Wage-Price Check
Pledged by JFK
ATLANTIC CITY, N.J. (/P) President Kennedy pledged
to j wildly cheering United Auto Workers Union convention
yesterday that he would continue a drive to keep wages and
prices in check—but by voluntary means rather than tfom
pulsory controls.
The President indicated that whether some in business
and labor like it or not he is re- — <f
sponsible as chief executive for
maintaining wage-price stability,
and intends to do sb.
“I believe it is the business of
the President of the United States
to concern: himself with the gen-j
eral welfare and the public inter
est." he said.
Kennedy said he did not pro
pose to handle his job as merely
the honorary chairman of a great
fraternal organization and confine
himself to ceremonial functions.
The President said he expects
to continue to stress to labor and
management their wage-price ob
ligations tp the American public.
THE PRESIDENT said the two
great tasks' of the nation’s eco
nomy are to create demands for
goods and to avoid inflation.-
In pursuing the latter goal, he
said that "unjustified wage de
mands which require price in
creases are equally as contrary to
the national interest as are un
justified profit demands which
precipitate price increases."
Kennedy spoke in this resort
city's giant-sized Convention Hall
before a crowd of more than
10,000 including UAW delegates’
and the general public. I

had been' released from their
classes for the occasion.
Huge banners proclaimed
"UAW all the way with JFK,"
| and "We have a good president,
|we need a better Congress.”
KENNEDY SAID that in talk-,
[ing to the U.S. Chamber meeting
’and to American Medical Associ
jation officials recently he had be
! gun to wonder how he got elected.
I "Now I remember," he said, let
ia bow to his thunderous recep
tion from the UAW delegates.
Spoiling out.the principles of
his administration's policies, he.
said: ‘ "While individual adjust
ments ' may have to be made to
fit the previous patterns in in
dividual industries, in general, a
wage policy which seeks its gains
out of the fruits of technology in
stead of the pockets of the con
sumer ia the one basic approach
that can help every segment of
our economy."
He stressed again changes Tn
wages, profits and prices all must
come from within the gams of
productivity, or rate of output
per man hour. It is that measure
ment, he said, that inescapably
sets the other limit to economic
progress.
i Voting for Prof Snarf will close
at 5 pm, Friday. The contest
rules state that a person votes
by money. He may vote as often
and as much as he wishes. In
addition, all money given by a
student council to WUS will be
counted for that council’s nomi
nee, MUs Seastrom said.
