Gas Bid Faces Federal Scrutiny Over Central New York Plans

The Federal Power Commission ruled Central New York Power Corporation is a natural gas company under the Natural Gas Act and subject to Interstate regulation. The case centers on a proposed 45 mile gas line, 61 miles of line, and an 1,200 horsepower compressor near Syracuse, with opposition from labor groups including the Brotherhood of Railroad Trainmen. New York State Natural Gas Corporation seeks to lift limits on gas sales in NY and PA, affecting services to several utilities and potential customers.

National Automobile Dealers Association official Lee W. Moran says a 3 percent addition is about right and that public resistance to higher car prices is unlikely. Moran predicts prices will fall below ceilings once production normalizes, as auto output remains far below prewar levels. The 7.3 percent average car price increase adds to prior boosts for wartime costs and steel price hikes, with four door models showing ceilings $134 to $846 higher than 1942.
