Speculators Rapped By
Agriculture Secretary
WASHINGTON ("PI Secre
tary of Agriculture Brannan today
accused profit-bent- speculators in
farm and food products of trying
to cash in even at the expense of
the nation's economy and war ef
fort. Such trading on the nation's fu
tures market by a "considerable"
number of speculators, Brannan
said, has contributed to recent
sharp price advances. He called
the speculation "excessive and
unrestrained" and said it is threat
ening the country's economic sta
bility and the war effort.
It is obvious, he said in a for
mal statement, that some means
must be set up to stop, or at
least curb, excessive speculation
if the futures markets are to pro
vide price insurance to merchan
disers and processors.
Bills have been introduced which
would give the government power
to set trading margins in the trad
ing markets.

edly planned the job.
"It wasn't my idea for them to
steal," Mrs. Polock said as she
and her sons were held in $5,000
bail.
'They did it of their own ac
cordjust to help me. I guess."
