Price Control Suspended
Commenting on the possible
effect of the recent announcement
that prices -on. 300 various Iteme,
including goods and services, have
been suspended frown price ceiling
regulations, W. Harold McPhillips,
prices and supply representative for
Western Ontario, states that he
anticipates no sudden increase in
prices.
Ile based lois opinion on two
factors --first, the announcement of
the government that there would be
no hesitation in se -imposing price
ceilings if any unreasonable price
advances occurred and, secondly, on
the fact that the great majority of
goods and services which are now
being suspended from the price
ceiling are in reasonable good supply
and in many oases their • production
is at record levels. In some cases
there may even be a drop in present
levels,
The suspensions from the price
ceiling apply to imported goods as
well as t -o domestic goods, Many
of them are in the luxury class and
prior to the war were imported in
considerable quantities. Suspension
of their ceiling prices will probably
result in an increase in the volume
of these imports.
It is anticipated that controls on
rentals, essential clothing and foods
will be maintained until supplies are
sufficient to meet demand and the
danger of advanced prices through
competition among consumers is
Past.

With a few enteeptlotus among'

must make their allocation for the

the end of April, This, Plan has
been made necessary to ...urther safe-
guard the consumer butter ration
until 'the spring seasonal increase
in domestic production, This rut in
supply nuary mean that some eating
Places may have to discontinue the
serving of butter at some meals.
