Senator Taft (Rep., O.) told him extension of the controls is "a matter of course" and the only changes in contemplations are such as may be needed to eliminate possible "injus- tire: ' Risk of Inflation "Having chosen greater emphasis on regulatory governmental control without substantially heavier taxes," Stimson 'told the Senate Banking Committee, "I suggest that it would be highly unwise at this stage, at least, to remove or materially modify those controls and thus to run the risk of a price rise that might well be the beginning of the dread spiral of inflation." The Secretary testified in support of legislation to continue stabiliza- tion controls for a year after June 30. Government Benefits The government itself has bene- fited from controlled prices to such an extent, Stimson .said, that its money is "actually purchasing more airplanes, tanks, guns and ammuni- tion than were originally anticipated." James G. Patton, president of the National Farmers Union, asked not only for extension of the stabilization and price controls acts, but for a mandate to the Office of Price Ad- ministration to be "tough" in en- forcement and for restoration of OPA power to order grade labeling and standards "as a protection against the hidden inflation of quality deter- ioration." Patton, whose organization claims a membership of 350,000 small farm- ers, urged also that there be no "emasculating amendments" and specifically opposed any ban on food price subsidies. ,Services To Be' Held for Brown Professor of Dentistry Dies Suddenly in Hone Funeral services for Dr. Robert K.
