car. Chief iv,c Kinnoy reported that he had checked with various dealers a
and found that bids were out of the c uestion and had received from only
one dealer an assurance of early delivery of a Plymouth deluxe sedan for
X1272.00 plus the increase recently authorized by OPA. This was from
Christopher Iuutors, with a trade -in- offer of : 500.00 for the present
car. It was believod, however, that the car could be sold for X900 to a
private party. Jones, McGahee' and 'Tutan would ,_uote no prices, bids
or give any date for delivery. In the event a new cur is purchased, it
would be necessary to purchase a new generator - soecial'- at X122.00
