NORFOLK. ? Two nnannnenaannU J
of poliey changes in thn Marine Air
i Reserve enlistment program have been
j made by Major F. J. Fraser, U8MC,

: Marine Corps Reserve with the same
rank as at the time of discharge.
They will receive- full pay and allow

allowance during the time they serve
with the Norfolk detachment. There '
are vacancies at present for cooks,
ikdio mil ra.lar technician*. office
personnel, general and specialist aircraft
mechanics and technicians, par
u hute riggers, armorers, and line an 1
engineering chiefs.
Service in the Marine Air Reaerrve
is purely voluntary and during time
of peace enlisted men of the Marino
Corps Reserve may be discharged upon
requests. The present state of national
emergency is not considered
time of peace, but requests for dia- I
charge or release to inactive duty ]
will receive immediate consideration, j
Former servicemen interested In affiliating

instead benefit* dealers and diatriba- J
torj by restoring their peacetime '
markups and trade discounts. The ac- |
t.uu results in hu average increase of J
about $100 per car, he tstimated.
Ol'A has also set up ceiling prices I
ior used 1045 and 1046 passenger cars
Johnson said, and these price lists
are available for reference by pros
pective buyers at all Price Control
Boards.
These lists give ceiling prices on
lioth an "as is'' and a "warranted"
basis, the OPA official said. Unlike
ceilings on earlier models, wrannate t
-eilings on '45 .and '46 models arc
only 15 percent above the "as is"
eilings. since the later models customarily
require less reconditioning ar. l
repairing than the earlier cars, Johnson
explained.
