Ga.), said he would Introduce Immediately a bill to require "big Chambers of Commerce, labor unions and all special Interest groups" to report to federal agency their assets, lia bilities, contributions and expendi tures.

The heavily documented report made these observations: Industry: Manufacturers as a whole should not be criticized, but in view of the fact that many made profits far above 7 per cent the highest was 247 per cent on a small order "the necessity is clearly indicated for measure to be taken to prevent ex cessive and unconscionable profits." Labor : "Tremendous financial gains' by labor organizations represented " astounding picture of concentration of wealth" which should lead to union registration. Congress should enact legislation to prevent inter ference with the war program by strikes and other work stoppages. (Both of these provisions are in a house approved bill passed before the united States went to war and which is pending In the senate).

"Results to date indicate that the cost-plus-fixed - lee contract minimizes the possibility of profi teeding where a close check is kept upon costs."

Salvatore Gauci, mechanical and electrical supervisor arrived in Can ada a year or so after the first World war.
