Western Pine in Nevada, Arizona Golden Petersen Concatenation Brought Under Price Ceiling

San Francisco, March 29.-Western pine and associated species of lumber produced in Nevada and Arizona, as well as that produced in Wyoming, Colorado, South Dakota, Utah and New Mexico, were brought under dollar-andcents ceilings today by the Office of price Administration.

The action was brought about by extending the geographical scope of maximum price regulation no. 94 and was one of the major changes accomplished by amendment no. 1 to that regulation effective April 5.

Until now the mills in the seven states were covered bv the general maximum price regulation, and the effect of the action today is to place them under the same regulation covering western pine producers of California, Washing_ ton, Oregon, Montana, and Idaho.

The amendment also made clear that all species com_ mercially sold as western, Ponderosa, or Mexican pine are covered by the regulation, including Lodgepole pine, Mexican White Pine, Chihuahua pine, and Arizona pine. All pine produced in Mexico and sold in this countrv is under the regulation.
