WASHINGTON, Aug. 9 (UP)— Americans were promised lower prices for their scotches and sodas. Mint Juleps wines and other liquors today by the office of price administraticn in a change of policy on
liquor reiling prices.

of "wide price
disparities" between stores and communities. They said, however, that reductions would be most apparent in connnunities where military personnel and war industries are con-
centrated.
The change involves a switch from the system of “frozen" prices in effect since March, 1942, to a fixed mark-up for wholesalers and retailers. It is aimed at eliminating "bootlegging" by liquor dealers who either openly or secretly have avoided legal
ceilings.
The new retailer's mark-up will be 33 1-3 per cent over net cost for 'distilled spirits; 50 per cent for wine | and 45 per cent for cordials, liquors
j and specialties.

This would be certain if the Nazis are contemplating a general withdrawal from exposed positions In Russia to concentrate on new lines requiring roughly half the present forces for defense. However, there is every endication that Russia would agree to suspend hostilities with Finland only on j the basis of restoration of the 1940 frontier plus the establishment of a "friendly and neighborly" Finnish
.government.
Germany's situation reportedly has had strong repercussions In Finland, where peace sentiment has been building up for more than a year.
