Price boards of wholesalers retailers and consumers will set maximum and fair prices for basics with cash and carry and credit delivery distinctions. Local administrators chair boards and newspapers aid in publishing lists and footnotes while enforcing compliance and reporting violations. Twelve Nevada railroad shop workers report higher pay yet claim the work is easy causing fatigue and improved health claims. A Nevada Senate resolution proposes suspending war time assessment work.
