WHAT'S IN oLEoMARGARINEf
Collector OF Internal Revenue Cannot Di
vuige Its Ingredients because IL 10
n business secret

Washington, April 24.-The ways
and means committee Monday con.
sidered the resolutions of Representa-
tives Tawney and Grout calling on
the Internal revenue officials for spe-
cife information concerning oleomar.
garine. The discussion was quite
brisk as Mr.. Tawney was emphatic in
the contention that as oleomargarine
was food product congress and the
public were entitled to know its in.
gradients. Against this, however, il
was argued that the law forbade the
internal revenue officials from dis.
closing private processes and business
secrets. This view prevailed and ac.
cordingly the committee directed ad-
verse reports. Mr.. Tawney stated
that there would be a minority re.
port and he would carry the con
test to the floor of the house, where
he believed the required information
would be ordered.
