New Auto Price Rise
To Increase Ceilings
.b% Over Levels
BY the Associated Press

OPA went to work today on
still another increase in auto
mobile prices-one slated to
push to around Is per cent the
total average increase over 1912
ceilings.
With authorized prices already
about % per cent higher than the
level of four years ago. OPA officials
met with dealer representatives to
threSh out the amount of the next
increase.
Like the average 73 per cent in
crease piled yesterday on top of
previous Is per cent rise, the i'm
minent additional price increase is
required by the new price control
law.
Yesterdays increases. ranging
from $62 to 1922 a car, restored deal
ers prewar profit margins, as or
dered by Congress. OPA had cut
these before the controversy began
over whether to keep the price con-
troll agency in existence.
Increase About Right.
Now OPA has to re- establish deal
erS' preWar handling charges. which
1t also reduced. These charges cover
the expense of a final check-up on
new cars.
OPA officials previously had esti-
mated that the handling charge ad-
JuStment would require a further 5
per cent increase in retail ceilings.
Today they revised this downward
to about per cent.
I Lee W. Moran. executive secretary
| OF the National Automobile Dealers
ASSOCIATION, agreed that a 3 per cent
additional increase is about right. -
Mr., Moran told a reporter that
the average handling charge before
the war was about per cent. He
said OPA had cut this to about 2
/ per cent.
| Asked whether dealers expect anv
buyer resistance to steadily climbing
prices for new cars, Mr.. Moran said
they do not.
Believes Public Is Agreeable.
He expressed belief the public is
Wiling to pay the higher prices,
which he said are only high enough
to allow manufacturers and dealers
to make a fair profit"
Mr.. Moran predicted that prices

ductlon gets back to normal" The

than before the war.
Inc auto price increase on tap
will be the fifth on top of 1912
ceilings since last November.
In addition 10 yesterdays profit
restoring increase. there have been
increases to offset % a rise in labor
ana materials costs during war, az
wage increases granted early this
year, and t3l higher steel prices
authorized in February.
Following its announcement of the
7-3 per cent increaSe-an averae pc
OF s82 a car-OPA released figures
late yesterday showing that ceilings
on four-door Sedans now range from
S134 higher on a Hudson to s846
higher on a Cadillac than ceilings
on comparable 1912 models.
The increases over June 80 CELL
lngs on these four-door models
range from $50 on a Chevrolet to
S293 on a Cadillac.
New Prices Listed.
oPA listed new and previous CELL
lngs, together with the amount of
increase, on four-door sedans of all
makes. These prices do not include
Federal excise taxes handling and
