CHECK ON PROFITEERING
GOVERNMENT MEASURES IN FRANCE. TAXATION REACHING 100 PER CENT. By Telegraph—Press Association—Copyright. (Received This Day, 11.40 a.m.) PARIS, September 15. Government measures for checking profiteers provide that profits above the maximum for firms engaged in national defence go to the State. The maximum so far is not announced. It will vary for different industries, but will not apply to export firms. When profits exceed a normal return, a capital war tax is applied on a rising scale, reaching one hundred per cent above the fixed maximum.
