iWatch Papers for
Food Prices Until
OPA Puts Out Book
By JAMES MAHLOW and GEORGE ZIELKE
WASHINGTON, Mny 4 (!) You will receive In duo llmo
booklets containing dollars unci cents prices of food In your
neighborhood stoic, but
Mounwhlln you hud bettor look In your naWNpupcri for that
information, nn OPA apokemmin Indicated lodny,
Prenthw Brown, OPA bom, hai announced:
1. Ho would put specific dollars nnd cents prlcci on certain
commodltlpii to linen down tho cost of living,
2, Ho would roll buck tho price "which huvo not out of
hand" mid In thin cnlt-uory Included meat, fresh und canned
vrKotnniaa, corrco,
3, Ills ntfoncy would publish
tho prices in booklals to bo dls
trlbutod to housowlvos so they
would know tho legal prlco of
what thoy buy.
But tho OPA spokesmun suld
tho Job of ti.nioinbllng the Infor
mation nnd printing tho book
lets was so huge Hint t lie prices
would bo ovullublo to tho news
papers some tlmo buforo tho
booklets apponrod.
Prices Vary
"Tho food prices," ho sulci,
"undoubtedly will vary from
section to suction, since the fuc
tors covorlng costs vary from
section to section."
Even before Brown's stutc
mont last week, tho OPA hud
arranged to put dollars nnd
cents prices on beef Into effect
Mny 17, tho country to bo di
vided Into zones nnd with two
sots of prices: One for tho smull
dealer, another for tho large
dealers, like chuln stores.
So fur, even with certain
government controls In force,
prices have ndvnnccd.
Example Bhown
Hero nro examples ojt how
prices In some of the Items
mentioned by Brown ns duo for
a roll-bnck hnve Increased since
war sturtcd late In the summer
of 1930, The prices listed us
averago for the country were
compiled by tho Bureau of La
bor statistics whose uRenls
chock 25 to 75 stores in SI
cities ranging from New York
to Butte, Mont.
Tho prices of beef like
round steak, rib roust, chuck
roast and venl cutlet nil
moved forward. Hound steak
wns 38.4 cents a pound In Au
gust, 10:i0, went to 44.2 cents
by Mny, 1043, climbed a little
more to 44. S by October, 1042,
and wns nt 40.3 in February,
1043, last month for which the
bureau has figures.' ;
Nolo: Beef nad been under
government control since May,
1042, when tho OPA Issued lis
general maximum price regu
lation but it continued to ad
vance, "General Max"
That "general max" meant:
Tho price of meat oftor May,
1042, was to bo no higher thnn
tha highest price in the pro
ceding March (1042).
Thus, as tho OPA specified,
It was under a "general" ceil
ing but not under dollars and
cents control which would have
limited tha price to be changed
to to many cents a pound.
Potatoes rose from 34 cents
for 15 pounds In August, 1030,
to 83.1 In May, 1042, slid to
28.2 In October, 1042, and went
up to 20,3 by February of this
year.
Tills fresh vegetable has been
undor "mark-up control slnco
October and at tho sumo time
became extremely senrco In vn
rlous sections of tho country,
Mark-Up Control
This Is how tho mark-up con
trol works:
Tho shipper Iho man who
gathers potatoes from tho form
er Is under OPA dollars nnd
cents limits on the prices ho
enn charge tho wholesaler to
whom he ships tho vcgotnblo.
The wholesaler must pay the
freight cost and still sell nt a
profit to the retailer, So, to the
purchaso prlco ha pnld the
shipper, tho OPA allows tho
wholesaler to add tho freight
cost plus a limited murgin for
profit. That is the mark-up
control.
Then the retailer neighbor
hood storekeeper buys from
tho wholesaler nnd, since he
must make a profit, tho OPA
lots him add to n certain mar
gin of profit. In other words, he
Is marking up the price at
which ho bought from tho
wholesaler.
