OPA News
i (From the Juneau Office)
Four firms doing business in
Kodiak, Alaska, have felt the
impact of the Alaska OPA’s
newly acquired authority to roll
back prices that are out of line,
even though they were high in
that particular community dur
ing the base period, it was re
vealed today by Mildred R. Her
mann, Alaska Director of the
OPA.
This authority which is set up
in Revised Maximum Price Reg
ulation 194, is known as the Dir
ector's Initiative. It allows the
OPA director to order reductions
of price lines upon the basis of
substantiated facts showing such
action is needed. The action in
the Kodiak cases represents the
first use of this authority in
Alaska. In making the orders,
which cover reductions on cer
tain lines of men’s and boys’
clothing, it is pointed out that
prices on these commodities had
advanced sharply in Kodiak in
the fall of 1941, owing to the un
usually heavy demand brought
on by the influx of war workers
during that period. This situa
tion created inflated prices,
which were legal under Alaska’s
price regulation, although much
out of line with pi ices generally
prevelant.
The four firms affected were
the W. J. Erskine company, Ko
fi ak V ariety store, the Men’s
store, and 0. Kraft & company.
An additional order to the Ers
kine company directs a reduc
tion on drug, cosmetics and sun
dry Perns offered for sale in their
store.
The application of the Direct
or’s Initiative marks a signific
ant addition to the price control
program in Alaska, the OPA
pointed out. Further use of this
authority will iron out other
price inequities which have been
subject to considerable criticism
at ether points in the Territory.
Gravel fot the city streets and
the road up Carlson hill is being
hauled from the bay at the end
of Harbor avenue.
Miss Elinore E. Long, former
ly employed at Bert’s Drug store
here, was a June bride in Juneau,
where she has been employed at
the Juneau Drug store.
The bridegroom is W alter F.
! McKinnon, employe of the ifeli
able Transfer company.
