"Public action will no doubt cause many who have perhaps unwittingly adopted illegal methods to abandon them."

"We are dealing, gentlemen of the Congress, I need hardly say, with, very critical and very difficult matters."

"By way of immediate relief, surplus stocks of both food and clothing in the hands of the Government will be sold."

"Opinion and concerted action on the part of purchasers can probably do the rest."
