All these directors Of International
Nickel have been hard hit on their
pocketbook erv by Secretary
Daniels low-price policy.
Daniels has hammered down the
price of arraor-plate and ~projectiles to
a point where there are no ex-
orbitant profits only a fair margin.
He has cut the price of copper to the
navy half in two as compared with
the open market price. He has in
sisted on getting steel at cost plus a
fair profit less than half what the
steel companies have beenaS soaking
the allies Andsthe public. ~
In other words, Secretary Daniels
has forced Colonel Thompson, and his
fellow directors of the International
Nickel Co. and his associates in the
Navy League to give up millions Of
dollars of war profits. Naturally they
are sore: naturally they would like to
discredit Daniels;5 naturally. they
would like to see him resign.
That is all there is to the attacks
of the Navy league on Secretary
Daniels and his administration Of the
a v department, and the public
ought to keep this in mind whenever
Colonel Thompson starts n OF his
periodic campaigns.
