COMPLETES
NOME VISIT

Completing a week's visit to
Nome, Mrs. Mildred R. Hermann
Alaska director of the Office of
Price Administration, left Wed
nesday by plane for Fairbanks,
from where she will go on to
Anchorage early next week.
During her visit to Nome, Mrs.
Herman held a meeting for ser
vice tradesmen, conferred with
the local war price and rationing
board on various matters affect
ing the OPA program in Nome,
and held numerous interviews
with merchants, landlords, ten
ants anti members of the general
public She also gave a radio
broadcast over Station WXLN
and appeared personally before
members of the Horne Arte Worn
ans’ Club. ,
Mrs. Hermann expressed her
self as generally pleased with the
progress of the OPA program at
Nome. “Prices generally are pret
ty well in line,” she stated.
“Though there are a few out of
line, there no evidence of wil
ful violations or flaunting of OPA
regulations. Prices, however, are
not well, posted and a number of
merchants have failed to submit
required reports. This condition
we hope to correct shortly
through the work of the local
board.
Nome has a very representative
board, she declared. Plans were
developed while she was here for
further expansion of price and
activities. She pointed out that
under the procedure evolved by
Chester Bowles, national price
administrator, compliance at the
retail level will oe largely the re
sponsibility of the price panel.
“Only in case of wilful violations
or flat refusal to comply, will re

lad price matters be turned ever
[ to the enforcement division," sh
said.
Mrs. Hermann also stressed the
necessity of consumer support and
active participation in the price
control program. “We have now
set flat prices on approximately
two thousand food commodities
commonly used in the average
Nome home,” she said. “All Nome
merchants handling these com
modities are required to charge
these prices and Co keep them
posted where they are visible to
the purchaser. Lists of these
prices are available at the OPA
office in the Federal Building.
Housewives and other shoppers
are urged to secure these lists
and to check their purchases by
them. They can help keep prices
stable in Nome by cooperating
with the OPA in this manner.”
Concerning the role of OPA in
post-war America, Mrs. Her
mann stated that controls would
be relaxed gradually “We do not
forget,” she said, “that in the last
war prices reached their highest
peak almost two years after the
armistice was signed.
Post-war inflation could quick
ly swallow up the savings of the
people. We shall continue tho
controls we have at present and
set new ones on durable goods
that will be manufactured after
the war, until such time as
enough goods are produced to re
duce pressures on prices,” she
said.
Fine plastic powders have been
found by U. S. Bureau of Mines
workers to be a patential new
source of factory fires and ex
plosions.
