0PA Order Fixes Prices
Of Packaqed HoIidayGoods

Rules governing prices which re-
tailers and wholesalers may charge
for articles especially packaged for
terday by OPA. They classify the
holiday packages into two main
groups:
l. Those in which the packaging
consists primarily of paper or ordi-
nary cardboard OF both, and in
which the article or articles are
regularly sold by the vendor in sea-
sons other than Christmas tsuch
as cigarettes, ties, socks, handker-
chiefs, etc. The maximum price
for the contents and the packaging
in this group is the maximum price
which normally would apply to the
contents without the special wrap
pings.
2. Those in which the packaging
consists of material other than pa
per and ordinary cardboard and is
of the type which normally would
carry combined price higher than
the price charged for the contents
without the special packaging, or
those in which the package con-
tains an article or articles, all or
any of which are not regularly sold
by the vendor in seasons other than
the Christmas season.
The supplemental regulation is'ef-
fective from Monday to JANUARY
Is, 1913.
The order is limited to packaging
done by the manufacturer or pro-
Queer. Packaging done by the re-
taller or wholesaler does not entitle
the seller to increase the price I'M
less the package has an independent
intrinsic value of its own. The seller
is not required to break up Christ

facturer to sell an individual item
