The United States and Norway
yesterday completed a general COM
mercial agreement. This is the first
general agreement TO be reached
between this country with one OF
the northern neutrals. it was said

the Norwegian government in this
country.
The agreement assures to Norway
supplies to cover her estimated
needs. insofar as those can be sup

needs Of the United States and its
associates in the war. It contains
long schedules enumerating the
quantities of foodstuffs. fodder. fer
tiliZer, textiles. metals and miner
ais, rubber and miscellaneous COM
modities which Norway is entitled

the United States and its associates
in the war of all Norwegian prod
ucts not needed for home consump-
ton.
There are no tonnage strings to
the agreement, il was stated at the
War Trade Board. The arrange
ment is purely and solely one by
which Norway may procure neces-
sary supplies.

D. c. RENT BILL
REPORT READY
FOR CONGRESS
Senate Committee Putting
Finishing Touches on
Profiteering Measure.

With the exception of few minoi
details, the Pomerene anti-rent prof
iteering bill Is nearly ready to be re-
ported back to the Senate for con.
sideration. The Senate District Com
mittee went over the measure thor
oughly yesterday. A reprint Of the
bill has been ordered and the com
mittee will meet again this morning
and put on the final touches.
The amendment to prevent "coi.
ored" sales has been materially
strengthened, providing that tenants
shall not be disturbed by the land
lords unless he himself desires to live
on the property when the lease ex.
pires. All sales OF properly shall be
made subject to the lease, and under
no circumstances will tenants be DIS
turbed while they pay their rent and
behave themselves.
Commissions on the sale Of real
estate must not exceed two per cent
with q minium Of SIS IL agreed to by
the parties in interest, when the ex-
change value is not in excess oi
H,0oo.
Still another amendment adds a
Jail sentence as well as a fine for Of
tenders. Chairman Ben johnson. OF
the House District Committee, who
originally introduced the rent prof.
iteering bill. is quoted as bein% en-
tirely out of sympathy with: the Pom
creme measure, giving as reason
that he thought the measure played
right into the landlords hands In
stead Of protecting the tenants.

BUY
IHOMESOR MOVE
OUT CANCELLED
Change Of Heart by Land
lords When War De-
partment Acts.

Those landlords of washington who
forgot all about the war and formed
'buy or quit brigade some weeks
ago, causing great distress and in
convenience to hundreds of tenants
doing war work here for the govern
rnen, by serving them with eviction
notices, have experienced q change
of heart and. for the most part, have
withdrawn" their ultimatums.
Steadily during this week the num-
ber of complaints from Mr.. Cornmon
Tenant anent the subject of buy or
get out" have been diminishing at
the office Of Mai. z. l.. Potter, CHIEF
of the housing and health division OF
the War Department. Only thirty-five
kicks were registered by eviction
threatened tenants yesterday, Is
against 100 the day before.
Complaints Decrease.
The change Of attitude on the part
of the landlords. however. is indi-
Gated by the fact that practically all
the eviction notices sent to occupants
of Washington houses previous to
this week have been rescinded py the
landlords. OF these there were close
to 200 There are fully this number
of cases still on hand at the housing
bureau. representing this weeks
crop. but it is thought that most OF
these will be adjusted.
For the most part the repentant
landlords have interviewed Maj. Pot
ter and Capt. Peyser, the latter hav'
ing specific charge OF the handling
of these cases, through the medium
of their real estate agents. In all
these cases the former were brought
to look at the matter in n afeasonable
and patriotic spirit which resulted in
their leaving matters where they were
before the profiteering scheme began,
Speaking yesterday about the
boom in patriotic virtue among the
city landlords. Major Potter said:
Boom I'm Patriotism.
when the house owners realize
that there's a very close relation be-
tween the eviction of a war-work-
ing tenant from his house and the
proper prosecution of the war. they
are usually in a mood to relent an6
let the tenant stay at the origina
figure. This is especially SO wher
they are reminded OF what might
happen should the War Department
take it into its head to. take cogniz.
ance or house prohteering In q prac'
tical way. Certainly" continued
Major Potter. "if the thing went or
as it did last week. Congress would
in all probability, take some drasti,
action to stop it."
The unfair nuisance OF landlord
proflteering extended even to house!
occupied by foreign officers. 1t be-
came known yesterday. In thes,
cases the War Department felt Il
to be particularly obnoxious. a.
these men from the allied nations
are here to help America win thu
war, and any hindrance put in theil
| way affecting their proper housing
| would be a decided impediment t.
their usefulness.
Major Potter cited yesterday tn,
cases of the French landlords whC
were disposed to profiteer at the ex,
pense of American officers wher
they first arrived In France. Thi!
evil. he said, was speedily stopped
by the French government when tn,
latter was made aware OF the con
dition of things.

adds $53,500 to the credit of the
