 Peek.

Washington, May 26-Director General Hines recent statement dis approving the price of s47 ton for open-hearth rails quoted the railroad administration by six steel compan- ies, on the ground that it was unwar- ranted in view of the profits of the companies during the last three years, was declared to be "misIea d. ing in statement made here yester- day by George N. Peek, chairman of the recently dissolved industrial board of the department of com merce.
 Had MT. Hines taken as his basis for deductions, the price of $50 ton for rails before that period, said MT. Peck, instead of the profits of the steel companies during the war pe- riod of fixed prices and stimulated production, he must have arrived at the conclusion that the price of $47 a ton was fully justified. To the pre- war price of $50 MT. Peck contend- ed now must be added s2O to cover increased labor cost and further amount for increased cost of trans portation.
 Mir. Peek asserted that the price of s47 a ton on rails was s5 lower than the best railroads was able to secure for itself if the industrial board considered present costs of production.
