EXCESSIVE PROFITS NOW
MAKE WAR PLANS LAG
Spirit of Profiteerng Permeates Ma
ational Life, Says Patriotic
Education Society.

WASHINGTON.-That profiteering
is not confined to big business, but
that "the spirit of profiteering has
permeated our national life to an
alarming extent" is the burden of a
remarkable statement issued here
Saturday by the Patriotic Education
society. This statement is just an
other manifestation of the growing
indignation against conditions which
are causing the nation to lag in its
war plans.
The statement deals with the land
lords who raise rents unduly, retail
ers who seize war as an excuse for
charging exorbitant profits and labor
on government jobs. which, the soci
ETY. asserts, shares the spoils of dis
honest contractors by loafing on the
job.
