seems. Often, stores hold fruits and vegetables in their back storage to keep them fresher before they're available to the consumer.
SHE DOES post a list for the customers that gives names and addresses where customers may buy fresh produce. Burger said this way not only unaided freshness, but also was less expensive to the consumer.
"The customer doesn't have to pay the cost of packaging, transportation, handling, and storage with the
