To Be Set By OPA
WASHINGTON, Aug. 3 OPi
Restaurant prices under the
new OPA law "will vary too
much and too often," in the
opinion of OPA. to make it
worthwhile to require the post
ing of ceiling prices.
An OPA announcement of
last night said that price ceil
ings on restaurant meals will
be put on a fixed basis again
if ceilings are restored on meats,
dairy products and other foods
now decontrolled.

PAID at $10,000 a year. ,
VWE should keep clear In our j
" minds WHY we get incoin- j
polenta in congress. It is because :
we VOTE for the WRONG KIND
of men. I
NE of the things wrong with j
congress is admirably Ulus-1
trated by the vote of Representa
tive Angell (of the Multnomah
county, Oregon, district) on this
pay increase. He voted against
it because (he said) he felt that
if members of congress are to get
a raise lower-paid employees of
government should get a raise
first.
Maybe he meant it. But it
would have been interesting to
see what he would have done if
his had been the deciding vote.
As it was, he knew the bill was
going to pass and so he might as
well get the credit of voting
against it because he was GO
ING TO GET THE RAISE ANY
WAY. One of Omar Khayyam's fa
mous lines advises: "Ah, take the
cash and let the credit go. nor
heed the music of a distant
drum." Angell goes Omar one
better and takes BOTH cash and
credit
That is a basic form of insin
cerity that has always been far
too common in congress. In these
days, as never before, we need
WHOLLY SINCERE men there.

this time of a flour subsidy which
lapsed July 1, and from "the
fact that the price of wheat hus
gone above June ceilings." There
are no price controls at present
on wheat or other basic grains.
To compensate, OPA raised
millers' flour ceilings $1.11 a
hundred pounds east of the
Rocky mountains and $1.24 on
the west coast. This boosts re
tail flour ceilings at least a cent
a pound, the agency said.
While OPA was pushing up
ceilings, the price decontrol
board invited consumer groups
and industry representatives to
air their views on whether ceil
ings should be restored after
August 20 on meats, dairy prod
ucts, grains, cottonseed and soy
beans.
The board announced that pub
