Bipartisan Criticism
LeyeIed at 0Ieo Bill OIL
Dairy State Senator

The oleomargarlne tax repeal
bill backed by 26 dairy State Sena-
tors came up against some BIZ
partisan criticism in the Senate
Finance Committee yesterday.
Senators George, Democrat, OF
Georgia and Millikin, Republican
of Colorado, raised the question
whether the dairy bloc measure
might not harm dairymen and the
butter industry in the long run.
The bill, written by Senator
Wiley. Republican, Of Wisconsin,
repeals Federal taxes and license
fees on margarine but bans inter-
state shipment of the colored
product.
Sees Plant Over Expansion.
Senator Millikin said he saw the
possibility Of margarine plants
cropping up in States that do not
have any now. He added:
81 am somewhat disturbed that
under the Wiley Bill you would
wind up with no protection for
butter at all, except in States
which have their own bans against
yellow margarine"
Senator George, the committee
chairman. predicted that the bill
would result In an over-expansion
of margarine plants. and bring
about IAN uneconomic condition" 4"
Senator Mundt, Republican, of
South Dakota, admitted the Wiley
bill was not "foolproof, but it
makes 1t more difficult for pro-
ducers to put oleo on consumers
tables"
The Wiley bill also received the
support of Senator Thye, and
Representative Murray. both Min
nesota, Republicans. who appeared
as witnesses.
To Resume Tomorrow.
A prediction that small slap
dash factories may quickly spring
up" In States that permit sale of
margarine, should the Wiley bill
pass, came from Jean Whitehill,
managing editor of the Consumers
Union. in a statement submitted
to the committee.
She supported the repeal bill
passed by the House and spon-
sored by Representative Poage.
Democrat, of Texas. It repeals
taxes and fees and allows free
flow of colored margarine.
Harold o. Smith, jr.. executive
vice president of the United States
Wholesale Grocers Association,
voiced opposition to the Wiley
measure and support of the Poage
bill.
The hearing will resume to-
morrow morning and is expected
to wind up by Wednesday.
Army Restriction Lifted.
In another development yester-
day, the House Appropriations
Committee voted to permit the
Army to buy and use margarine
in any way it chooses. Present
law permits the Army to buy
margarine for cooking purposes
but not for table use unless there
has been an expressed preference
for 1t.
The committee cut this out of
the law in approving the military
