ACCUSED OF .PRoFITEERING
Report by Federal Board Declares
Meat Packers "Have Preyed Upon
People Internationally"

Washington, July Investigations
carefully conducted have led to the
conclusion that profiteering exists
among American industries at the pres
ent time, due in part to advantage
being taken of "war pressure for
heavy production" and In part to Fin
ordinate greed and barefaced fraud"
the federal trade commission an
nounced In a report sent to the SEN
ate. The report was submitted in re-
sponse to resolution asking the cotl-
mission to furnish the senate with all
figures and information relative to
profiteering, in order that steps might
be taken to remedy present condi-
tions.
The report declares that unprece-
dented profits are shown in a survey
of the packing industry. In this con-
nection 1t Is said: Five meat pack
ers. Armour, Swift, Morris, Wilson and
Cudahy and their subsidiary and affil-
lated companies have monopoIlstic con-
troll of the meat industry and are
reaching out for like dominion in 9th
er products. Their manipulations of
the market embrace every device that
is useful TO them without regard to
law. Their reward expressed in terms
Of profit, reveal that four of these con-
Germs have pocketed in 19l5-1916-1917
$140,O0OOO0. However delicate def
milton is framed for 'profiteering,
these packers have preyed upon the
people unconscionably."
The products investigated, and
which the report covers, are steel,
copper. zinc, nj .el, sulphur, lumber,
coal, -four, canned milk and canned sal
mon. Salaries and bonus paid high Of
ficials also were the subject % inquiry.
Price fixing by the government, the
report says, has tended to prevent the
market from running away, but
al the same time it strengthens the
stronger factors in industry in their
positions and enriches them by profits

declared that he had sunk the ship be-
cause it was carrying American avia-
tion officers and others in the fighting
service of the allies. The only officers
on board the ship were six officers of

containing "a survivors has so for

Subsequently the admiralty issued
the following comment on the sink

people turned adrift in their boats, to
sink or swim rs they best might And

liberation on the part of the submarine
