0PA PLANS MEET
ON FREEZE ORDER

The local War Price and Ration
| ing Board yesterday announced
plans for trade meeting on April
5, at pm, to assist local mer-
chants in complying with last
nights OPA order for retail stores
selling clothing textiles, furniture
and house furnishings to freeze
their price mark-ups at the level
prevailing Monday.
The local board announced that
if had received instructions con-
corning the new program for price
control on apparel and house furnl-
shings, except certain items COW
cred by other regulations.
According to board officials
the program involves sending a
copy of the regulations to every
merchant in the area dealing IN
the designated type of goods and
will be effected by the local board
through a merchants committee,
headed by E. H. Switzerland OF
the Penney Co.
Copies will be delivered on
Thursday and Friday and any af-
fected merchants who do not re-
ceive them by Friday are asked
to notify the board.
After copies are in the hands
of the merchants, it was explained.
the trade meeting will be held at
the courthouse. A representative
from the district OPA office in
Raleigh will explain the plan and
answer the questions of the group.
In order that local merchants
may be assisted in setting up
their price charts under the pro
gram, a committee of six mer-
chants will be named by the
price panel of the local board to
make a special study of the reg
ulation and answer questions after
the April 5 meeting.
1t is expected by board officials
that operations of the new pro-
gram will simplify the matter of
pricing on wearing apparel and
house furnishings.
All merchants are asked to read
their copies of the regulation
thoroughly before the meeting.
The chairman of the board ex-
pressed himself as feeling that,
after the merchant had his price
chart made, it would be very
much easier for him to keep in
line" than at present.
