Rayon Hosiery Price
Ceiling and Quality
Orders Put in Effect
Temporary Pricing and
Marking System Setup
Pending Adjustments

Despite requests from manufac-
turers and two congressional sub
committees that the rayon hosiery
ruling be postponed, the Office of
War Information today reported
that two much discussed Govern
ment regulations have been put into
effect.
These are the War Production
Boards conservation order L-274,
which establishes standards of con-
struction for all hosiery. and OPAS
order MPR-339 with three subse-
ouent smendments) which estab-
fishes dollars and cents maximum
prices for all women's rayon hosiery.
Stockings sold under this order
will be primarily full fashioned and
the majority an inch shorter than
the same style In silk or nvlon The
latter chance is not war measure,
but Is based on the stretching prop
critics of ravon.
Five Color Limit Per Stvle.
The 1943 stocking will be limited
to five colors in anv one stvle. will
have reinforced foot and top and
stipulated number Of rows of
stitches in the log to prevent skinny
construction, Proper Identification
will assure consumer protection, as
will price fixing.
Serviceabilitv rather than sheer
ness will be the rule and although
there may not be as manv stockings
available. there should be enough
TO meet present needs.
Government regulations on price
and quality have eliminated the
need for rationing up to the present
time.
Subject to Change.
In letter to the National Asso-
eiation of Hosiery Manufacturers.
Price Administrator PrentisS NJ.
Brown declared that the regulation
will be scrutinized over period of
three or four months to determine
how the trade fares during this
initial period under the regulation.
He also promised that "chanees will
be made" if inequities are discov-
cred.
In order to avoid the inconven-
fences which the hosiery industry
declared would result in the market
ing Of hosiery made before OPAS
price ceiling ruling, amendment 3 of
the order will not go into final eff
feet for few months OPA has set
temporary pricing and marking pro-
cedure which will operate in sim
plif1ed and staggered system until
adjustments can be made.
