But In doing to, the agency followed only In part a recom mendation of the senate banking committee, which voted to wipe out ceilings on meals made up of foods on which there are no price controls. OPA issued an order which simply allows new menu prices to reflect the full amount of any higher costs stemming from the removal of price ceilings on food items. The order is effective immedi ately, but it will have little effect on restaurant prices right away. The reason is that there are not many food items exempt from price control at this time. But OPA officials said the new regulation means the cost of din ing out probably will go up sharply if ceilings are stripped from meat, poultry, eggs and dairy products. The senate com mittee has recommended remov al of these controls July 1. A decision by the full senate is expected by nightfall. How much the cost of major food items might go up if ceil ings were removed has been the subject of much controversy. Stabilization Director Chester Bowles has estimated that meat prices would jump 40 to SO per cent. At present only a few feed items come within the scope of the revised regulation. Ceilings on lobsters and most kinds of fish have been removed, for ex ample. This means menu prices may be based on the cost of these items. An OPA official who withheld use of his name said the new order provides "the only just way" of handling restaurant prices and at the same time "maintaining any semblance of control." Commenting on this and other changes in the price regulation covering public eating places, the National Restaurant association said in a statement that the re vision "will not mean increased menu prices." However, a spokesman for the organization told a reporter later that this view was based on present circumstances and did not take into consideration the Joins Firm Al Eighmy. who has joined Dimbat Motors a general man ager, according to George Dim bat, owner of the firm. Eighmy has been districts service man ager for the Chrysler corpor ation for the past two yean with headquarters in Portland, and had extensive experience in the automotive field as parts manager, salesman and service manager before joining the Chrysler organisation. During the war he was with the air technical training command training air force personnel in B29 maintenance. possibility that ceilings may be removed on major foods. The restaurant changes went into effect as government econ omists estimated that house wives' costs for major foods have climbed in recent weeks at the rate of $485,000,000 a year.
