Consumer index leaps
to near-record levels

BRITISH POLICEMEN search for clues in London's Mall the morning after the gun attack on Prin-
cess Anne and her husband, Captain Mark Phillips. A suspect was detained in the case yesterday.
ANNE'S.ASSAILANT:
Kidnapping suspect taken

WASHINGTON (P) - The Con-
sumer Price Index for Febru-
ary, released yesterday showed
that food prices increased again
sharply.
"Our own estimate is that it
will be the last month with a
really poor record," Dunlop of
the Cost of Living Council said
Wednesday. He said food prices
in March, April and May should.
increase at a much more moder-
ate rate than in previous months.
THE 1.3 per cent rise in con-
sumer prices last month, the
same both seasonally and un-
adjusted, was the second big-
gest monthly jump since Febru-
ary 1951 and was exceeded only
by the 1.9 per cent increase re-
corded last August following the
lifting of the administration's
price freeze.
Food prices rose 23.per cent
last month, while non-food com-
modities increased 1 per cent,
and services climbed seven-
tenths of 1 per cent .
The increase in nonfood com-
modities was traceable to a con-
tinued rise in fuel prices, with
gasoline and motor oil up 5.3
per cent to a level 30.9 per cent
above a year ago.
GASOLINE alone jumped 5.5
per cent over the month, with
the price of regular grade gas
increasing to a national average
of 49.1 cents per gallon and pre-
mium up to 52.7 cents per gallon.
Prices also rose for apparel,
household goods and newspapers.
Used car prices dropped sharp-

ly, while new car prices also
fell, but at a rate less than us-
ual in February.
GROCERY prices - the major
portion of the food index -
were up 3 per cent last month,
substantially more than usual for
February, the government said.
The price of restaurant meals
and snacks - food away from
home-was up sevenths of 1 per
cent. .
The surge in- beef prices fol-
lowed a smaller increase in Jan-
uary and declines in the last
three months of 1973. Fresh vege-
table prices also rose last month
instead of falling as they usually
do. About the only decline in
food prices was that for poultry.

LONDON (MP) - Unemployed Englishman Ian Ball
was charged yesterday with attempted murder dur-
ing an abortive attempt to kidnap Princess Anne
near Buckingham Palace. The government ordered
tighter'security for the royal family.
Four persons were wounded in the shooting 150
yards from the palace Wednesday night. Anne, 23-
year-old daughter of Queen Elizabeth II, and her
husband, cavalry Capt. Mark Phillips, were unhurt.
"THERE IS NO present indication that this was
other than an isolated act by an individual," Home
Secretary Roy Jenkins told the House of Commons.
But he ordered security arrangements for the royal
family and other prominent persons tightened.
He said he had discussed with London Police Com-

missioner Robert Mark "such actions as seems sen-
sible to increase the safeguards already taken
against attacks like the one last night on Princess
Anne." He said their conclusions, to be effective,
would have to remain secret.
Jenkins said the object was to "achieve the great-
est degree of security without an unacceptable inter-
ference with the ability of public figures to lead
lives as nearly normal as possible."
BALL, 26, MADE a 60-second appearance at Lon-
don's Bow Street Court and was ordered held for a
week while police continued their investigation of
the first attack on royalty since 1939.
Police informants said they were trying to dis-
cover the source of a large sum of money in Ball's
possession.
