‘Patterson was the first government witness to reply to charges of industrialists that the law was administered unfairly by inexperienced officials and that it was no longer : needed. The replies aré being in what is expected to be the senate committee's last open hearings on the house: EE is law was needed in 1942 “as a check against enormous profits” of many

war contractors, and that “the obRotmal conditions still prevalent

er ls HE era ic still make the war contract renegotiation law necessary, t iy told the senate finance committee that administration o the law “has been fair and reasonable.”

WASHINGTON, Dec. 6 (U. P.)— Government officials are counting on the new corn price ceilings which go into effect today to induce

make it necessary to continue such Jegislation.” = War production, he said, has not been “delayed or im- | peded” by the law. Patterson replied to| gharges by ‘Willard F.

“The law has been a safeguard | pot only to the interests of the gov- | “srament, but also to the legitimate | interests of industry,” Patterson said. “American industry as al whole does not-want-to-come out! ‘of this war with the label of profiteer fastened to it.” { a said the law had saved ‘thie government to date $5,300,000,000, of | which $2,500,000.000 was in’ recovered cash and $23800,000,000 in re-| duced prices for future deliveries.|
