WALSH LATEST TO
WALL0P pR0FITEER
(Pv Associated Pressl

WASHINGTON, May 1S,-PrOfteer-
ing was denounced today in the sem
ate by Senator Walsh, Democrat, of
Massachusetts, who asserted that ex-
tortions of profteers are principally
because OF widespread unrest and that
congress has been "culpably inactive"
in moving to relieve the situation.
Senator Walsh cited many large div
idends, including stock dividends, paid
recently He said public outcries
against the high cost of living were
an acute political problem.
Republican leadership and majori-
ties in congress, the Massachusetts
senator said are responsible for fail
ure to enact anti-proiteering legisla-
ton. The Republicans, he added, can
not shift the esponsibility to the
president.
He Makes Recommendations
All recommendations made by Sena-
tor Walsh to check profiteering We're:
Senatorial investigation of income
tax returns to disclose individual
protiteers.
Passage of several pending bills, in
Guiding the packer-regulatio measure,
the McNary bill to stamp cost price,
on shoes, the cold storage regulation
bill and others.
81 further recommend" said Senator
Walsh, that congress promptly inaug-
urates public trading on a large scale
unless exorbitant profits are Holun-
tarily and materially reduced at once.
In other words, | recommend govern
ment competition as an availa BILE
remedy"

Grain Traders Afraid Of
Relief Tax on Futures


WASHINGTON, D. c., May 1S-A
>ax on deals in grain futures proposed
in connection with soldier relief leg
islation would disrupt the grain mar
ket, representatives of the Chicago
board of trade and the Minneapolis
chamber of commerce today told the
house ways and means committee
Conditions in the grain trade, they
said, would resemble those now ex-
listing as to the country's sugar sup
ply.
Charles H. Candy, former president
of the Chicago board, said the levy
proposed of two cents on every SO
of future sales would be equivalent to
two-thirds Of cent on every bushel
of grain. 1t would produce too little
revenue to justify chances of destroy
ing the grain trade, he argued.

BERLIN, May 17.-Only a few Ber-

the rejection of the Versailles treaty
but suggests it will be necessary to
enter into friendly relations with the
United States for the adjustment of
many mooted issues before normal
