Cost Of Living Up In October

Two Win $309 SdtoSsrships

WASHINGTON (UP)-The government reported today that the cost of living rose one half of one per cent in October to a

new record high.

The living cost index has b^en ; climbing for several months. It : has set a new record in four of I the last five months.

Bureau Commissioner Ewan Clague said he expected the bidex/o rise still fuither But he said it will not be ‘‘apanichy kind of thing-just firmness.” Whether the index would level off after the new’ year, he said, depends to a great extent on the economic effects of tho Suez situation, which could < ause higher prices for oil and perhaps other commodities. The increase last month was attributed mainly to a shai-p ri-e of 10.7 per cent in new car prices with the introduction of 1957 models.
