the wartime shortage might have

100 Garment Makers
Lose Priorities in
|CPA Low-Price Drive
BY the Associated press.

Ry the Associated Press.
The Civilian Production Admins
tration yesterday took action against
more than 100 garment firms which
the agency said are "hampering the
low-cost clothing program"
CPA asserted these manufactur-
ers. located from coast to coast, are
"misusing priorities" and tempo
rarily suspended their right to any
priority ratings for the purchase of
textiles. 1t added that the suspen-
sion order would remain in effect
pending completion of an investiga-
ton and a hearing
CPA pointed out that manufac-
turers participating in the low-cost
clothing program agreed to abide by
certain quality and sales price CELL
ings.
The agency said investigations by
its compliance division had dis
closed that the suspended manufac-
turers had "kited" their ratings by
from so to as much as 400 per cent
This means, a CpA spokesman said
that they obtained more materials
in some cases, than they were au-
thorized to accept.
Manufacturers covered by the
suspension were directed by tele-
gram to cancel Immediately all out
standing rated textile orders fol-
fabrics in excess of those authorized
for the current quarter of this year
They were further directed to place
no rated orders for textiles during
the first three months of next yeal
unless specifically authorized by
CPA to do SO.
The agency said that due to the
tight supply of materials suitable
for low and medium priced clothing
manufacturers who have violated
rating regulations will be hare
pressed to get any textiles without
ratings"
Any cases which reveal willful
violations will be referred to the
Department of Justice for criminal
action, CPA said, adding that some
cases already are in preparation.
