Firms Selling Services Must File Ceiling Price Lists

NEWARK — The thousands of businesses rendering services to New Jersey consumers are required to file lists of their maximum prices and descriptions of their pricing methods with War Price and Rationing Boards by September 10. This was announced by the Office of Price Administra-

tion.

Price officials explained that the filing of maximum price lists by firms rendering consumer services in accordance with the provisions of "Maximum Price Regulation No. 165” which sets the prices of consumer services at March, 1942s levels. The list of 61 categories of consumer services affected by the ruling includes repair and maintenance of automobiles, bicycles, boats, houses, clothing, farm equipment, household appliances, and many others. The price of many services such as laundry, dry cleaning, carpentry, *tailoring and landscaping are also affected by the law. For the guidance of the .many businesses which must compile and file maximum price lists, OPA headquarters outlined the following information and instructions: 1. Your statement of ceiling prices for your services should include the following points: (a) A list of all services you supplied during March, 1942, for which you regularly quoted prices in that month, together with a complete description of each. (a) The highest prices you charged -for -such services during March, 1942. (c) The rate, or the pricing method and charges, if any, which you regoiarly used during March, 1942. The term “rate” means the charge per unit for supplying a service, such as five cepts a pound for wet wash, or. five cents a square foot for washing a rug. (d) The customary allowances, Hiscounts, and other price differentials which you gave during March, 1942. (e) You are required to keep this list up to date by adding the above information concerning any new services you instituted after March, 1942. 2. After September 1, 1942 you must keep this statement at hand, available for examination by any person during ordinary business hours. You must file a copy of this statement either in person or by mail on or before September 10, 1942, with your War -Price and Rationing Board. 3.

Draft Appeal Is Turned Down

A draft appeal filed by the government appeal agent was rejected by the Appeal Board at Camden this week, which ruled that Richard I. Garty, 23, of Wildwood Crest, should be classified as 1-A rather than 4-D as previously rated. . Carty sought jdeferment on the ground that he was a first reader in a Christian Science Church and therefore should be accorded the same treatment as other ministers. After the appeal was filed by the appeal agent to determine the correctness of his classification, he was ordered into the group available for immediate service.
