MAX LAWRENCE & CO.Suspension Order No. S-796 was is­

sued against Max Lawrence and Com­pany, a partnership composed of Max Lawrence and Elsie Lawrence, 13 West 37th Street, New York City, engaged as a “converter” of textiles. There was an appeal to the Chief Compliance Com­missioner who granted a stay and on July 31, 1945, denied the appeal and re­instated the suspension order to run through March 9, 1946. The appeal has again been considered and, as a result of further investigation, the Chief Com­pliance Commissioner has directed that the suspension order be revoked forth­with.

[Priorities Reg. 32, as Amended Jan. 22, 1946] INVENTORIES

(a) What this regulation does.

General Restrictions(b ) Restriction on delivery.(c) Restrictions on receipts.(d ) Restriction on ordering more than

needed.(e) Adjusting outstanding orders when

requirements change.( f ) Restriction on processing.

Exceptions(g ) In general.(h ) Receipts permitted after contract can­

cellations or cut-backs.

Miscellaneous Provisions( i ) Previous inventory authorizations.(J) Separate inventories.(k ) Redistribution of excess inventories.( l ) Violations.(m ) Revisions of tables.(n ) Appeals, letters and questions.

§ 944.53 Priorities Regulation 32— (a) What this regulation does. This regula­tion contains the inventory rules for­merly in § 944.14 of Priorities Regula­tion 1 and in CMP Regulation 2. Its pur­pose is to prevent excessive inventories by restricting ordering, deliveries, receipts and processing of materials in short sup­ply. All kinds of materials are covered including raw or semi-fabricated mate­rials, commodities, equipment, acces­sories, parts, assemblies or products of any kind, whether or not acquired with priorities assistance.

The general rule on receipts is in para­graph (c) (1), and this is controlling un­less a more specific limitation or excep­tion is indicated in Table 1 or 2 or a direc­tion to this regulation, or unless Table 3 (formerly Order M-161) exempts the material entirely. Other exceptions to the inventory limitations are stated in paragraphs (g) and (h) and in directions to this regulation.

General Restrictions(b) Restriction on delivery. No per­

son may deliver any material if he knows or has reason to believe that acceptance of the delivery would be in violation of this regulation.

Note: For rule on making or delivering material earlier than required 6y customers, see Interpretation 3.

(c) Restrictions on receipts— (1) Gen­eral rule. A person may not accept de­livery of any material if his inventory of that material is, or will be, more than a practicable minimum working inven­tory reasonably necessary to meet his own deliveries or to supply his services on

the basis of his current or scheduled method and rate of operation.* Note: For rule on when material is con­sidered to be in inventory, see Interpretation 4; for rule as to seasonal industries, see Interpretation 1.

(2) Special rules in Tables 1 and 2. I f Table 1 at the end of this regulation shows a special inventory limit on a particular material or product (either specifically or by reference to another CPA order or regulation), that limita­tion governs and the restrictions of para­graph (c) (1) above may be disregarded unless the applicable order or regulation (or a note in Table 1) also states that a practicable minimum working inventory may not be exceeded. The same is true with respect to particular classes of per­sons shown on Table 2. Where a spe­cific period of time is shown on Table 1 or 2, no person affected may accept delivery of any material specified if his inventory of it is, or will be, more than he needs during the immediate period specified on the basis of his current or scheduled method and rate of operation. Even if an order or regulation is not listed on Table 1 or 2, any specific inven­tory limits imposed by it must be com­plied with. I f an order or regulation listed on Table 1 or 2 is revoked or a list­ing removed from the tables all provi­sions of this regulation, including para­graph (c) (1), are automatically appli­cable.

(3) Early delivery of steel, iron prod­ucts, copper and copper base alloys. Early delivery, up to 15 days before the requested delivery month, may be ac­cepted from a producer of steel, iron products, copper or copper, base alloys (in the forms listed on Table 1), but the producer may not make the early de­livery if it would interfere with any rated orders. Other special rules on these materials are explained in Table 1.

(d) Restriction on ordering more than needed. ( 1 ) A person may not place any order, whether rated or unrated, for de­livery of any material on earlier dates or in larger amounts than he would be per­mitted to receive under this regulation. Orders aggregating more than he is al­lowed to receive may not be placed with different suppliers even though he in­tends to cancel one or more of them be­fore delivery. However, this restriction does not apply to materials listed on Table 3 of this regulation nor to pur­chases by ultimate consumers foi* per­sonal or household use. The restriction does not forbid the placing of orders for delivery under the conditions explained in Interpretation 11 to Priorities Regula­tion 1, but such orders may not be sched­uled for production as long as this re­striction is effective.

(2) This restriction does not require immediate adjustment of orders placed before August 28,1945. However, in view of its policy to prevent hoarding and speculative buying of materials in short supply, the CPA may direct adjustments or cancellations in individual cases where orders are in excess of reasonably antici­pated needs especially where failure to do so might result in unbalanced distribu­tion and curtail total production.

(3) I f the inventory limits applying to any material are made more restrictive,

whether by a change in Table 1 or other­wise, any person affected must immedi­ately cancel, reduce or defer any order for the material to the extent that the scheduled delivery would result in an in­ventory greater than permitted by the new restriction and other applicable pro­visions of this regulation.

(e) Adjusting outstanding orders when requirements change. I f because of a change in operations, slowing or stoppage of production, delayed delivery by a supplier, or any other change in re­quirements, a person who has ordered material for future delivery would, if he accepted delivery on the date specified, exceed the limits prescribed by this regu­lation, he must promptly adjust his out­standing orders, and, if necessary, post­pone or cancel them. Paragraph (h) be­low describes what further deliveries may be accepted.

(f ) Restriction on processing. No person may process, fabricate, alloy or otherwise alter the shape or form of any material if his inventory of the material in its processed, fabricated, alloyed or otherwise altered shape or form is, or will be, more than a practicable mini­mum working inventory. However, this does not restrict a person from altering the form of surplus materials by scrap­ping or reprocessing them, unless a CPA order specifically says otherwise.

Exceptions(g) In general. This paragraph, par­

agraph (h) below, and certain directions to this regulation state general excep­tions to the restrictions on acceptance of delivery described in paragraph (c) above, and to all other inventory restric­tions on delivery and acceptance of de­livery in CPA orders and regulations unless they contain specific provisions to the contrary. None of these or any other exceptions to CPA inventory re­strictions on receipts permit a supplier to disregard any applicable CPA order or regulation which restricts production or delivery.

(1) Exemption of Table 3 materials. Materials listed on Table 3 at the end of this regulation may be delivered and accepted without regard to CPA inven­tory restrictions.

(2) Materials bought under PR-13. Priorities Regulation 13 provides a lim­ited exemption from inventory restric­tions in the case of items bought on spe­cial sales.

(3) Imported materials. A person may import any material without regard to CPA inventory restrictions, but i f his inventory of it thereby becomes in ex­cess of the amount permitted by this regulation, he may not receive further deliveries of it from domestic sources/un­til his inventory is reduced to permitted levels. The inventory restrictions of this regulation do apply to any deliveries of the imported material he makes, and to the amount of it that any person ac­cepting delivery from him may receive.

(4) Advance stockpiling for civilian production. A person may receive in anticipation of starting or resuming ci­vilian production the minimum amount

876 FEDERAL REGISTER, T h u rs d a y , J a n u a ry 24, 1946

of material he would need during the first 30 days of such production, provided no priorities assistance is used to get the material. Records of such receipts and the basis on which they were computed must be preserved as required by § 944.15 of Priorities Regulation 1. This 30-day amount is a ceiling as far as advance stockpiling is concerned, and may not be considered as a “bonus” to be added to the amount Of any material which a producer expects to have available for making his civilian product. Changes in this 30-day amount may be indicated for a particular material by a note' in Table 1.

(5) Minimum sale quantities. Mini­mum sale quantities and production runs may be accepted to the extent permitted by Interpretation 2 to this Regulation. However, where Column 3 of Table 1 shows a specific amount of a particular material, that is considered to be the minimum sale quantity of it. Thus, if a person would be permitted under para­graph (c) to accept less than the amount shown, he may accept delivery of the full amount. In any event, after receiv­ing a minimum sale quantity of any ma­terial, a person may not accept delivery of any additional quantities until his inventory of it is within applicable limits.

(6) Small inventory exemption for particular materials. I f a note in Table 1 or 2 shows a specific amount of a par­ticular material as a small inventory exemption, a person may accept delivery of any quantities of it as long as his total inventory of it after acceptance is no more than the specified amount.

(h) Receipts permitted after adjust­ment of orders. Where a person has promptly adjusted his outstanding or­ders with his supplier as required by paragraph (e) and. the supplier is not otherwise prohibited from producing or delivering any material involved, delivery of it may be made and accepted and the inventory restrictions of paragraph (c) exceeded to the following extent only:

(1) Delivery may be made and ac­cepted if the supplier has shipped the material or loaded it for shipment before the receipt of the instruction to adjust; or

(2) Delivery may be made and ac­cepted of any special item which the sup­plier actually has in stock or in pro­duction or special components or special materials which he has acquired for the purpose of filling that contract. A spe­cial item, as used above, means one that the supplier does not usually make, stock, or sell, and which cannot readily be dis­posed of to others; or

(3) Even if the material is not a spe­cial item, delivery may be made by and accepted from a producer if it has al­

ready been produced or is in production before receipt of the instruction to ad- just, and it cannot be used to fill other * orders on the producer’s books.

Note: For special rules on continuing re­ceipts of special items after contract cut backs, see Direction 3 to this regulation; and as to transfers of idle materials after can­cellations or cut backs, see Direction 1. For effect of reduction in consumption rate on permitted inventories, see Interpretation 5.

Miscellaneous Provisions(1) Previous inventory authorizations.

Any specific authorizations, exceptions, or grants of appeals issued under § 944.14 of Priorities Regulation 1 or CMP Regu-. lation 2 remain in effect according to their terms unless individually modified or revoked.

(j) Separate inventories. (1) In figur­ing his inventory, a person must include all material in his possession and all ma­terial held for his account by another person, but not material held by him for the account of another person.

(2) In the case of a person who on August 28,1945, has more than one oper­ating unit and keeps separate inventory. records for them, this regulation applies to each such operating unit or division independently. A person may not make any further separation or consolidation of such operating units without special written approval of the Civilian Produc­tion Administration, unless it is purely incidental to a separation or consolida­tion which is made primarily for other than inventory purposes.

(k) Redistribution of excess inven­tories. Excess inventories of materials and products, including inventories of materials which are in such form as to be unusable by the holder, are subject to redistribution to other persons by vol­untary action pursuant to Priorities Reg­ulation 13, or if necessary for national defense, through requisitioning by the Civilian Production Administration.

(l) Violations, fyay person who wil­fully violates any provision of this regu* lation, or who, in connection with this regulation, wilfully conceals a material fact, or furnishes false information to any department or agency of the United States is guilty of a crime, and upon con­viction may be punished by fine or im­prisonment. In addition, any such per­son may be prohibited from making or obtaining further deliveries of, or from processing or using, material under pri­ority control and may be deprived of pri­orities assistance.

(m) Revisions of tables. Tables 1, 2 and 3, attached to this regulation will be revised from time to time. As materials and products become in more ample sup­ply, it is expected that they will be listed

on Table 3. In special cases, particular materials or products may also be re­moved from Table 3 or added to Table 1. It is, therefore, important to be familiar with the latest revision of the tables.

(n) Appeals, letters and questions. Any appeal or other question regarding any provision of this regulation should be sent by letter in duplicate to the In­ventory Control Division, Civilian Pro­duction Administration, Washington 25,D. C., Ref.; PR 32, unless Table 1 or 2 attached to this regulation indicates otherwise with respect to particular materials or classes of persons.

Table 1—Materials and Products Subject to Specific Inventory Provisions

Explanation. Materials or products listed in Column 1 are subject to the specific in­ventory provisions shown, as explained in paragraph (c) (2) of the regulation, except to the extent that different rules may apply as to certain classes of persons under Table 2.

Column 2 shows either the CPA order or regulation which controls inventories of the material, or if no order is specified, there is shown a period of time representing the maximum inventory permitted as explained in paragraph (c) (2 ). An asterisk ( * ) in­dicates that the practicable minimum work­ing inventory limit of paragraph (c) (1) also applies, that is, if it would be less than the specific limit indicated.

If Column 2 shows a specific period of time (e. g., 30 days, 60 days, etc.) for a particular Material or product, this restriction applies only to "users” of that material or product, i. e., persons, including Government operated consuming establishments, who use the ma­terial or product for production, operating supplies, maintenance and repair, or for con­struction whether for own account or for the account of another. In addition, the-restric­tion applies only within the 48 States and the District of Columbia. In the case of persons who are not “users”, such as persons buying for resale, paragraph {c ) (1) applies instead of Column 2.

A figure in Column 3 shows the minimum sale quantity, that is, the amount of the particular material which a person may re­ceive under the conditions stated in para­graph (g ) (5 ), even if it is more than allowed under Column 2. If no figure is shown, the rule in Interpretation 2 must be followed.

Column 4 tells the Division or Office in the Civilian Production Administration to which should be sent any appeals or questions re­garding the limitations described. However, if the applicable order says appeals are to be filed somewhere else, such as the nearest CPA field office, that provision controls.. Column 5 (Remarks) gives explanations, exemptions or other special rules applicable to the particular material or limitation.

I nterpretation 1

INVENTORIES IN SEASONAL INDUSTRIES

Paragraph (c) (1) of Priorities Regulation 32 prohibits any person from accepting a de­livery which will give him “more than a practicable minimum working inventory rea­sonably necessary to meet his own deliveries on the basis of his current or scheduled meth­od and rate of operation”. This does not pre­vent a person engaged in a seasonal industry who normally stocks up inventory in advance of the season from accepting delivery of his requirements of the inventory in question, provided (a ) that he is not guilty of hoard­ing, and (b ) that the deliveries accepted are no greater and no further in advance than those which he would normally accept in the ordinary course of his business to meet rea­sonably anticipated requirements. (Issued Aug. 28, 1945.)

I nterpretation 2M IN IM U M SALE QUANTITIES AND PRODUCTION

RUNS

(a ) Applicable provisions of the regula­tions. Priorities Regulation 32 forbids the making or acceptance of a delivery which will give the customer more than the “prac­ticable minimum working inventory reason­ably necessary” for him to make his own deliveries. A similar provision in paragraph(c ) (2) of Priorities Regulation No. 3 says that a customer who is applying a rating for which no specific quantities have been au­thorized may use it only to get the “mini­mum amount needed.”

(b ) Factors to be considered in deter­mining how much can be ordered and de­livered. In determining a customer’s mini­mum inventory “reasonably necessary” under Priorities Regulation 82 or his “minimum amount needed” under Priorities Regulation No. 3, it is proper in some cases to consider not only the immediate needs of the custom­er’s plant but also whether the amount which he orders will be a minimum produc­tion run for his supplier. The customer may order and receive (and the supplier may de­liver) the customer’s requirements for a longer period in advance than he actually needs at the time of delivery if, but only if, it is not practicable for him to get the item from any supplier in the smaller quantities which he presently needs. The supplier may reject his customer’s order if it is less than the minimum which he regularly sells or less

879than his minimum production run of a product which is mass produced under the conditions explained in Interpretation 3 of Priorities Regulation 1.

(c) Relief in exceptional cases. I f the conditions stated in paragraph (b ) above cannot be satisfied but the customer wants to order or accept delivery of more than his actual needs at the time of delivery, he should apply to the Civilian Production Ad­ministration for permission, stating the facts and why it is not practicable to satisfy the condition of paragraph ( b ) .

(d ) Special provisions for certain mate­rials. Where a specific minimum sale quan­tity is shown in Column 3 of Table 1 of Pri­orities Regulation 32 with respect to any material or product, that quantity controls instead of the rule in this interpretation.

(e ) Specific limits on ratings may not be exceeded. This interpretation does not apply to the use of a rating where a specific quan­tity is stated in the instrument assigning the rating. If a person is assigned a rating for a specific amount of material, he may not use it to get more. If he finds that he can only get the material in larger quantities, he should apply for a modification of the rating.

( f ) No effect on contractual rights. The times and amounts in which deliveries are to be made are to be determined by agree­ment between the supplier and the customer. Nothing in this interpretation relieves a sup­plier from fulfilling a contract to make de­liveries at specified times in specified amounts. For example, if a customer has agreed to buy and a supplier has agreed to furnish 100 units a month for six months, this interpretation does not obligate the buyer to accept 600 units delivered during the first month, although it permits him to do so under the conditions described in paragraph (b ) . (Issued Oct. 1,1945.)

I nterpretation 3

MAKING OR DELIVERING MATERIAL EARLIER THAN REQUIRED BY CUSTOMERS

(a ) Paragraph (b ) of Priorities Regula­tion 32 prohibits a person from knowingly making a delivery which will give his cus­tomer more than the latter is permitted to receive under the regulation. Paragraph (f ) of that regulation prohibits a person from processing or fabricating material if his in­ventory of the material in its processed or fabricated form will be more than a prac­ticable minimum working inventory. These two restrictions should be borne in mind by any supplier who wants to make or deliver any material to his customer earlier or in greater quantities than required by the cus­tomer.

(b ) For example: A supplier has accepted his customer’s order of a product to be de­livered at the rate of 100 a month for six months. The supplier would like to ship 200 a month for three months, or perhaps the entire 600 in the first month. Since the cus­tomer’s requirements of 100 a month are presumably all he could accept within the inventory limitations of paragraph (c) of the regulation, the requirement that the sup­plier may not knowingly ship more than this would prevent him from delivering earlier than required by his customer, unless he received notice from his customer that the receipt of the larger amount would not cause him to have an excess inventory.

(c ) Thus, before delivering a material or product substantially earlier or in greater quantities than is called for by his custom­er’s order, a supplier is required to satisfy ’himself that the receipt by the customer of the changed quantities will be within the permissible inventory limitations applicable to the customer. The supplier may rely on any statement or notice to this effect from

No. 17------ 2

880 FEDERAL REGISTER, T h u rs d a y , J a n u a ry 24, 1946

his customer, unless he knows or has reason to know that it is false.

(d ) Similarly, assuming his customer would not be permitted to receive the larger quan­tities, the supplier should take this into ac­count in his plans for processing the material or product so that he himself will not have an inventory greater than permitted by para­graph (f ) of the regulation.

(e) This interpretation, of course, does not change the rule on delivery or acceptance of minimum sale quantities or production runs to the extent described in Interpretation 2 to this regulation, nor does it prevent earlier delivery of iron products, steel, copper and

.copper base alloys under the, conditions de­scribed in paragraph (c) (3) of Priorities Regulation 32. Also, if any CPA order or regulation permits increased deliveries to the extent necessary to avoid shipping partly filled containers (such as paragraph (y) (4) of Order M-300), the rule in this interpreta­tion does not prevent such deliveries. (Is­sued Oct. 1, 1945.)

I nterpretation 4

INVENTORY MATERIAL

(a ) Paragraph (c) of Priorities Regulation 32 prohibits a person from accepting delivery of material if his inventory of it is, or will be, greater than the maximum prescribed. For the purpose of this regulation, material is considered to be inventory until it is actually put into process or is actually installed or assembled. Putting into process does not include minor initial operations, such as painting, and does not include any shearing, cutting, trimming or other operation unless such initial operations are part of a contin­uous fabricating or assembling operation. Nor does it include operations such as in­spection, testing and ageing nor segregation or earmarking for a specific job or operation.

(b ) For example, if a manufacturer who uses wire or rod cuts a sufficient quantity of it to length at one time to maintain his op­erations for a considerable period of tinreT the cut pieces remain as inventory until proc­essed into another form or until assembled or installed.

(c) If a manufacturer purchases and stores steel castings in the form purchased, the steel castings are not put into process when the castings are painted and stored. Consequent­ly, the inventory of castings includes those painted and stored.

(d ) I f a manufacturer shears steel sheet and stocks in sheared form, such stock is still part of his inventory, if the material does not continue in production. (Issued Aug. 28, 1945)

I nterpretation 5

EFFECT OF REDUCTION IN CONSUMPTION RATE ON PERMITTED INVENTORIES

(a) Paragraph (c) of Priorities Regulation 32 prohibits the acceptance of delivery of material if a person’s inventory of it is, or will be, more than the amount permitted by the regulation. If material is acquired within these restrictions, the regulation does not prohibit the mere possession of an in­ventory if a change in circumstances makes it greater than the amount permitted. For instance, if based upon current rate of pro­duction a manufacturer’s permitted inven­tory of one item of steel is 100 tons and he has in inventory 60 tons, he may receive a further delivery of 40 tons. If after re­ceiving the delivery of 40 tons his rate of consumption, because of contract cancella­tion or the like, is reduced drastically, the mere fact that he has an inventory of 100 tons, although his permitted inventory may be only 10 tons, is not a violation of the reg­ulation. He may not, of course, accept any further deliveries of that item of steel until

his inventory has been reduced below 10 tons (except as provided in paragraph (h ) of Pri­orities Regulation 32 and Direction 3 to that regulation, relating to material already shipped, special items, etc.)

(b ) Similarly, the regulation does not af­fect the liability of a customer for material in inventory when the customer cancels his contract. Such liability is controlled by the provisions of the contract between the cus­tomer and his supplier and by contract law. (Issued Aug. 28, 1945)

[Priorities Reg. 32, Direction 7, as Amended Jan.22,1946]

NEWSPRINT INVENTORIES

The following amended direction is issued pursuant to PR 32:

(a ) Purpose. In view of the continued shortage of newsprint, this direction restricts deliveries of newsprint to all users based upon their inventory. It tells a user how many days’ inventory he may have based on his average daily consumption during the last six months of 1945. It also requires all users of newsprint to report monthly on the amount of newsprint in inventory.

(b ) Definitions.— (1) Newsprint. “News­print” means the grades of paper commonly known as “standard newsprint” and “super­standard newsprint”.

(2) Inventory. “Inventory” means all the newsprint which is owned by a user or is available for his use. It includes»the news­print which he has on hand, in storage, and in transit and paper held for his use by a paper merchant; warehouseman or other person regardless of its physical location. However, it does not include newsprint shipped by water and held in warehouse by a paper manufacturer or merchant as part of the inventory of the manufacturer or mer­chant; such paper does not become part of a user’s inventory until it is delivered to him.

(c) Inventory ceiling. No user may ac­cept delivery of newsprint in any calen­dar month if he has reason to believe his inventory will by virtue of such acceptance become on the last day of the month greater than: (1) 30 days’ supply for users in the states named in List A, (2) 50 days’ supply for users' in the states named in List B, or (3) 60 tons for users who would be limited to a smaller amount by subdivision (1) or (2) above.

Wisconsin

LIST B

Alabama NevadaArizona New MexicoArkansas North CarolinaCalifornia OklahomaColorado OregonFlorida South CarolinaGeorgia TennesseeIdaho TexasLouisiana UtahMontana WashingtonMississippi Wyoming

(d) Exclusions from inventory. In com­puting the maximum tonnage which a user may have in his inventory on the last day of any month in accordance with para­graph (c ), he shall exclude in January and February 1946, any less-than-quota savings under his consumption quota of Order L-240 which he had in inventory on December 31, 1945. He shall also exclude newsprint which he has received by Great Lakes or coastal waterborne shipments; provided on May 1 of any calendar year he shall have on hand or available for use no more than the amount of newsprint permitted him by the applicable limitations of paragraph (c) above.

(e ) Computation of rate of consumption.The number of days’ supply for a newspaper shall be computed at the average daily rate of allowable consumption under Order L-240 for the last six months of 1945. The number of days’ supply for a user other than a news­paper shall be computed at the average daily rate of allowable consumption under Sched- ule I of Order L-240 for the 4th quarter of 1945. '

(f ) Reports. On and after January 1, 1946 all users of more than 25 tons of newsprint in any calendar quarter shall file with the Civilian Production Admin­istration a monthly statement of his inven­tory of newsprint on Form WPB 4292 within three days after the close of each month,, beginning with January 1946.

This reporting requirement has been ap­proved by the Bureau of'the Budget in ac­cordance with' the Federal Reports Act of 1942.

(g ) Persons not established as users of newsprint. Any person who is not, but wishes to become, a regular user of newsprint must apply by letter to the Civilian Produc­tion Administration for permission to get an initial inventory of newsprint in excess of 60 tons. This letter should state how much newsprint he needs to- start operating, the purpose for which the newsprint is to be used and any other information to help the Civilian Production Administration decide whether he intends to become a regular user of newsprint.

Appeals. Any appeal from this direction should be filed by letter, in triplicate, to the Civilian Production Administration, Printing and Publishing Branch, Washington 25, D. C. Ref: PR 32, Direction 7.

Communications. All communications concerning this direction shall, unless other­wise directed, be addressed to the Civilian Production Administration, Printing and Publishing Branch, Washington 25, D. C. Ref: PR 32, Direction 7.

(h ) Applicability of Priorities Regulation 32. All provisions of Priorities Regulation 32 apply to newsprint except to the extent, this direction gives different rules.

LAUNDRY AND DRY CLEANING SERVICES

Supplementary Service Regulation No. 44 is redesignated Revised Supplemen­tary Service Regulation No. 44 and is revised and amended to read as follows:

A statement of the considerations in­volved in the issuance of this Revised Supplementary Service Regulation No. 44 has been filed with the Division of the Federal Register. For the reasons set forth in that statement and under the authority vested in the Price Adminis­trator by the Emergency Price Control Act of 1942, as amended, the Stabiliza­tion Act of 1942, as amended, and Execu­tive Orders Nos. 9250, 9328, 9599, and 9651, Revised Supplementary Service Regulation No. 44 is hereby issued. The specifications and standards set forth in this regulation are those which prior to the issuance of the regulation, were in general use by the trade.

S ection 1. Services covered— (a) In General. This regulation applies to all services generally supplied by laundry or dry cleaning establishments including, but not limited to, the following services: cleaning, pressing, washing, dyeing, mothproofing, waterproofing, storing, al­terations, rug cleaning or dyeing, diaper supply, and linen supply services. The provisions of Revised Maximum Price Regulation 165 as applicable to laundry or dry cleaning services are modified to the extent provided by this supplemen­tary service regulation.

(b) Applicability of Revised Maximum Price Regulation 165. Except as pro­vided to the contrary, all other provisions of RMPR 165 and any applicable sup­plementary service regulation shall ap-

889FEDERAL REGISTER, T h u rs d a y , J a n u a ry 24, 1946

ply to the services subject to this regula­tion.

S ec. 2. Maximum prices, (a) You must apply to the appropriate District Office of OE*A for establishment of a maximum price for any “new laundry or dry cleaning service” first supplied by you after December 31,1944.

(b) The maximum price for a service to be established under this regulation shall be a price in line with the level of maximum prices existing in your trading area for the same or fairly equivalent service, or if the same or fairly equiva­lent service is not offered in your trading area, then in a closely comparable trad­ing area.

(c) An application for a price on a proposed new service must be denied if the distinguishing feature of a new serv­ice is the addition of a new feature to an old service, or better performance of that service, or an improvement or voluntary change in the method of processing that service which is insubstantial and which has not been customarily recognized as differentiating the service in terms of price.

(d) You may not sell the service for which a maximum price is requested hereunder until that price has been ap­proved by OPA, but the proposed price shall be considered approved twenty days after the application is received by the appropriate OPA office (or all additional requested information has been received) unless, within that time, OPA notifies you that your proposed price has been dis­approved. In the event of automatic approval by lapse of the 20 day period, the OPA may at any time thereafter review, disapprove, or revise your prices, and if your prices are not established in accordance with the provisions of this section, OPA may fix new maximum prices for you in conformity with such provisions.

S ec. 3. Deposits and insurance— (a) Deposits. Unless authorized by OPA, you may not require a deposit for any reason if you did not do so in March 1942, nor may you now increase any such deposit.

(b) Insurance. Unless authorized by OPA, you may not make an extra charge for insurance, if you did not do so in March 1942, nor may you now increase any such insurance charge made during that month.

S ec. 4. Moving of business. I f you move your laundry or dry cleaning estab­lishment out of your trading area or if you acquire the business or equipment of another supplier and move it out of the trading area, you must apply to OPA for establishment of your maximum prices under section 2. I f you move the business in the same trading area, you must keep the same maximum prices.

S ec . 5. Branch outlets.— (a) New out­lets. I f you own one or more selling units and you open a new unit after De­cember 31, 1944, you must apply to OPA for establishment of your maximum prices for that unit under section 2, ex­cept if you close a selling unit and open another one in the same trading area, your maximum" prices for the new unit shall be thé same as those of the unit you closed.

(b) Uniform pricing. I f you own or operate retail laundry or dry cleaning outlets and desire to establish the prac­tice of selling services at uniform prices in all of your establishments located in a community or trading area, you may apply to the Administrator of the Office of Price Administration, Washington, D. C., for uniform pricing authorization.

(c) Independent outlets. I f you op­erate an “ independent retail distribution outlet” and are supplied at a discount from retail list prices by a plant which also has established retail maximum

-prices, you may elect to take the maxi­mum retail prices of your supplier for such services by filing a notification of such election with your Price Control Board showing your name and address, the name and address of your supplier and the supplier’s retail list of maximum prices which you have elected to take. In the event you make the election, a change in your supplier or his maximum prices will affect your maximum prices accordingly.

(d) Outlets supplied by wholesalers. Where it appears that increased service cost to retail outlets, resulting from ad­justment of the maximum prices of a plant supplying services at wholesale prices not based on a discount from retail list prices, cannot be absorbed by such outlets supplied without substantial fi­nancial hardship, OPA may in the order granting adjustments to the supplier also authorize adjustment of the maximum prices of such outlets to make allowance in whole or in part for the increased service cost.

S ec. 6. Failure to apply, file or defec­tive filing, (a) I f you failed to file an application for a maximum price for a new service as required by this regula­tion, OPA may fix new maximum prices for you in conformity with the provisions of section 2 of this regulation, and such prices may be made retroactive to the time of the first sale of such service. I f you failed to keep the records or file a complete and correctly determined statement of prices as required by RMPR 165 or if the prices which you filed were incorrectly determined, re­gardless of when you commenced offer­ing any services, the OPA may fix new maximum prices for you in conformity with the provisions of section 2 of this regulation.

(b) An order issued under this section may also require you to give sales slips or receipts, to keep copies thereof in your files, and to prepare and keep such rec­ords as may be specified in the order. Those requirements will not, however, re­lieve you of your obligation to comply with the requirements of section 14 of RMPR 165 or of the various penalties for failure to do so.

S ec. 7. Definitions, (a) “New serv­ice” means a service you offer for the first time after December 31, 1944; it also means a service first offered to a new pur­chaser class after December 31,1944.

(b) “Your.district office of OPA” means the district office of the Office of Price Administration for the district where your place of business is located and from which your sales are made.

(c) “Your Price Control Board” means the Price Control Board of the OPA for the area where your place of business is located and from which your sales are made.

(d) “ Independent retail distribution outlet” means a place of business which supplies laundry or dry cleaning services, is not owned by another laundry or dry cleaner, is not a unit of two or more laundry or dry cleaning outlets under joint ownership, and which performs no processing of laundry or dry cleaning.

(e) “Trading area” has the meaning ordinarily given it by the laundry and dry cleaning trade for the nature of serv­ices involved and the area to be served.

(f ) “Fairly equivalent service” means a service accomplishing the same or equiv­alent utility supplied by the same type of supplier (such as chain store, independ­ent retailer, power laundry, linen supply, diaper supply, commercial laundry, etc.).

Sec . 8. Delegation of authority. Any Regional Administrator of the Office of Price Administration and any District Director who has been authorized to act by the Regional Administrator having jurisdiction over his district, may estab­lish, approve, disapprove or correct maxi­mum prices established under the pro­visions of this regulation, except as other­wise provided.

Sec. 9. Geographical applicability. The provisions of this Revised Supple­mentary Service Regulation No. 44 shall be applicable to the 48 States of the United States and the District of Colum­bia.

This Revised Supplementary Service Regulation shall become effective Janu­ary 28, 1946.

N o te : For specific rules regarding petitions for rehearing in connection with applications under Title in, see § 1.387.

Repealed §§ 1.381 Partial grants and 1.382 Designation for hearing of the Commission’s rules and regulations and adopted the following new sections to be substituted therefor:

§ 1.381 Grants without a hearing. Where an application for radio facilities is proper upon its face, and where it ap­pears from an examination of the appli­cation and supporting data that: (1) The applicant is legally, technically and fi­nancially qualified: (2) a grant of the application would not involve modifica­

tion, revocation, or non-renewal of any existing license or outstanding construc­tion permit; (3) a grant of the applica­tion would not cause electrical interfer­ence to an existing station or station for which a construction permit is out­standing within its normally protected contour as prescribed by the applicable rules and regulations; (4) a grant of the application would not preclude the grant of any mutually exclusive application; and (5) a grant of the application would be in the public interest, the Commission will grant the application without a hearing.

§1.382 Partial grants. Where the Commission without a hearing grants any application in part, or with any privi­leges, terms, or conditions other than those requested, the action of the Com­mission shall be considered as a grant of such application unless the applicant shall, within 20 days from the date on which public announcement of such grant is made, or from its effective date if a later date is specified, file with the Commission a written request for a hear­ing with respect to the part, or with re­spect to the privileges, terms, or condi­tions, not granted. Upon receipt of such request, the Commission will vacate its original action upon the application and set the application for hearing in the same manner as other applications are set for hearing.

§ 1.383 Designation for hearing. Ap­plications will be designated for hearing in the following cases:

(a) Where it does not appear from an examination of the application that the applicant is legally, technically or finan­cially qualified; or

(b) Where a grant of the application would require the modification, revoca­tion, or non-renewal of license of an existing station or of any outstanding construction permit; or

(c) Where a grant of the application would cause electrical interference to an existing station or station for which a construction permit is outstanding within its normally protected contour as prescribed by the applicable rules and regulations; or

(d) Where it does not appear from an examination of the application that a grant of the application will be in the public interest.

(e) Where a grant of the application would preclude the grant of an applica­tion or applications mutually exclusive with it. However, the Commission may, if publip interest will be served thereby, make a conditional grant of one of the applications and designate all of the mu­tually exclusive applications for hear­ing. Such conditional grant will be made" upon the express condition that such grant is subject to being withdrawn if at the hearing it is shown that public interest will be better served by a grant of one of the other applications. Such conditional grants will be issued only where it appears:

(1) That some or all of the applica­tions were not filed in good faith but were filed for the purpose of delaying or hindering the grant of another ap­plication; or

FEDERAL REGISTER, T h u rs d a y , J a n u a ry 24, 194Ò 891(2) That public interest requires the

prompt establishment of radio service in a particular community or area; or

(3) That a grant of one or more ap­plications would be in the public inter­est and that a delay in making a grant to any applicant until after the conclu­sion of a hearing on all applications might jeopardize the rights of the United States under the provisions of interna­tional agreem ents the use of the fre­quency in question; or

(4) That a grant of 5ne application would be in the public interest and that it appears from an examination of the remaining applications that they cannot be granted because they are in violation of provisions of the Communications Act, or of other statutes, or of the Com­mission’s rules and regulations. ,

§ 1.384 Procedure when case is desig­nated for hearing, (a) When an appli­cation Iras been designated for hearing, the Secretary of the Commission will mail a written notice to the applicant set­ting forth the action of the Commission designating the application for hearing, together with such statement of the Commission’s reasons therefor as shall be appropriate to the nature of the ap­plication.

(b)' The Commission will on its own motion name as parties to the hearing:

(1) Any existing licensee or holder of an outstanding construction permit who, if the application were granted, would suffer electrical interference within his normally protected contour as prescribed by the Commission’s rules and regu­lations.

(2) Any existing licensee or holder of an outstanding construction permit whose license or construction permit would have to be modified or revoked, or whose application for renewal of license would have to be denied, if the applica­tion in question were granted.

The notice shall state the terms and con­ditions of the proposed assignment or transfer, the name of the proposed as­signee or transferee, and, further, that any other person desiring to purchase the facilities upon the same terms and con­ditions may file an application to this effect with the Federal Communications Commission within 60 days from the date of the first publication of the notice, which date shall be expressly set forth therein. Upon receipt of the application, the Commission itself will issue a similar public notice stating the terms and con­ditions of the proposed sale and stating that others may file competing applica­tions for the same facilities upon the same terms and conditions.

(b) No action on any such application will be taken by the Commission for a period of 60 days from the date of filing, during which time any person desiring to purchase the facilities upon the same terms and conditions may file a compet­ing application. In the case of such com­peting application, it shall be necessary for the applicant to execute only so much of the application form as relates to the proposed assignee or transferee—F. C. C. Form No. 314, Part II, and Form No. 315, Part III.

(c) I f no competing application is filed during this 60-day period, the Commis­sion will consider the original applica­tion upon its merits and will grant it if it appears from an examination of the application and supporting data public

interest will be served thereby; other­wise it will be designated for hearing. If, during such 60-day period, tfny other application is filed, all such applications will then be considered simultaneously upon their merits, and if, upon such con­sideration, it appears that the proposed assignee or transferee selected by the li­censee is the best qualified and that the transfer would otherwise be in the pub­lic interest, the Commission will grant the original application without a hear­ing. I f the Commission is unable to make such a determination upon consid­eration of the several applications,,the original application and all competing applications will be designated for hear­ing, to be heard in a consolidated pro­ceeding, to determine among other things which of the applicants is best qualified to operate the station in the public interest.

(d) If, at the conclusion of such hear­ing, the Commission is of the opinion that the proposed assignee or transferee selected by the licensee is the best quali­fied and that the transfer is otherwise in the public interest, an order will be en­tered granting the original application. However, if the Commission is of the opinion that one of the other applicants is the best qualified and that a transfer is otherwise in the public interest, an order will be entered denying the original application and stating that the Commis­sion’s consent to an assignment of the license or construction permit or to the transfer of control of the corporate li­censee or permittee and such competing applicant enter into and file with the Commission within 30 days from the date of such order a contract for the assign­ment of the license or construction per­mit, or the transfer of control of the licensee or permittee, to such competing applicant upon the same terms and con­ditions as stated in the original applica­tion or upon such other terms and con­ditions as the parties may agree upon and which new terms and conditions the Commission shall find to be in the pub­lic interest.

(e) The provisions of this section shall not apply to the following cases: (1) Where there is a reorganization of a cor­poration which holds a license or con­struction permit, involving no change in beneficial ownership; (2) where there is an assignment from a decedent to his executor or administrator or from the executor or administrator to his duly appointed successor. This section, how­ever, shall apply to an assignment or transfer from an executor or administra­tor to heirs, trustees, or third persons;(3) where there is an assignment from an individual or individuals to a corpo­ration owned and controlled by such in­dividual or individuals without any change in their respective interests or from a corporation to the individual stockholders controlling such corpora­tion when there is no change in their re­spective interests; or (4) any other assignment or transfer that does not in­volve any change in the actual or bene­ficial ownership of the licensee.

In the Commission’s decision of Sep­tember 6, 1945, granting the application for transfer of control of the Crosley Corporation (Docket No. 6767), it was announced that public hearings would be held to consider proposed new rules and regulations for the handling of assign­ment and transfer applications including provision for public notice by the appli­cant and the Commission of the filing of such applications and pertinent details in cases where a controlling interest* is involved. Thereafter on October 3, 1945, the Commission also gave public notice (10 F.R. 12926) that pending the issuance of such proposed new rules, hearing thereon, and final adoption, such appli­cations would be deferred unless appli­cants desired to follow the procedure proposed in the WLW decision, and sup­plement their applications so as to come within, the framework of the announced procedure including the provision for public notices. Pursuant thereto the Commission was advised that on Janu­ary 1, 1946, notice would be inserted in the Mobile Press Register, a newspaper of general circulation at Mobile, Ala­bama, concerning the proposed transfer of the license and sale of the station and its facilities as set out in the appli­cation.

ADJUSTMENT OF MAXIMUM PRICES

For the reasons set forth in an opin­ion issued simultaneously herewith and filed with the Division of the Federal Register, and pursuant to sections 13 and 14 of Supplementary Order No. 119, it is ordered:

(a) Manufacturer’s Maximum Prices. R. Wallace and Sons, Wallingford, Con­necticut, may increase by no more than 22 percent its maximum prices in effect

during October 1941 to each class of pur­chaser for silver plated flatware of its manufacture. The manufacturer may not add to the amount of increase per­mitted by this paragraph any adjustment under Revised Order No. 226 under Max­imum Price Regulation No. 188 since the increase authorized by this paragraph includes the amount of the adjustment permitted by that order.

(b) Ceiling prices of purchasers for re­sale. A purchaser for resale shall deter­mine his maximum price as follows:

(1) I f during March 1942 he delivered or offered for delivery an article of silver plated flatware which meets the defini­tion of “most comparable article” con­tained in § 1499.3 (a ) of the General Maximum Price Regulation, except that it need not be currently offered for sale, and on which he has established an ad­justed maximum price under either Or­der No. 226 or Revised Order No. 226 un­der Maximum Price Regulation No. 188 (adjustment on certain articles contain­ing silver) he shall determine his maxi­mum price on an article covered by this order according to the following steps:

Step 1: He shall determine the percentage of markup he has on that comparable article between his actual invoice cost (including the silver adjustment permitted by Order 226 or Revised Order 226)( and his maximum price as adjusted under Revised Order No. ¿26.

Step 2: He shall apply the markup which he finds in Step 1 above to his actual invoice cost of the article covered by this order. The result is his ceiling price for his sales of that article to the same class of purchaser as that to which the maximum price of the comparable article applied.

(2) I f a purchaser for resale cannot determine his ceiling price under the above method, he shall apply to the Office of Price Administration for the establish­ment of his ceiling price under § 1499.3(c) of the General Maximum Price Reg­ulation. Ceiling prices established under that section will reflect the supplier’s prices adjusted in accordance with this Order.

(c) Terms of sale. Ceiling prices ad­justed by this order are subject to each seller’s customary terms, discounts, al­lowances and other price differentials on sales to each class of purchaser in effect during March 1942, or established under any applicable OPA regulation.

(d) Notification. At the time of, or“ prior to, the first invoice to a purchaser for resale showing a ceiling price ad­justed in accordance with the terms of this order, the seller shall notify each purchaser in writing of the method of determining adjusted ceiling prices for sales of the articles covered by this order. This notice may be given in any conven­ient form.

(e) Ttns order may be revoked or amended by the Price Administrator at any time.

<f) Effective date. This order shall become effective on the 22d day of Jan­uary, 1946.

Pursuant to the authority vested in the Regional Administrator of Regiorr V by § 1340.260 of Revised Maximum Price Regulation No. 122 and for the reasons stated in the opinion issued simultane­ously herewith, it is ordered:

(a) What this order does. This order establishes maximum prices for sales of specified solid fuels within the limits of Crawford County, Kansas. The prices set forth in this order are the highest prices that any dealer may charge when he sells or delivers any of such fuels at or to a point within the area covered hereby.

(1) Solid fuels not covered by this order. There are a few kinds and sizes of solid fuels covered by Revised Maximum Price Regulation No. 122 sold and deliv-

'ered in the area covered by this order which are not included in and for which prices are not established by this order. The maximum prices of such solid fuels when sold by any person "covered by this order shall continue to be the maximum prices for such fuels established by Re­vised Maximum Price Regulation No. 122, as amended. Sueh sales shall in all re­spects be governed by the provisions of Revised Maximum Price Regulation No. 122, as amended.

(b) What this order prohibits. Re­gardless of any obligation, no person shall:

(1) Sell, or in the course of trade or business buy, solid fuels at prices higher than the maximum prices set by this Order No. G-9; but less than the maxi-

* mum prices may at any time be charged, paid or offered;

(2) Obtain higher than maximum prices by:

(i> Charging for a service unless such service is expressly requested by the buyer and unless specifically authorized to do so by this Order;

(ii) Charging a price higher than the schedule price for a service;

(iii) Using any tying agreement or re­quiring that the buyer purchase anything in addition to the fuel requested by ham; or

(iv> Using any other device by which a higher than maximum price is obtained directly or indirectly.

(c) Price schedule. (1) Below and a part of this section is the maximum price schedule which sets forth maximum prices for sales by direct delivery of speci­fied sizes, kinds and quantities of solid fuels.

(2) Thè prices set forth in the fore­going schedule are on a per ton basis (2,000 pounds to the t8n). No dealer may add to the, schedule prices any ad­ditional charge for the extension of credit

(3) Prices set forth in the foregoing schedule are for untreated coal. The dealer may charge an amount not to exceed 10$ per ton in addition to the Schedule prices when the coal is thor­oughly and adequately treated, chem­ically or with oil, to allay dust or prevent freezing (See section ( j ) ) .

(4) A deduction from the prices set forth in the foregoing schedule of not less than 75$ per ton must be made on yard sales of solid fuels covered by this order in quantities of one or more tons. “Yard sales” , for the purposes of this order, means sales in which the buyer takes delivery at the dealer’s yard.

(5) On delivered sales involving quan­tities of less than one ton, the dealer may add an amount not to exceed 35$ to the fractional per net ton price set out in the foregoing schedule for each such delivery.

(d) Service charges. (1) Below and as a part of this section (d) is a schedule that sets forth maximum prices which a dealer may charge for special services rendered in connection with all sales under preceding section (c). These charges may be made only if the buyer

935FEDERAL REGISTER, T h u rs d a y , J a n u a ry 24, 1946

requests such services of the dealer and only when the dealer renders the services.

(1) An amount not to exceed 25tf per ton may be charged for the service of “pull back” or “ trimming” . This is the service of arranging the fuel in the buyer’s bin and is necessary only when the bin is being filled to, or near to, ca­pacity. This service charge may be ap­plied only to the tonnage actually moved in the trimming process and not to the entire amount put into the consumer’s bin.

(e) Transportation tax; Kansas State sales tax. (1) The transportation tax. Only the transportation tax imposed by section 020 of the Revenue Act of 1942 may be collected in addition to the max­imum prices set out by this order pro­vided the dealer states it separately from the price of the fuel and lists it separately on any sales slip or receipt given to the buyer. This tax need not be stated separately on sales to the United States or any agency thereof, the State Governments or any political sub­division thereof (See § 1340.265 (b) of Revised Maximum Price Regulation No. 122). No part of this tax may be col­lected in addition to maximum prices on sales of ton or less quantities.

(2) The Kansas State sales tax. The seller may add to the prices listed in the, schedule in section (c) the sales tax re­quired to be collected by the laws of the State of Kansas. This, tax shall be separately stated in the dealer’s invoice, sales slip or receipt.

( f ) Addition of increase in supplier’s price prohibited.
