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.

Firm Doesn't Drop Natural Gas Plans
THE POWER company has not abandoned its plans for reconverting to natural gas. Company attorneys study the Federal Power Commission decision and indicate a new petition may be filed. President John L. Hanley says the denial of the current petition leaves the way open to limit another petition and proof of public convenience and necessity for changing natural gas in the Syracuse Oswego Utica and Watertown area.

OPA Plans Handling Charge Changes for Postwar Cars
The Office of Price Administration weighs keeping its price control role while reestablishing prewar dealer handling charges, cutting the projected 5 percent retail ceiling rise to about 3 percent. 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.
