 Fifth Boost

Washington, Aug. 13- UP) - O.P.A. today was preparing it's fifth, and possibly last, price increase on 1946 automobiles.
 It would restore to dealers their pre-war handling charges.
 Piled atop previous boosts, it was expected to lift ceilings 25 percent above l942 levels.
 The new increase, following a 7.3 percent average price rise approved by OP.A. yesterday, was expected to average 3 or percent. It is likely to add $50 to $50 to the cost of low priced car.
 The action is dictated by the new price control act, which also prompt ed yesterdays boost. It gave pre- war markups to dealers, who had been skipped by the first three in- creaseS which went to manufactur- CTS.
 Yesterdays increases ranged from $62 on a Chevrolet coupe to S322 on a Cadillac Imperial Sedan. It av- eraged $82 car. With previous in- creaseS it brought prices above 1942 levels by as little as $165 on a Crev- rolet Stylemaster and as much as $846 on a series 75 Cadillac.

Duce s Body Recovered

Milan, Aug. 13 - (UP) - The body of Benito Mussolini, unearthed from its pauper's grave here on April p by Fascist fanatics, was re- covered last night from the Certosa Convent at Pavia, 25 miles south of Milan, police reported early to- day.
 Officials apparently got their clue to the body's whereabouts from An tonic Parozzi. a 20-year-old Fascist who confessed last week that he and four others stole the corpse from it's first resting place.
 Police said they would hold the body in Milan until instructions were received from government off, cials in Rome. It was brought to po- lice headquarters in a reinforced trunk covered with two waterproof sacks. Attached to the makeshift coffin was a note signed Marco, which said the body had been buried twice since the first elimination in Milan. Marco" was identified as Domenico Lecissi, proclaimed founder of the Democratic Fascist Party, who was arrested several weeks ago.
 During his confession last week, Parozzi said the body was in an ad- vanced stage of decomposition when it was first exhumed. He said it was naked except for a pair of pants draped over the chest.
