Rollback Hopes
Hourly Vanished
WASHINGTON (If) Price of
ficials admitted today that their
hopes of rolling back prices on
everything from shoes to sofas had
411 but vanished.
One of the last government at
tempts to roll back factory prices
floundered when the Office of Price
Stabilization late yesterday indefi
nitely postponed some $2,500,000,000
in rollbacks on * manufacturers’
prices.
The postponement was made to
give the government time to form
ulate a policy for price ceilings
under the new controls law. But
OPS officials admitted that chances
for many future manufacturing
price rollbacks were slim.
COMPLIANCE UNECESSARY
" The rollbacks—ana some inqreas
(R-were due to go Into effect next
week on clothing, furniture, ma
chinery, cotton and wool textiles
ahid thousands of other products.
Manufacturers now may go a
»?ad with Increases provided by
Ute'tWgulatlons, but they -do not
«**?>> comply with rollback pa
vilions.
_ OPS had drawn up its rollback
«*dlatt°nß under the old controls
mC which permitted only part of
a manufacturer’s direct cost in-
to be added to his pre-Ko-
JgJUlJirices. The new law requires
<*w«to let deling prices reflect
m cost increases
through July 28.
