OPA Price Check Explained The national emergency price check is an intensified, coordin ated OPA board activity designed to give an accurate, nation-wide picture of prices . charged on spe cific items, and to impress upon every individual American their stake in price control. The principal point of differ ence between this emergency sur vey and the regular price surveys is its increased scope. For ex ample — the first survey will cov er every food retailer in the na tion during the week of March 13-18. Later surveys will cover other types of establishments. Purpose of Price Check The basic purpose of the na tional survey is to correct out-of line prices at the retail level', as well as to improve compliance with posting requirements on point values and prices. This sur vey will, more than ever before, focus the attention of our ’citi zens and merchants on the job their local price panels are doing to keep down the cost of living. For the protection of all, this job has to be done. The honest merchant already realizes that he has much to gain from the survey, for he too is a consumer. He re alizes that the survey protects him from the chiseler and lessens the possibility of being sued for treble damages on innocent over charges. Those Who Are In It DOESN’T LIKE NEW GUINEA In a letter received by Emil Messing from Tom Bateman, who is now in New Guinea, he says he is sending Mr. Messing a piece of wood, out of which he wishes Mr. Messing to make something which will, in the future, remind him never to return to New Guinee.

Many times this is the re sult of an oversight on the part of the merchant or a lack of un derstanding of correct pricing pro cedure. In such cases the merchant has intended no wrong. Inflation, however, is a matter of fact and not intent. The result of such vi olations is succinctly expressed by this recent statement in a de cision on a price control Case handed down by the United States Court of Appeals, District of Columbia: “Innocent non-conformity with the Price Control Act is as infla tionary and as damaging to com petitors and the public as guilty non-conformity.” Heath’s Service Station At the height of ship sinkings in the Atlantic during two months early in 1843, several million or dinary letters sent overseas were lost, the Army said.
