Asks Continuance
OF Price Control

In a statement issued last
week, L. M. A. Wass, district
OPA director with headquart-
ers in Helena, asked Montanans
to support price control
After stating that it was hop
ed that all rationing could be
ended soon, Mr.. Wass said.
1.-THE same is not true of
price control. Our price job to-
day IS not true of price control.
Our price job today Is a hun
dred' times more Important
that it was before. We must
maintain strict price control
over food. clothing and all
other commodities which go to
make up the cost of living. We
must control prices on many
goods which are returning to
the market.
I'VE might very easily see,
as We did after the arnistice
in 1918, a few months where
prices will remain fairly steady
or even say to some extent.
People, as they did then, could
begin to feel that the initiation
airy threat was over, and if, as
after World War I, we allow
initiation to get a firm foothold
we will surely experience the
same disaster that brought all
OF us so much needless suffer-
ing and misery before. You will
recall that after the last war
prices rose a third higher than
they did during the war period
and continued high until June
of 1920. You will remember that
after the break in prices in 1920
over 100000 businesses failed,
100000 farmers lost their farms
and millions Of laborers were
unemployed.
IF we are to prevent this
from happening again it calls
for new energy, new initiative
and new determination on your
part as well as ours. without
the Splendid cooperation given
the OPA 10y business men of
Montana during the war period,
1t would have been impossible
to have had effective price
control. Naturally, we in OPA
will have to be more vigorous
and more of our time will be
devoted TO price control in the
months Immediately ahead. We
wanted you to know this and
again ask your cooperation. If
we fail to jointly carry out the
price control program during
the postwar period we will nave
lost our fight against initiation
to the detriment of ajl--busi-
ness man. farmer, laborer and
consumer.

most of the dealings are with
the press, an ex-newspaperman
gets the job.
If he's doing a good job he
knows everything that's going
on in an agency and is present
when top policy is being form
