WHOLESALE PRICES
The price orders prescribed high

producers prices, but provided that
they would go into effect on May

The regulations also prohibited
rises in the prices of services such

ton of such commodities as washing
machines, stoves and other articles
covered by the commodity price
ceilings. The maximums are fixed

NEW BUSINESSES
DR.. j. K. Galbraith, deputy OPA

He said there was no intention OF

starting.
The average buyer will be pro-
tected by regulation providing that
stores post conspicuously the ceiling
prices of a selected list of so-calleo
"coSt-of Living" commodities which
they may handle.
The list contains about ITO COM
modities, with many derivatives. A
store cannot display any article
unless its ceiling price is plainly
marked. If the selling price is less,
the price tag will have two quota
tions-the ceiling and selling price.
In the case of hundreds of thous-
ands of unlisted commodities, the
regulations provide that a buyer
may ask and obtain the storekeep-
er's ceiling price on articles in
question. That regulation will pre-
vail until July l. After that date,
storekeepers will be required to
have written statement on the
highest prices of all commodities Oh
