Dairy Product Prices
To Stay Same Under
Permanent Ceiling
Other Food Items
Covered in Regulation
Fixing Maximum Levels
BY the Associated Press

BY the Associated Press
The Office of Price Admins
tration emphasized today that
prices on butter, eggs, cheese and
other food products previously
fixed by a 60-day price ceiling
freeze which expired December 3,
continue exactly the same under
permanent regulation which
replaced the temporary order on
the day of its expiration.
The new regulation governs prices
at the retail, wholesale and process
sor levels and covers, in addition to
the items named, condensed milk
flour, cake mixes, canned citrus
fruits ard juices, corn meal, hon.
iny, poultry Except turkeys, and
fresh citrus fruits tat retail cnly).
The new regulation follows its
predecessor in fixing the maximum
price on these commodities at the
highest level at which they were
sold by each individual firm during
the f1ve-day period, September 28-
October 2, 1912.
Ceiling to Be Replaced.
This ceiling is to be replaced by
specific dollar and cents ceilings at
the professors level as SOON as pos
sible. Fixed margins for whole
salers and retailers also will be
specified. AS such orders are issued
the commodities covered will be
withdrawn from the permanent reg
ulation.
Specific price orders already have
been issued on onions, potatoes,
turkeys and dry beans, food items
which originally were covered by the
temporary, 60-day freeze.
The new order provides that if
any maximum price fixed by it is
lower than the price set by an Agri-
culture Department agreement or
order, the departments price shall
automatically become the sellers
maximum. Under the Agricultural
Marketing Act the department reg
ulates the handling of milk and
milk products, fruits, vegetables and
nuts. The act sets minimum prices
which must be paid farmers for
milk.
Dried Eggs Exempted.
Sales of mutton, one of the foods
under the original; freeze, are not
covered by the permanent order be-
cause mutton will be covered under
a special control to be issued short
ly." OPA said. Sales of flour made
from rye, buckwheat, rice, oats, corn,
barley and potatoes-which also
were under the freeze-are elimin-
ated from the permanent ceiling
also. The sale of -four made from
wheat, however, is controlled by the
new regulation.
In a move to increase the supply Of
dried eggs for the armed forces and
the United Nations. the OPA also ex-
from price control during
January and February, 1943, dried
eggs sold TO the Government or any
of its agencies. e -" as- =
At the same time OPA exempted
from price control shell, liquid or
frozen eggs sold during the two-
month period to manufacturers buy
ing them for the purpose of making
dried eggs for the Government.

from numerous hits by the raiders
guns.
Main Boiler Hit.
"One main boiler was hit" the
Navy said, "and the ships speed
was reduced to one knot; other
shells struck the radio mast and
destroyed the aerial; the steering
engine room was hit by shrapnel
and incendiary shells; the main deck
house was set afire; the ship was
slowly flooding from numerous hits
below the water line, but her guns
continued to blaze defiance"
OF Ensign Willett's conduct dur
ing this action the Navy said:
Though seriously wounded, he
directed his crew and later manned
the gun himself with deadly effect
until direct shell hit exploded the
magazine, after which he proceeded
to the boat deck to help cast loose
life raftS.''
The engagement started little
after noon and Ensign Willett. who
came on deck as the first shell ex-
ploded was seriously wounded. He
proceeded to his station. rallied his
crew, and began pumping shells into
the smaller, more heavily armed,
OF the two raiders" the Navy said.
The smaller raider was set af1ame
from stem to stern and the larger
raider drew close to remove surviv-
ors. The larger vessel was damaged
severely.
Went Down Fighting.
The survivors in the lifeboat set a
course for the coast of South Amer
lea, using only the most rudimentarv
navigational instruments. They ran
into heavy squalls, and the exhausted
men bailed until their arms were
numb. The rain was welcome, how
ever, as it replenished their precious
supply of water. After 26 days, the
men sighted butterfly and two
moths, and they knew land was near.
On the 3lst day their log entry
shows this statement:
'Hurrah; sighted land 4 am"
The IS haggard men stumbled
ashore at a small Village on the
South American coast and were sped
to the nearest hospital for treat
ment.
High praise came from the Navy.

BY the Associated Press.
ATLANTA, Dec. "a grocer
from the vicinity Of an Army
camp told the House Small Busi-
ness Committee today he was
unable to compete with the camp
in purchasing fruit and produce.
The grocer, H. D. Samples of Ma
con, president of the Retail Grocers
Association there. said:
Il have not had an egg in my
store in three days because I can't
compete with Camp Wheeler under
ceiling price regulations" Mr.. Sam
pie said. The Army camp outside
Macon is paying 10 cents a dozen
for eggs, he stated, considerably
more than he is allowed to charge
for them.
He also testified that many small
meat dealers would be forced out
OF business because they were un-
able to compete with larger mer-
chants IN packing house dealings.
He said he was paying % per cent
more for meat than he paid In
March when OPA ceilings went into
effect.
Hoarding Suspected.
Shortage Of canned goods was
cited by H. L. Singer, Atlanta whole
sale grocer.
I know the armed forces are get
ting a large percentage of canned
food output" he said, but they are
not getting all of it. I am wonder
Ing II some person is going about
the country buying up available
stocks to hold until the ceiling prices
are lifted"
Army post exchanges also are cut
ting deep inroads into the sales OF
privately owned stores, witnesses
said. Although sales to civilians are
restricted, persons with authority to
buy from exchanges are acquiring
extra quantities for friends, it was
indicated
Patman Assails SWPC.
Representative Patman. Demo-
crat, OF Texas, told the committee
yesterday that the Smaller War
Plants Corp. has done nothing"
since its creation by Congress six
months ago, even though it had been
given the money, the power and the
directions.
Mr.. Patman, chairman of the
committee, said he believed that
perhaps Congress has done too
little checking up" on the admin
stration of Federal agencies.
Congress appropriated $3.50, 900 900
for the SWPC program, Representa-
tive Patman said, and in his opinion
would provide any additional funds
necessary.
j. l.. Mason, deputy regional d.
rector OF production services for the
WPB, stated that his Office had the
personnel, the forms and everything
else required to administer the act
as soon as the necessary directives
are received from Washington.
My guess" Mr.. Mason said, lis
that the SWPC felt it might be
better to build slowly but on a firm
foundation.
The committee will conduct its
final meeting at Charlotte, N. c.. to-
morrow before returning to Wash
ington.

STA, Red army dispatches announced
today, but the most westerly point
of the advance specifically men
toned is some 20 miles short Of

The dispatches claimed the re-

northwest of Smolensk and 20 miles
east of the frontier.
Front line dispatches gave this
picture of the situation on other
sectors:
Russian forces are continuing to
edge forward with cavalry support
in fighting around Leningrad in an
unchecked by unspecified advance.
West of Kalinin and in the south
west there is fierce fighting. where
Russian tanks are said to have
cracked the Nazi lines. At one

FOREST SERVICE
ANNOUNCES new
SCALE ON LOGS
Applies 10 Timber from
Tongdss National
Forest

Future timber sale contracts COW
ering sawtimber on the Tongass Ma
tional Forest will specify that saw
lags and trap logs will be scaled
to maximum length of 40 feet,
longer lengths. as two or more logs,
Charles G. Burdiek, Assistant Re-
gional Foreste,, said today
Thus, 40-foot log will be scaled
as one piece, a 42-foot log as a 20
and %. Longer lengths will be
divided accordingly.
This change, Burdick pointed out.
from 80 to 40-foot logs as a basis
for scaling puts the practice for
Southeastern Alaska in line with
that of the Pacific Northwest and
provides a uniform basis for the
scaling OF logs that may at times
come into competition. This will
result in a Slightly lower scale on
certain logs which are broken into
lengths in excess of 80 feet. such as
l20-foot tree scaled as three 4O's
instead of four 32's, and a "a as
one log instead of one 16 and one
49,
1t is said that this will cause some
minor adjustments, possibly to
equallze conditions in the log
market.

clergymen in the Northwest section

on Naval shore stations There is
very pressing need at the present
time for Navy chaplains."
Candidates for appointment to the
Naval Reserve are required to meet
the same conditions demanded of
candidates for the Chaplain Corps
of the Navy. They must be en-
dorsed by the official authorities of
the religious bodies represented and
all applications are scrutinized by
the Bureau of Navigation as to edu-
cational preparation and practical
experience. Ability and profession
