INTENSIVE PRICE STUDY PLANNED TO ASSIST NRA Unprecedented Action Will Cover 1.500 Items in Common Use. BY H. O. THOMPSON T'nitrd Prf** Staff Correopondpnt (Coovrieht. 1933. bv United Pr * s) WASHINGTON. Sept. 20.—The most ambitious investigation of retail prices ever undertaken in America was planned today as a part of the national recovery program. Protection of consumers against runaway prices and the setting up of a wholesome supervision of price trends were objectives. The research will be extended to some 1.500 items sold daily in crossroads stores and metropolitan markets. More than 400 cities will be covered by the survey, with emphasis on a true representation of what is happening in the retail field. Scope Will Be Wide For the present, the undertaking will be on an emergency basis. The long-range aspects of the plan contemplate a permanent organization in which twelve to twenty key points, with every one of the more than 400 representative tow'ns and cities reporting retail price trends at least once each month. As companion projects to the retail studies, other committees were attempting to reach a uniform formula for determining cost of production, and the effects of price fixing and price control. It appeared probable that a broad system of price control, as differentiated from strict fixing of prices, would emerge from the program.

Like Plan Once Spurned In many particulars the study of retail prices which was being pushed at the greatest speed was similar to one proposed by Professor William F. Ogburn of the University of Chicago before his resignation from the NRA consumers’ advisory board. Ogburn resigned because his plans were not acted upon. Now, W'eeks afterward, the NRA has found it necessary to rush the study through. Establishment of centers where price information is available will give data which will enable housewives to know fair prices on meats, vegetables, canned goods and other commodities. The study will be complete enough to include all the various outlets for retail goods—independent stores, chain systems, delicatessens and general stores. * OFFERS THREE COURSES Series Primarily for Teacher Part of Butler Extension Instruction. Dr. E. L. Bowman, registrar and life work counselor for the Butler university division of evening and extension courses, will offer a series of three courses, designed primarily for school teachers. The courses which Dr. Bowman will teach at the division are the psychology of high school subjects, the psychology of human motivation, and the fundamentals of guidance. The division will be open Thursday and Friday.
