The Indiana director of the Office of Price Stabilization announced a statewide “we mean business” crackdown on violators of price control regulations last night. \ Director Vernon J Dwyer said special agents “now are checking violators as part of a pattern of investigation which will cover Indiana.” Mr. Dwyer said large populated areas already were checked “and are being kept under constant surveillance.” °° He said the enforcement staff had been increased and that it was possible now to “extend the investigation into the smallest communities.”
‘We Mean Business’
“None will be passed by,” Mr. Dwyer said. “We mean business.” Mr. Dwyer said there was a “period of indecision” during which some businessmen ‘were lax in complying because they
awaited congressional action.” But, he added, that period is over and the OPS will insist on compliance. The crackdown will include manufacturers, processors, distributors, wholesalers, retailers
and opergtors of services. {

said. But he said he expects them to “come to a head soon.”
Probing 10,000 Cases
There is evidence, Mr. Morgan said, some of the big companies set up “fraudulent corporations” to carry on violations of price regulations. He would say they are among some 10,000 cases_he has under investigation. But he would not say what products the 50 companies deal in. Out of the total of 10,000 investigations, he said, he expects prosecutions involving meat, apparel, household equipment, automobiles, textiles, metals and machinery. Mr. Morgan said the question of whether there is a ‘black market” in meat ‘depends on your definition of black market.” But he thinks, along with Robert

Grave Doubts Voiced Over Cease-Fire Deal
By FRANK H. BARTHOLOMEW)|
United Press Staff Corfespondent { TOKYO, Sunday, Aug. 12 —There 1s grave doubt here as to possible successful conclusion of a cease-fire agree-!
ment. Instead, barring an unexpected
change of heart by the Communists, the situation may deter-| jorate steadily into renewal of a! full-scale front, this correspon-
dent has ncluded after convergations with top United Nations authorities here and in Korea. There is no indication that either side will retreat from present diametrically opposite positions over location of the demilitarized zone. The Communists demand that the United Nations retreat to the 38th Parallel as a ‘basic condition” to a truce. They brand the United Nations proposal for effecting the cease-fire along the present battle line as “absurd,” with their own as “kind, just and equitable.”
