 By controlling labor and capital" he said, i've effectively eliminate the stacker. By preparing contract forms to take the profit out of war, by regulating the procurements of supply departments and other gov ernmental Bureaus to avoid compe- tition in the market and by ration ing supplies of power, labor, fuel and transportation, we eliminate the prefiteer."
 MT. Davis said the needs of the nation in time of war have been de- termined and that i've are survey ing industry so that we may know for each plant just what kind of war work 1t is best prepared to do."
 The speaker avowed that If Americas needs had been known before the world war. s240,000,000 would have been saved on leather goods alone. Studies he said were being made of the important com- modities which would be required in event of war.
