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.
