Women's Reserves For Navy; Oath Is Given fo Big Chief WASHINGTON, Aug. 3—Dr. Mil- fred McAfee, 42, President of Wel- lesley, Commander as head of the Worn- cn’s Reserve of the Navy. The oath was adminfstered by Secretacy of Navy Frank Knox I today became Lieutenant * Mrs. lloyd Reld Bags 400-Pound Black Bear 12 Miles from Juneau NEW RULES ISSUED FOR ALASKA OPA Regulationft; vers Com- modifies Imported fo Terrifory for Sale WASHINGTON, Aug. 3.—All price controlled commodities imported into Alaska and resold there are]| being brought under the cost plus pricing method in a new regulation issued by the Office of Price Ad- ministration. The amendment supercedes an | earlier action providing for the same | system of pricing, but applying only to the commodities covered in the | continental Uniled States. By a universal price ceiling, the | new regulation covers those com- modities and also those covered in the continental U. S. by a special price order. The maximum price of retailer, commodities not actually manu- factured in Alaska will be based on the direct cost to the seller, plus the | amount of markup in dollars and cents which the seller used in his highest selling price for the same or similar article sold between No- vember 7 and December 6 of last year. The regulation, however, does not include the so-called export sales from the seller outside Alaska to the purchaser in Alaska. Export sales are governed by the existing export price provisions. Commodities produced and sold in Alaska continue under the universal | price ceiling or other special pncc orders.
