oLEO MAKERS FIGHT

Oleomargarine makers who
teamed up for years finally 10
win repeal of federal taxes on
yellow colored oleo are now
fighting among themselves.
In the eyes of the National Milk
Producers federation, the industry
is engaged in dog eat dog" fight
to control the margarine market.
Sen. Herbert Lehman of New
York, introduced a resolution to do
something about it. The New York
er demanded a federal investigation
of possible monopolistic practices by
oleo producers.
Lehman emphasized that seven
firms now produce SIS percent of the
oleo sold in the United States.
Endorsing Lehman's resolution,
Charles w. Holman, secretary of the
Milk Producers federation which
bitterly fought lifting of federal
taxes on yellow oleo, said:
1T is our view that, having given
the oleo industry the right to pro-
duce cheap vegetable oleo in COM
plete imitation of the major charac-
teristics of butter, the congress
should at the very least see to it
that the oleo industry operates un-
der conditions of free competition
and not under monopolistic condi-

SPREAD INCREASING

Rising food costs are increas-
ing the spread between the price
the farmer receives for his
product and the price the ulti-
mate consumer pays.
A senate agriculture subcommit-
tee studying the utilization of farm
crops, is turning its attention to this
old problem-the problem that
when prices go up the spread be-
tween farm and consumer prices all
ways expands.
Sen. Guy M. Gillette, subcommit-
tee chairman, says it appears to him
that food professors are trying to
''dare" congress to slap on controls.
with the abundance which ma
ture has provided this country Gil
lette said, there is plenty of food
for ALL There is no need for slap
ping on controls if only the process
sors and distributors of food prod
ucts will exercise restraint in their
pricing and the consumers a similar
restraint in their purchasing"
Gillette pointed out that there
could be no boarding of bread, yet
prices have advanced from one to
three cents a loaf. There can be no
argument that boarding has been re-
sponsible for this.

more of our economic power than

eral agencies are scheduled to ham
die economic and other emergency
controls which the president may
invoke.
President Truman's position
is that there is no reason why
existing agencies-such as the
u. S. department of agriculture
and the department of COM
merce-with necessary reorgan-
ization. can't do the job.
This indicates that controls will
be handled by the secretary of agri-
culture when they apply to agri-
culture, and by the secretary of
commerce when they apply to bust
ness other than agriculture.
1t indicates further that there
would be no such super-duper agen-
cies as the war food administration,
office of price administration and
other complicated alphabet admins
trations set up. during the last war
with many of their ramifications
confusing farmers, businessmen and
the public alike.
In World war 2 USDA sat back,
doing little else than carrying on
its educational programs, while the
war food administration ran the
show.

Initially he said World War III. -
One reporter repeated the

wiser, to come down from New

in this field"
1t was pointed out later that
Judge Rosenman had participated
in the planning during World War
II and was intimately acquainted
with the steps taken then.
