WRANGELL BOY TO
 BE AWARDED MEDAL
 FOR so. PACIFIC ACTION

Cpl. Robert Shermer, Nrangell boy whose active war service dates back rom the days Of Guadalcanal, has written The Sentinel an in- teresting letter telling of his latest exploits against the laps. Wound ed on Saipan, young Bob is in line for a Purple Heart award. His let ter follows:
 Dear Lew,
 As editor of Wrangell's news paper, the redoubtable Sentinel, :" you should be able to help me if you will. While l was stationed in Hawaii, l had the pleasure of see- ing some home movies in which l recognized the totem pole "Nachee Su Nay" Well, the upshot of it all was that the people at whose home I was in wanted the legend behind the totem. If l remember right, you printed the totem's story soon after it's restoration and if you have an old copy or two to spare to MT. Sydney J. Beers of Howl, Hawaii, it will really mean a lot as these people went out of their way 10 show myself and my buddies a good time. know that Cpl Shermer is still on the receiving end of the Sentinel as. yet, even though the copies hold off for quite while, then come all at once. Right now I'm sitting on my heels on the fair CD and trop- ic isle of Saipan and since the bat tie is over I have ceased to cover in the most convenient foxhole.
 Observed a very noisy '4th' here, althougt the people responsible for the fireworks were a little too en- thusiastic. Myself, I have found that a grenade or naval shell make a dangerous substitute for a tirecracker and some one is liable to get hurt; to be more specific, some of Tojo's imperial sons of heaven
 Here We call the Japs sons but I can assure you it's not of heaven
 Have heard from Cpl Alan Mel Kay of late and as he is shipping out, I would not be surprised tol meet him out here some day in the future. My Sgt. Major informed me that I am to receive the Purple Heart for the wounds received in this operation, the nature of which are not of great enough importance to even mention except for the fact that I just was in the wrong place at the right time. I'm still wonder ing how I came through an argu- ment (one-sided-his) with a Jap mortar as lightly as I did. Time and paper are limited so 'adios' and best wishes to everyone.

SELLERS OF SERVICES
 UNDER NEW 0PA RULE

Effective September l, control ot prices for service establishments in the Territory of Alaska will be transferred from the General Maxi mum Price Regulation to Revised Maximum Price Regulation l65- Services. This is according to an nouneement made today by Mildred .R. Hermann. Director of the Alaska office of Price Administration. MPR l65 became effective in the continental United States in July 1922, but Alaska was at that time exempted from it's provisions, and service establishments were lett under GMPR.
 Under the revised MPR 165 AL aska is covered. The mechanics of establishing ceiling prices under the Services Regulation are basi- cally the same as those contained in the GMPR. hence the sellers who have properly established their prices under the GMPR will main tain many Of them without change. However, in some eases prices will have to be predetermined, Mrs. Her man explained.
 All service establishments are re quired to keep existing records of actual prices charged during March, 1942, and all customary al lowances. discounts and other price differentials. The original copy must be kept in the establishment for examination by any person dur ing ordinary business hours and the copy filed with the War Price and
The Wrangell sentinel., 1944-08-25

Rationing Board or nearest field office
 Many service establishments filed reports of their ceiling prices under the GMPR although there was no such requirement. in the regulation. For obvious reasons these reports cannot be accepted as filings under the Services Regulation and every seller, regardless of whether he previously submitted a report, must file his ceiling prices For those who fail to comply with these re- quirements by October 1, 1g44, the OPA will set prices
 A trade manual explaining how to meet the requirements of the regulation has been prepared by the Alaska Office of Price Administra- tion This will be mailed to sery- ices establishments, together with copy of the regulation, within the next few days. Those not re- ceiying these by mail are advised to obtain theirs from their local War Price and Rationing Board or at the Territorial or District Of fees.
 RMPR 165 provides the usual penalties for noncompliance. but it is not expected that these will have to be invoked, Mrs Hermann stated. Careful study of the regu- lation and trade manual available to service sellers is urged. Any ad- ditional information needed will be furnished by any of the local board or field offices.

HUNGRY PARIS -
 AWAITED RELEASE
By Trudi Mccullough AP Features Writer

aE AEhbuANa HH 4AeaA
 This is the Paris that awaited the Allied armies
 A hungry city, grown hungrier since the invasion armies landed. Supplies from Brittany and Nor mandy, the nations larders, have ceased to flow into the capital.
 A city where almost any food can be had on the black market, but housewives cue up from 3 am. to dusk for their rutabaga and I25 grams of bread.
 Only Nazis and collaborationists can afford the black market, where a leg of lamb costs 1500-2O0O francs, a pound of butter l26O francs.
 Meat Is Scarce For Patriots
 For the patriot there is almost no meat. Milk is only to be had in hospitals, and eggs not at all. Early In the occupation some proyident citizens kept a hen in their apart enmts to insure eggs. But there was no grain and they were obliged to eat the hen"
 These facts coming from Andre I,abarthe, publisher of the French patriot magazine, TricolOr, are supplemented by an article in the current issue. From it a picture of Paris in the waning days of it's occupation can be drawn.
 At the cafes which remain open and busy, the French who have money to spend-sit at one table, the Germans at another, ignoring each other. There Is no coffee after p.m.. no chocolate before pm. CurfeW rings sometimes at 5 pm, sometimes at midnight. Those who miss the last subway must stay at the uightspots until dawn.
 Officers Flock To Maxim's
 At Maxims. which has become a social headquarters for high rank ing officers, prices are eight times what they were in l940. Horcher, the famous Berlin caterer, who at the Paris Worlds Fair in 1887 was chef at the German building, is ma jor domo at Maxim's.
 Prices here dictate a Nazi clien- teIe, but other cafes have been set aside for the Germans with orches- tras playing German music. Men delssohn is forbidden.
 Nazis In Civies At Night
 Large movie theaters like the Marignan, Le Paris, and Lutetia, also are reserved for the Germans. Other movie houses are heavily pa tronized by Parisians. They have proved to be popular meeting place for the Underground. Ii Nazis attend they do so in civilian clothes. Nearly all Germans dress in civilian clothes at night, re- ports Tricolor, it has been found safer"
