WASHINGTON, March 11-(P)-
Looking back over nearly "a years

In a weekend statement announc.

mass of governmental confusion

0PA OPENS WAY
FOR PRICE JUMP
Chrysler, Ford, Hudson
Gets Permission To In
crease Car Ceilings

WASHINGTON. March 11-(P-
|OPA opened the way Monday for
higher prices on new automobiles
as the result of the revised wage
price policy.
The agency authorized the Chry-
sler, Ford. and Hudson companies
to sell their cars on an adjustable
pricing basis.
This means they may be sold by
both factories and dealers at pres
ent ceiling prices, with the provi-
sion that the buyer may be billed
later for any amount by which
OPA may increase ceilings.
New Prices
An OPA spokesman said there is
no indication at this time as to
how much the increase may be.
He said the higher prices would
be announced shortly.
The adjustable pricing order ap-
plies only to Chrysler, Ford, and
Hudson, the spokesman explained,
because these are the only COM
panies which have applied for
increases thus far. They are ask
ing higher prices to offset wage
increases granted by each of the
cturers.
As of Monday
The new order is applicable only
to cars produced by the three COM
panies beginning Monday. AL cars
produced and distrib-
uted must be sold at present prices,
OPA said.
The order covers all passenger
cars produced by Chrysler, Ford,
and Hudson. These are: Plymouth,
Dodge, DeSoto, Chrysler, Ford.
Mercury, Lincoln, and Hudson.
Higher prices for automobiles
had been predicted by Sterilization
Director Chester Bowles, Who has
stated that price increases under
the new wage-price policy could be
expected for consumer metal
products.
