TRAITOR BRAND
ON RENT PIRATE

Commissioner Brownlow today de
noUnced rent prohteers in the District
as traitors to the Government in its
efforts to man the war machine here.
and to the city in which they live and
own property. He urged Immediate
passage OF the Salisbury resolution to
stop eviction OF tenants until the final
solution may be reached by legisla-
tion of a more permanent nature.
Il hope" he said, the House will
adopt the Salisbury joint resolution
ct once, to prevent the eviction Of
tenants and govern the situation I'M
til both houses Of Congress compose
their differences. and make impossible
the shameful attempt b. many to
profiteer in these days OF stress in the
National Capital.
Delay will be probable II the Sen
ate passes the Pomerene bill. for al
will necessarily require some time to-
settle the differences between the two
branches. since the johnson biz
which has passed the House, is en-
tirely different in its method OF at
tack on what is an admitted evil.
Increases Not Justified.
Whatever method finally is adopt
ed by Congress to stop rent profteer
ing, I believe it will enact a law
that may be administered easily, and
with teeth sufficiently sharp to pre-
vent evasion.
I'm my opinion, rent increases are
not justified. There may be excep- |
tions and instances wherein this rule |
would work injustice. Provision !
should be made for them but no gen
eral rent advances should be per /
mitted.
Take apartment houses. II is true
there has been increase in cost Of coal
and service. But in every one OF
which I know this added expense has !
been more than compensated for by
the fact that all apartments are filled 1
all the time: whereas in former years, /
when operating costs were lower
there were always several apartments |
vacant
This wiplng out OF what the prop
erty owner knows as the percentage
OF vacancy certainly will take care
OF the added costs OF operation refer
red to.
Form Of Stacking.
'Rent profiteers in the National
Capital at this time are only one
grade in despicable nature below the
Stacker and not far above the traitor
In one sense, they are traitors to
the city in which they live and own
property.
Rent profiteering IS shameful,
and should be condemned in unmeas-
ured terms. I am convinced that, II
this manifestation OF greed be not
stopped, Washington will have a bad
reputation in the opinion OF the whole
country, from which IL will not re-
cover in a generation
Therefore, I call on all persons
who have facts showing attempted
rent profiteering to write out the
facts and send them to the District
Council Of Defense, roof 500, District
building.
Il call on all patriotic persons in
Washington to make plain in their
daily contacts with others their utter
condemnation Of the rent profiteer
and all his works" II
