that the price of consumer ser vices is regulated by the General Maximum Price Regulation. which provides that the highest price that may be charged for consumer services is the price charged during the month of March, 1942.
 We do not eat or wear con sumer services" Mrs. Hermann said, But We do pay an enor- nous amount of money for them and they constitute an important part of our cost of living"
 Consumer services inclu q e such services as laundry and dry cleaning; repair of automobiles, boats, and electrical household appliances; shoe repairing; film developing, commercial printing; rental of cold storage lockers, and many other services perform ed for hire. If these prices go higher than the March level for the same services, the customer should immediately protest to the seller of the service. If he persists in his higher price, the transaction should be reported to the Local Rationing Board or nearest OPA office.
 War Can Be Lost At Home
 Remember" Mrs. Hermann concluded, Price control has been established as a weapon az ainst imitation. Imitation is the great menace to our Nationl ec- onomy, and as dangerous a wea- pon as any used on the real bat tie fields of the war. The fight against imitation is just as much a part of the war effort as the building of planes and ships" she said. Make no mistake about this,' Mrs. Hermann con- cluded, "This war is going to be won on the battle fields, but it can be lost at home"
 Be alert to what is going on around you. Be price conscious. Do your part on the home front to keep our National economy stabilized. Fight imitation on the home front. We call on every GUS toner of commodities and servic es to join in this battle; to do his part toward the stabilization of our National economy.

means that the prices should be visible at the point of purchase and no consumer should have to lcok for them.
 If ceiling prices have not been posted conspicuously in the store,' Mrs. Hermann continued, "The customer should ask the merchant why they are not post ed. Every inquiry made will serve warning on the merchant that his operations are being watched. If, after one inquiry, the customer does not find the ceilings posted, he should write to his nearest OPA office or Lo- cal Rationing Board and give full particulars
 The importance of asking for sales slips in making purchases of goods that seem unduly high was also emphasized by the Al aska Director. Under OPA reg ulations, she pointed out, the merchants are required to give sales slips if the customers asks for them. The slip should show the amount of the goods purchas ed, as we'll as the sum paid for it..
 Serious Penalties
 Serious penalties are provid- ed for the violation of any part of the Office of Price Admins tration regulations Mrs. Her mann stated. "The merchant may be fined in an amount up to $5,000, or sentenced to as much as a year in prison. He may have his license revoked for a period of months, and civil redress is provided whereby every custom CT may recover three times the amount of each overcharge, or $50, whichever is the larger amount.
 However, Mrs. Hermann con tinued, Do not try to be a price policeman. Leave that to the en- forcement staff of the OPA. Be vigilant, but do not be a vigil ante. If you think you are being overcharged, ask your merchant about it. He may have perfect ly good explanation. If he hasn't, then ask for your sales slip and forward your complaint to the proper authorities. It will receive prompt and efficient considera- tion."

Be Price Conscious

Tn the first place" she said, Be price conscious, study your prices from month to month. Our prices should now be fairly well established. They should not rise higher save on certain excepted items, and when Congress finish es it's task of passing the Anti Imitation Bill there should be no excepted items. Consumers must expect prices to be higher than they were during the weeks be- fore Pearl Harbor, but they should not go appreciably high CT than they are now. In fact they should go down.

 Consumers should also pay close attention to ceiling post ing" Mrs. Hermann stated. "Un- der the present regulations every merchant selling cost-of-living commodities is required to post his ceilings on those items in his store. The ceiling may be written on the article itself, on hte bin or shelf which contains 1t, or poster of prices may be placed conspicuously in the store. The main point to be em- phasized is that the prices should be posted so conspicuously that they catch the eye of the custom CT even when he is not looking for them.

JUNEAU, Oct. 2 - The part which customers should play in the enforcement of price control was sharply outlined in a radio address delivered by Mildred R. Hermann, Alaska Director of the Office of Price Administration in Juneau. Calling upon all consum CTS of commodities and services to be vigilant in the matter of checking on prices, Mrs Her mann pointed out that the en- forcement of the Price Control Act will be greatly simplified if every consumer does his part to- ward keeping prices at an even keel.

OVERMODEST GENTLEMEN

Sitting on the sideines, we have read statements by two o
Montana's most polished handlers of editorial rhetoric portray
ing their views the last few weeks. We refer to none other thar
Dan Milestone of the Cut Bank Pioneer-Press and Tom Stout
editor of the Lewistown Democrat News. Strangely enough
both played on the same theme - why a newspaperman should
not be a candidate for public office.
There are many excellent reasons. of course, why pundhs
of the sharpened pen should be abstainers from the mundane
task of soliciting votes, but most of these reasons can be applied
to other professions and trades. 1t is purely speculative on our
part, but we can conceive of no more interesting campaign than
if these two we're opposed for some position worthy of their
caliber.
Brother Milestone has long been a power in national Re
publican circles; he calls EN- WENDELL o r Joe" and has a
wide mountaineering over the state and nation. Coupled with
this, and frequently expressed in his editorials, is a repugnance
for demagoguery and long-winded sidestepping that has helped
puncture many a political bladder full of hot air. Dan has many
other qualities that might make him a rarity in the halls of
congress but they are the sort that folks back home are coming
to appreciate more and more a S they watch some of the goings-
on in Washington.
As for Tom, the Sage of the Judith served a term as Mon
tana's wartime congressman in the last great struggle and per
sonally studied conditions overseas. He has since filled state
office with distinction. His political know-how, executed with
Democratic party.
Just why two such eminent men should SO shudder at the
hurly-burly of an election campaign we cannot see. 1t is GER
tainly no time for those with ability and judgment to take the
veil and retire to clustered security. We need wise leadership
now and we need men to face the storms of war and the postwar
period who know and understand Montana's diverse problems.
We submit these two Fourth Estaters more than meet all these
qualifications.
