I Trues Kvress Profits Taxes. Governmental price fixing will ! never eliminate profiteering. so Food Administrator Hoover declared in a letter to Senator Simmons, i chairman of Ihe linance committee. ! Hoover urged levying heavy excess 'profits taxes as the only means for returning to Ihe public the money taken by the profiteers. He declared the price llxing policy must be con tinued, because or the shortages ex isting In nearly every commodity. Simmons asked Hoover to writ1 a letter informing the Senate of the probable effect of Government pi ice fixing on the proposed war taxes. I He feared that price fixing had so reduced such profits as to make the increased taxes injurious to busi ness. Hoover said sugar wouiq now lie selling at twenty cents per pound George Weber, who lives be yond Kdcnbower, has again heard from his brother.
