Several drastic changes in
OPS regulations will be put
into effect in Alaska during the
month of September, according
to the bulletin published bv
OPS.
Although Alaskans can look
for no reduction in prices, the
changes will enable OPS to keep
closer check on the prevailing
prices and instire against un
warranted increases.
Latest Congressional action
prohibits rolling back prices,
but future increases on nearly
all commodities at all levels will
be carefully scrutinized to as
certain if such increases are
within regulations.
One important change is the
requirement that all sellers of
services file their price lists
with the Territorial Office of
Price Stabilization.
Specific types of business af
fected are laundries, cleaning
and pressing shops, bowling
alleys, funeral homes, transfer
and storage business, auto re
pair and all other types of re
pair shops which charge the
customer on an hourly rate.
Since all business of this na
ture has been frozen at the
prices they charged during the
period Dec. 19, 1950 to Jan. 20,
1951; this means they now must
file with the OPS a list of the
prices they had in effect at that
time. No individual increases
will be allow’ed unless approved
by the Washington office of
OPS.
This regulation further re
quires that all retail service es
tablishments must display their
ceiling prices in their place of
business for the public to see.
About 900 establishments in
Alaska are affected by this
order.
Ceiling Price Regulation 11
requires restaurants and bars
to file and maintain food-cost
ratios. Elks, Moose and other
lodges or clubs which do not
make bar or restaurant facili
ties available for the general
public are exempt from the pro
visions cf the OPS restaurant
regulations.
Lodges or clubs claiming ex
emption must file an applica
tion for their exemption with
the Territorial Office of Price
Stabilization at Juneau.

7^TO doubt about it —you’ll make a
JL 'Ns mighty nandsotne picture in a
strapping new *51 Buick.
But it isn’t the way you look, but the
way you feci that’s really important.
We’d like you to discover a Buick’s
ease and comfort, a Buick’s power and
performance, a Buick’s steadiness and
control—just to see if maybe you have
been missing a travel treat.
We’d like you to discover what a valve
in-head engine, as Buick builds it —
gingered with Fireball combustion
-can mean in pulse-pounding thrill
and in big miles-per-gallon figures.
We’d like you to learn what coil springs
on all four wheels—not just in front
can do in the matter of smoothing a
rough road and keeping you on an
ever-level keel.
We’d like you to see what generous
roadweight and a rigid torque-tube
mean in solid steadiness of ride—what
Dynaflow Drive* does for you in
downright comfort and convenience —
what a breeze it is to handle so big and
roomy and impressive a car.
Most of all, we’d like you to note the
easy-to-take price tags our cars wear—
what a whale of a lot more automobile
you get for your money in today’s
Buicks than you’ll get elsewhere.
So —come in for a sitting soon, won’t
you? Whether you try a Special,
Super or Roadmaster, you’ll find it
the top buy in its field —and a beauty
from any angle.
Equipment, accessories, trim and models are subject to change without notice.
