The Control Plans For Inventory Are Prospect Inventory control, probably a more serious matter for retailers than the existing price control, is in prospect late this year, or early in 1843, members of the Salem Retail Trade bureau were told at their Friday luncheon by Edward N. Weinbauin, . manager of the Portland Retail Trade bureau. He voiced opinion that this Would be necessary for the protection of small, independent merchants. : Impressions gained at a national convention of retailers were re layed by the speaker, among them the expectation that wartime con trols, would; continue for- two or three years after the war ends, that merchandise volume this year would sink to the 1935 level and next year to the 1933 level; that retailers must seek, their salvation through economies in operation such as curtailment of deliveries and gift packaging; : that price ceilings constitute a protection for merchants as well as for custo mers; mat uua wui nave no "army of snoopers but depend on purchasers to. police the ceilings, and that there will be no uncon trolled inflation. He said the federal sales tax idea was "not dead." Frank Nan. chairman of the board of the Portland bureau,' and C. T. Haas, its legal counsel, ex plained the organization's arrange ments for obtaining prompt and authoritative OPA rulings. Vaughn Offers Information To Merchants on Price Lists All information needed by required statements of ceiling office in the council chambers of the city hall, John F. Vaughn, executive secretary of the county-city war price and rationing board, declared Friday as he urged merchants to comply with national orders by filing their statements at once. "There seems to be a lot of con fusion among the merchants and dealers as to the ' necessity and methods of filing statements of ceiling prices in each individual business," he declared. These statements must be filed at once at the office of the war price and rationing board in Salem (not sent to the OPA office in Portland), either to be typewritten "or -written in ink (not lead pencil) and should be on standard sixe 8 x 10 pa per. "We have an ample supply of bulletin No. 2 "What Every Deal er Should now," that explains in detail the rules ton filing these statements and our office will be glad to assist in any way possi ble. "We realize that the filing of these statements is making a lot of additional work at a very busy season, but as this is one of the requirements in the vast national war price and rationing program they must be completed at once. It will be necessary to keep these statements up to date on the first day of each month, showing any new commodity offered for sale during the previous month. Closed today and Sunday, the war price and rationing office Monday should be flooded with merchants and managers of indus tries and Institutions, staff and volunteer workers there antici pate. Merchants, requested to file their ceiling price statements by July 1 have, in the main, declared themselves uninformed and failed to do so, they said, while Monday is the final date for the bi-month ly registration of managers of in dustries and institutions for sugar rations; later 'registration is to bring a penalty. ' Work by COs, Aliens Urged Utilization of conscientious ob jectors and enemy aliens in har vesting the nation's crops was urged by Herman E. Lafky, com mander, department of Oregon, Veterans of Foregn Wars, in a telegram sent to Sen. Charles L. McNary Friday. . Lafky asserted all conscientious objectors and enemy aliens should immediately be forced to supply the farm labor shortage, at going wages, with earnings to be applied to the cost of feeding and super vision. - ' ' Following the crop crisis Lafky said all'1 conscientious objectors and enemy aliens should receive the same treatment as prisoners of war, with the conscientious ob jectors assigned to non-combatant service.
