Government Determined to Administer
 A Knockout BLow to Food Profiteers
Thousands of Dollars Worth of Butter, Coffee and Sugar Seized in Chicago, St. Louis and Birmingham Yesterday
By Associated Pres.

Washington, August h. Indications of the real punch behind the governments cam paign to reduce the high cost of living were given today in 1nmistakable fashion in many cities.
 While Attorney General Palmer was telling the Senate. agriculture commit tee that he intended to prosecute every dealer guilty of selling at higher prices than those listed by the fair price com mittees of each county, word came from Chicago, St. Louis and Birmingham of seizures of great quantities of food stuffs by federal officials. who recently food control act to stop hoarding. In Chicago, 1,2S2 tubs of butter, worth s50,000 was seized, in St. Louis 2S4. .1SO pounds of coffee, which has been show ing rapid advances in price, and in Birmingham 100 barrels of sugar
 MT. Palmer tefd the Senate committee that he believed the great majority of fs rmers and food dealers were not prot fiteering, but that the suggested amendment to the food control act ex- tending into clothing and providing a criminal penalty of $5,00O fine or two years imprisonment or both, was neces- sary to make effective the campaign against those who are dishonestly gouging the public. There was a divi- sion of opinion among the senators as to the advisability of the legislation, , .la a.-Ja Jar-ir. hot ha <4x-.o gave the department of justice too drastic powers over commerce. while oth- CTS questioned the constitutionality of extending the life of the food control act beyond the declaration of peace, as has been suggested.
 .'Given this penalty, we can break the backbone of this profiteering in 60 days" Mir. Palmer retorted crisply, and then you won't have to worry about oonstitu- tionality.''
