The subcommittee OF the committee on
laws and legislation of the Chamber of
Commerce. which for some weeks past
has been conducting hearings with a view
to locating the cause Of the great in
crease in the cost of living. have about
completed their labors and win shortly
submit their report to the full COM
mittee.
1t is expected the report will be sub
mitted at the March meeting OF the
Chamber Of Commerce. embodying such
recommendations as the committee may
deem expedient.
subcommittee Meets.
At the meeting OF the subcommittee
yesterday afternoon Louis E. wflige pre-
sided and the greater portion OF the time
was consumed by the testimony of Thad-
deus c. Dulin. of the firm OF Dulin &
Martin.
Mr.. Dulin was of the opinion that there
had been no appreciate increase in the
cost OF household goods and table sup
piles. such as his firm handles, with the
exception of brooms and feather busters
The shortage in the crop OF broom straw
last year. TO his mind afforded an ade-
quate reason for the increased cost of the
brooms, but he was unable TO account
for the increase Of 50 per cent in the cost
of the busters
IN china, metal, and glassware, the
prices are practically the same as ten
years ago. but additional ornamentation
and decoration has greatly added to the
value Of all articles of this class with the
result that an actual decrease in cost is
evident because the increased value given
for the same money.
An important item. however. that Mr..
Duiin thought should receive the atten-
ton of the Chamber Of Commerce, and Of
Congress, is the discrimination against
this city in the matter of freight trans
portation rates with the consequent affect
on the retail price OF goods.
While railroad officials assert there has
been no Increase in rates affecting the
entire country. as a matter of fact, the
constant Reconsideration which goes on
without intermission, Is IN effect, in
creasing the cost OF transporting all
classes or property
Report Soon Ready.
In closing the meeting. Mr.. Willige said
that while there were several items upon
which the committee would seek add
tional information. the hearings were
practically at an end. and their report
would be completed in a few days
A meeting was also held in the Cham
Der Of Commerce rooms yesterday after
noon OF the subcommittee which is
cooperating with similar committee
from the Alexandria Chamber OF Com
merce in an effort to obtain legislation
necessary for the building Of highway
between this city and Alexandria as an
initial step toward the building Of the
great Mount Vernon boulevard. The. mat
ter was discussed at length, but no final
course OF action was determined upon.

of $1,000 each. changed hands at 1913 and
