| MEDINA JOURNAL-REGISTER i WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 23, 1972 _ The Freeze Wage-Price Questions and _ Answers Internal Revenue Service f § This column of questions and answers on the President's Economic Stabilization Program is provided by the local office of the U.S. Internal Revenue Service and is published as a public service. The column answers questions most frequently asked about wages and prices. Q.! Are tuition and room and board charges exempt from price controls? A. Yes. Tuition and room and board charges for state colleges and universities and private, non-profit schools, colleges and universities are exempt from price controls. However, private institutions, operating for profit are not exempt from price controls Q. Is every price increase above 2.5 per cent a violation of stabilizatlon progr a m guidelines? A No. The basic policy of the Pnce Commission is that price mereases will not be allowed except as justified on the basis of cost increases, taking into ac- count productivity gains. Thus, many price adjustments will be below 2.5 per cent and some will be above 2.5 per cent as justified on the basis of cost increases and other factors. The 2.5 per cent figure is the goal the Price Commission is aiming at as the . average price increase across the economy. Q.. I rent out a room in my home.

A. No. A concessionaire whose parent company has an annual sales volume of less than $200,000 is subject to the: postmg requirements if the store in which it operates has an annual sales volume of more than $200,000. A concessionaire whose parent company is less than $200,000 is not subject to the posting requirements if the store in which it operates also Khas an annual sales volume of less than $200,000.

JOSELOFF MOSCOW (UPI)-Foreigners living in one of Moscow's dozen or so apartment complexes set aside for non-Russians now have their own \Berlin Wall.\ The gray concrete structure is designed to separate the foreigners from natives in adjoining buildings. At first, Soviet authorities tried a chain-link fence, but holes soon appeared. Then they smeared black grease around the holes to discourage going through. This, too, did little good. Subway Short Cut Finally they decided on the wall and it may turn the trick. There's not much intrigue surrounding one of the busiest NOW thru Saturday While lelfed Quantities Last holes in the old fence. It's not that Russians were making secret contacts with foreigners nor were foreigners trying to | unobserved by | sneak out militiamen posted around the compound. It just happens that the hole at that location was a short cut to the nearest subway station. The U.S. amateur boxing | team recently met a Soviet in Moscow's Luzhniki | team Arena and while taking only two of the 10 fights, . the Americans managed to win over | some Russian fans. During one bout, the Russians were really pulling for the American. When the referee announced the win had gone to the Russian, the fans showed their dlsapproval by loudly whistling. Russians Liked Yanks The Russian fans were as interested in Americans outside the ring as those in it. 'When one of the Americans in the crowd yelled \that's the way, baby,\ Russians nearby pressed him to repeat what he had said in Russian so they could understand. Fifty-one Pan American stew- ardesses (plus two male airline employes) are in town for a month's study of Russian. In addition to the language, the girls are learning the ways of the Soviet secret police. Two dozen agents invaded their hotel rooms twice recently during Red Square funerals. | Their rooms in the Intourist Hotel overlook the end of Gorky Street facing the square. Agents are assxgned -there whenever there is a funeral because Soviet leaders always march in the funeral proces-. sions.
