Manufacturers face fabric shortages and must meet OPA's minimum low-cost production, prompting withholding of finished goods. Next week OPA will issue new pricing for men and boys wear. Retail Clothiers Association estimates about 700000 suits hoarded. A federal grand jury in New York probes a conspiracy among textile converters and brokers to withhold fabric to boost OPA prices.
