' WMM &- OF POPULAR PRICED FURS Peacetime Goods Flow Puis Crimp In Black Marketeers WASHINGTON, Aug, 28 fP) Black markets were crumbling Into thin air today because moro peacetime goods were com ing tip fast. Black markets, prices, used cars, new cars, chickens, toys, and men winning Jobs those wcro big subjects for Americans exactly two weeks after Japan throw in tho spongo. More Autos Reputable dealers in used cars and chickens said black markets In those fields arc storting to dis appear. Thut's because shiny new.autos arc on the way and there will bo plenty of chickens for your dinner table "very soon. Government officials added that black markets in food arc dwindling, and will fall away in all fields as shortages case up because: If a person can buy the things he wants In honest stores at reasonable prices he Isn't tempted to pay some chls clcr moro than the legal price celling. ' Price News Speaking of prices, there was this prime news about them to day: 1. On used cars, they havo fi nally started down. 2. On new cars, they will be at about the same levels as in 1042 says OPA. 3. On goods in general, an army of retailers invaded Wash ington to protest that tho OPA is trying to hold their prices be low what they can stand. From all Indications, the OPA reply wat to be a flat "No." As the retail spokesman met with OPA officials, the issue was this: Tho OPA has ruled that pric es of new goods not produced In wartime must be at, or near, 1042 levels. In many Instances the OPA is allowing manufac turers to charge more because their production costs have gone up. But retailers and wholesal ers are supposed to "absorb" these Increases so the public won't suffer. Some more developments In j PILES Refrigeration I SUCCESSFULLY TREATED I Fmiinmenf Trt . ' :..
