Elder Statesman Bernie Barueh revealed some interesting figures on inflation recently in an sesfi.;i with 14 younger congressmen at hi Shoreham hotel apartment. Baruch's prediction was that the nation was hell-ben- t for inflation and soon. Piecemeal increases in wapes, profits and the cost of living have been uneven, Baruch said, with wages lagging behind: For that reason he no longer favored his prewar idea of a freeze on both prices and wages. Our only hope, said the elder statesman, is that we can weather the next six lo nine months without funning into serious inflation. It we do that, our chances of a strong recovery from the war boom are - ; . . :' , 1 i ... good. "The huge pent-u- p demand for products which we will see during the next nine months, is a very serious threat," said Baruch, stressing the importance of holding prices down. He amazed his listeners by say ing that he is completely opposed to tax reduction of any nature at this time. "Not only does the government lose needed revenue, but it is an unhealthy thing for our general economy," argued Baruch. Rep. Andy Biemiller of Milwaukee asked what Baruch thought of the statement by General Motors' pres ident C. E. Wilson that If wages are raised 30 per cent, prices must go up 30 per cent. Baruch talked at soma length on the general question of rising prices, but gave no direct an swer. Finally, Biemiller repeated his question. "I'm afraid I can't agree with Mr. Wilson," Baruch said. f 3 Soviet Foreign Commissar Molo-toshown in air photograph as he addressed the Soviet council and announced that the Soviet "will have v, Shown atop the New York telephone building are the of a secret army radar microwave during demonstration antennas used relay system.
