/ planning n Il Ia true that Mr. Bed
] ford Is talking this way IL might as
well be here stated that the real
/ facts are that the reason congress
( Ia always taking crack at the oil

mcnt for new election OF officers

But read what follows:
ut Is perhaps unfortunate that
right at this time the report Of the

gard to excessive profits III many

increasing the taxation and II will
inevitably be influenced by this re-
port In this report the commits
sion charges that the chief causes
for abuses complained OF are, In
ordinate greed and bare faced fraud
as well as war pressure for heavy
production" But none of these
charges are evident In that portion OF
the report which applies to the pet
roleum industry, AS a matter OF
fact the report Itself is apparently
incomplete and possibly is paSAQt,L'
