Consumer prices rose by only 6.8 per cent in the 12 months to July. The last time there was a lower 12-month Increase in the index was in April, 1973, when it rose by 6.6 per cent. " The index the most widely used measure of inflation rose by four-tenths of one per cent in July. This is down slightly from its one-half of one percentage point increase in June and continues a trend of more moderate price rises since the start of the year. Higher costs for owning or renting a home were the main reason for the over-all index rise, while increased charges for recreation and for some food items were a smaller factor. Pork prices went up by about 2.3 per cent and vegetables, coffee and restaurant meals cost more in July than earlier. But this was partly offset by lower prices for beef products and for sugar, Statistics Canada said. The agency said that for the first time. in more than five years, cost for food consumed at home were down from year-earlier levels. There was a six-tenths of one per cent decline in these prices. Shelter, transportation But July's Improved price performance was mainly in food items. Excluding food, costs for the other components measured by the consumer price index rose by six-tenths of one per cent. Besides increased shelter charges, seasonally higher prices for hotels and motels were noted by Statistics Canada, while increased train fares pushed up transportation charges. However, there was a slight decline in gasoline prices and in costs for owning and operating automobiles.

Police Detective Thomas Kelly called Joyner "an opportunist." "If he was going to commit a robbery, he usually stole a car ahead of time," Kelly said. "When he was stealing the car, if there was a woman In ithe would rape her. "If he was holding up a store and there was a woman in the store, he would rape the womari.

Put another way, this means a basket of consumer items that cost $100 in 1971 had risen to $149.30 by last month.
