Price Ceiling
Information
Both wholesalers and retailers
selling breakfast cereals, coffee,
rice, lard and other grocery prod
ucts covered by the mark-up regu
lations (No. 237 and 238) Monday
were given additional time in
which to refigure their ceiling
prices and wholesalers were given
additional time to report them to
the Office of Price administration.
Wholesalers will be allowed to
' make necessary recalculations on
all maximum prices for products
under Maximum Price Regulation
No. 237, based on specified mark
ups over net costs, until April 15,
1943, and need not file these prices
with their OPA District or State
offices until April 25.
Retailers, previously required
under Maximum Price Regulation
No. 238 to set their new ceilings
by March 10, on most items, and
by December 31, 1942, on the oth
ers, now are permitted to make
such recalculations until May 1 for
all items. This action simply
lengthens the time in which the
retailer may make his changes in
price to the consumer already per
mitted by law.
The new amendment to MPR
238 also eliminates the necessity
for retailers to file ceiling prices
set in Appendix A and alters the.
provisions regarding the recording
of maximum prices for these com
modities. Retailers no longer are
required to record their ceiling
prices on form 338.1 but may in
stead register their prices on in
voices used in figuring their ceil
ing prices. These invoices must
be segregated or identified. The
requirement for filing ceiling
prices at retail for the items under
Appendix B of Maximum Price
Regulation No. 238 were eliminated
earlier.
For all items in Appendix B on
which a wholesaler or retailer has
jiot previously figured a ceiling
price under the two margin regu
lation, on and after March 1 and
prior to any sale thereof, he must
calculate a ceiling price by apply
ing the margin applicable to his
class of wholesaler or retailer, as
the case may be, to the “net cost”
of his most recent purchase.
If the net cost increases prior
to the final date set by the amend
ments for recalculation, or if the
net cost has advanced since he
figured his ceilings, the wholesaler
or retailer may refigure his ceiling
based on the new net cost.
The same requirement applies
to items in Appendix A if the
wholesaler or retailer decides to
determine his ceiling for these
items by applying the margin set
by the regulation.
Items covered under Appendix
A include breakfast cereals, rice
sugar, and canned vegetables. Un
der Appendix B, all such products
as dried fruits and lard.
The amendments thus enable
wholesalers and retailers to cal
culate new maximum prices for
items on which there have been
recent increases at the processor’s
level. It also will enable them to
set maximums for items not pre
viously sold by them and on which
the final dates for recalculating
expired prior to these amendments.
“In a move likely to be of par-1
ticular aid to the small neighbor
hood baker, the Office of Price
Administration has scrapped the
present March 1942 price ceilings
for pies, pastries, doughnuts, sweet
yeast raised goods, and all cakes
other than cookies, and replaced
them with a formula by means of j
which all distributors may secure
the same margin on these items
as realized during specified periods
in 1941 or 1942 in which the mark
ups were fair and equitable, war
ration officials announced Tuesday.
“Affecting every distributor,
ranging from the producer to the
small sweet shop, the change in
price coverage—will lift consumer
costs on these items from 5 to 15
per cent, depending on the indi
vidual March ceilings—are primar
ily designed for relief of the small
bakery store. While bread is the
largest sales item t or bakery while
salers, bread constitutes less than
20 per cent of the usual small
bakery shop’s total sales volume,
with pies, pastries, doughnuts and
cakes comprising the balance.
“Office of Price Administration
officials emphasize that there will
be no change in bread prices as
a result of the new order, with
individual stores’ March, 1942 max
imum prices continuing as ceilings
of that cost-of-living staple.
“Cookies have been specifically
excluded from the new order so
that they may be treated separ
ately in a more appropriate regu
lation. Advances in ingredients
and packaging costs since issuance
of the General Maximum Price
Regulation made necessary the
new method of calculating the
price ceilings for pies, pastries,
doughnuts, sweet yeast raised
goods and cakes under Maximum
Price Regulation No. 319 (Certain
Bakery Products), effective Feb
ruary 13, 1943. The ew regula

FOR D VISION
Night Blindness Almost
Eliminated By New
Russian Method
CHICAGO, Mar. 2.—UP)—Discov
ery of a quick way of adapting
eyes to darkness is aiding the Rus
sian army in night battle and rec
onnaissance operations, a Soviet
medical report related today.
Soviet physiologists are said to
have developed methods which al
ways result in maximum adapta
tion of the human eye to darkness
within five or six minutes, instead
of the 25 or 30 minutes usually
required.
Krikor Kekcheyev, Nikolai Dera
il a vin and Sergei Pilipchuk, all of
Moscow, made this report in an
article cabled to War Medicine,
published by the American Medi
cal Association.
“The present war has revealed
the immense and formerly inade
quately appreciated importance of
night battle and reconnaissance op
erations and hence the equal im
portance of night vision,” they
said.
“Until recently only one method
of shortening this period was
known. If before passing into dark
ness a person was kept in weak,
instead of bright light, it was pos
sible to reduce the period of adap
tation from 45 or 50 minutes to
25 or 30 minutes.
“Soviet physiologists now possess
methods which infallibly secure
maximum sensitivity not within
half an hour but within five or
six minutes after passage from
light to darkness.”

Violent Channel Duel
Rages Over Dover Area
FOLKESTONE, Eng., Mar. 2.—
(#>—One of the most violent cross
channel duels of the war raged for
an hour tonight, with British and
German big guns hurling salvo
after salvo over the misty Dover
strait.
Bursts of British shells, which
appeared to be exploding inland,
could be heard plainly on this side
of the channel. British batteries
started the shooting and the Ger
mans responded after a short
time.
The roll of gunfire was contin
uous at the height of the bom
bardment, sounding like heavy
thunderclaps. Most of the German
fire came from the Cap Gris Nez
and Boulogne areas.

look well to you because I am so
much better than I was when you
last saw me. But the doctor says
it will be another six or nine
months before he’ll discharge me
as cured.” She wished she could
drop this health story, now and
forever. She was heartily tired of
it. But she had to drag it up
just this once more.
“Very well, then. We can’t jeop
ardize your health, of course. I
guess if we’ve struggled along
without out you this long, a few
months more won’t matter.”
He began telling her what had
been going on while she was away,
and they talked until after
2 o’clock. Then she made up a
bed for him on the sofa. He valiant
ly assured her that he’d be very
comfortable, although the sofa was
a good six inches too short for
his long legs. But the guest room

“Ceiling prices must be printed
on all packaged baked products
under the regulation. This service
must be rendered by the producer
I for the retailer and must show the
| price which the consumer will pay
at his neighborhood bakery shop.
1 Sales to or by the Army or Navy
i of products covered by this regu
lation are exempt from price con
trol.”
Effective March 11, retail ceil
ing prices will be established on
eggs. The action was taken
through Amendment 4 to MPR No.
268. Maximum retail prices must
be figured each Thursday.
Independent retailers, with a vol
ume of less than $50,000 a year,
will multiply their net cost by 1.17;
retailers with an annual volume
of $50,000 but less than $250,000
will multiply cost by 1.15; chain
or super market retailers with a
volume over $250,000 will multiply
hv 1.12.
Maximum prices for wholesale
suppliers are established by Regu
lation No. 333, effective March 6.
As an example of the approxi
mate maximum retail prices which
any store may charge for large
Grade A eggs in cartons, from
March 11 through May, in Wil
mington, the price will be 52 cents.
Processed fish for merchants
with a volume of business under
$250,000 is 1.27; for chain and in
dependent retailers with volume
above $250,000, 1.21. •
Macaroni, by the same measure,
will be L32 and 1.26 respectively.
