levels on all commodities at once by

Commerce said today. Immediately
upon agreement between manufac-
turers OF basic materials and the gov
ernment agency, the prices believed TO

cOrding to a statement by Secretary

Redneld explained that until the plan
can be successfully worked out the
present stagnatiOn in business may be
expected 10 continue. Accomplishment
Of the end sought, Redfeld believes,
"ought TO justify the consumer in
buying"
Instructions issued 10 the board by
Redfield today declared that "The ef-
fort should be wholly 10 eliminate the
abnormal, unbalanced stimulation that
business has had and the imitation that
resulted. Industry should be helped 10
start anew upon a normal level. There
after Il can safely rely on the law Of
supply and demand"
Hope cannot be held Redfeld ex-
planned that prices will be as low as
before the war. But he,asserted there

levels.
