POTATO GROWERS GET
HIGHER PRICE

Producers of early white potatoes
will receive ceiling prices assuring
them of the same average return as
year ago and about II cents hun
bred weight above the legal minimum
price, it is announced by the Office
of Price Administration. At the same
time, however, consumers will find
that the average cost of this early
crop of potatoes will be the same
as retail prices of last season. The
action was needed to maintain produc-
ton at level sufficient to meet esti-
mated demands.

NEW CEILING PRICE LISTS
FOR RETAILERS

Supplemental, ceiling price lists
that will include all the changes that
have been made in the prices of dry
groceries since issuance of the cur
rent quarterly community ceiling
price lists will soon be forwarded to
food retailers in most areas, the Office
of Price Administration announces.
detectives of the additional lists is to
make it easier for retailers and con-
sumers to keep track of changes in
ceiling prices. Under this plan it will
only be necessary for grocers to post
two lists for dry groceries-the quar-
terly list and this supplement = in
stead of the larger number of separate
postings previously required Thus
it will be easier for housewives to
find the price of an item.

Light naptha, the petroleum product
normally used for cooking and light

control, effective November 20, in Is
midwestern states, the Office of Price
Administration states. This is being
done to prevent the illegal use of this
product as motor fuel-a practice

VACUUM CLEANER PRICE

Makers of new household vacuum
cleaners and attachments may agree
to sell these products at prices that
can be increased up to maximum
prices that will be in effect when the
cleaner is delivered, as result of
action taken by the Office of Price
Administration. Thus buyers can
place orders for the new cleaners and
manufacturers agree to deliver them
at the maximum price that will be
set by OPA when production begins.
However, the action specified that no
seller may deliver or make an agree
ment to deliver new vacuum cleaners
at prices to be adjusted upward in
accordance with a maximum price to
be set after delivery unless so author
lied by OPA. But no such authorize
