Price Of Cigarettes
Boosted a Half Cent
BY the Associoted Press

Retail cigarette prices are up to-
day-except on single-pack over
the-counter sales.
The price increase is half a cent
pack on multiple-pack sales,
cents on carton of 10, and / cent
pack on vending machine sales.
The reason for the higher prices
is an increase of almost so per cent
in tobacco costs since the start of
the war, OPA said, in announcing
the new schedule last night.
Manufacturers were given a price
boost of 25 cents a thousand Gig
aretteS.
At retail. popular brand cigarettes
will cost the same when only one
pack is purchased over the counter.
These include Camels, Lucky Strikes,
Chesterfelds, Philip Morris, Old
Colds and Raleighs.
But for two or more packs, the
price is up half cent a pack. For
example, two packs which previously
cost 26 cents now will sell for
| 27 cents.
| Heretofore so-called economy
brands, such as Avalons, Marvels
Twenty Grand and Wings, had a
uniform ceiling of 13 cents a pack
two for 25 cents. Under the new
schedule they will sell for 13 cents
straight.
Popular brands do not have uni
form ceilings. Instead, prices up tc
now have been frozen" at the
March, 1912, level. Ceilings vary
from store to store.

Italy Makes Arrests
In Removal Of Duce's 5
Body From Cemetery
By the Associotad Presx


ROME, April 25.-Interior Minis
ter Giuseppe Romita announced to-
day that "a few persons" have been
arrested in connection with the re-
moval of Benito Mussolini's body
from Milan potter's field.
Romita refused to identify the
persons arrested, saying he did not
want to interfere" with the inves-
tigation.
In Milan, Police Chief Umberto
Ferrante said two night watchmen
at the cemetery had been arrested,
but there was no indication whether
they were among the persons to
whom Romita referred. Ferrante
added that the investigation had
extended into the provinces far out
side Milan. Numerous gravediggers
have been questioned because the
exhumation was done with profess
sional skill, he said.
Romita denied reports that Musso-
lini's body had been given a secret
new burial at the former dictator S
birthplace at Predappio and as
serted there were no new clues to its
whereabouts.
In Rome, Italian police posted a
continual guard around the Palazzo
Venezia to thwart possible attempts
to slip the body into the Duce's for
mer headquarters.
Both Allied and italian vehicles
on the Rome-Milan highway were
carefully checked by police.
Rome newspapers meanwhile ques-
toned Romita's assertion yesterday
that "one man alone" knew the To-
cation of the unmarked grave from
which Mussolini's body was removed
Monday night. The papers asserted
that watchmen had unhesitatingly
pointed out the location to visitors
in the cemetery.

For Red Nickel Mines
By trs Assoeioted Pr.ss

nish- Russian communique disclosed
today that Finland had granted the
Soviet Union power station facilities

ceded to Finland in 1920, was re-
turned to the Soviet Union under
the terms of the Russian Finnish
armistice.
The power concession was granted.

discussions in Moscow by Premier
Mauno Pekkala during which GER
tain questions regarding Finland S
responsibilities toward the Soviet
Union under the armistice were ex-
amined."
The communique. issued follow
ing Pekkalas return to Helsinki,
said the Soviet Union had CON
sidered 1t possible to free Finland
from further restitution of property
taken from Russia during the war;
and had agreed to send Finland
100000 tons OF cereals in addition
to shipments of fertilizer. Russia

facilities with Finland, the bulletin
said.

tuition of Russian property was not
