Considerable empty speech making and useless resOlu-

say these motions and parliamentary fapdoodes
useless because of them will get anything The rail
road boss of the country Secretary McAdoo knows that to
bring million tons of coal year to Washington via the c.
and O. canal would necessate spending probably half
million dollars in terminal facilities at this end of the canal
and perhaps hundred thousand dollars at the Cumberland
end of the canal
If he is going to have six hundred thousand dollars to
spend You wager he will spend it improving the
railroads, and KNOW whereof speak.
All the resolutions in the world will not change the
facts commission is looking into the waterways of
the country Wherever they may be correlated and arcu
lated really to be of help to the transportation Of
the country there to believe the Government will
spend money them. But this Administration is NOT
going spend millions of dollars waterways to help the
railroads unless the country the Government it APP
proves of continuation Of the Government control Of
railroads.
So my friendly advice to associations about to pass
more resolutions trying to induce the c. and o. canal to
become Government owned waterway is to get the facts
and the facts all in the possession of the Director OF
Railways.

Notwithstanding your version OF
the bill, gotten perhaps from what

not from having read it, the bill

the amount which has been taken
unlawfully from him but DOUBLE
that amount.

that profiteering in rents will con-

Ben johnson Writes a
Letter About His
PrO6teering Bill

CONGRESSMAN BEN JOHNSON
has a different view Of his profteer-
ing bill from the impression I have
received Of It after several readings.
| have received a letter from him this
morning, and talked with him last
night. Here Is the letter:
81 Just read your article in The
Times Of today concerning the anti
prohteering bill which have intro
duced.
Your comment on the bill seems
quite clear to me that you have not
read the bill at all. II. however. you
say you have read It, then must in
sist that you read It most carelessly
indeed.

The Washington times., 1918-02-21
HEARD AND SEEN

Therefore. by the income tax Pro-
vision the District Of Columbia gets
the 100 per cent tax in the way Of
compensation for whatever trouble
or expense it may have gone to, and
by the latter provision the victim Of
the extortion may recover DOUBLE
the amount taken in exto-tior.
"You say in your article that you
believe that the most conspicuous
examples Of extortion are tenants
who have sublet their premises at
unheard Of rates / say that the
most conspicuous example Of e1tor-
ton that / have heard of is that de-
manded by the owners Of the -
building, who have notified the
United States Treasury Department.
that the rent for that part Of the
building occupied by the Treasury
will be advanced to three dollars
three dollars, mind you, per square
foot"
The Washington times., 1918-02-21

CONGRESSMAN JOHNSON also
comments upon my statement that
the tax he proposes should not be
made a lien against property when
the extortion arises from the action
Of tenants subletting to others.
Congressman johnson believes the
owners Of property should be al
ways on the job to see what their
tenants are doing.
The Washington times., 1918-02-21

Mr.. johnson requests comment
on his letter. II is this, briefly: II
there can be such difference Of
opinion about the bill. ia It not time
IRE oil sat about the table to thresh
the thing out? There rerer has
been a proper hearing on il. Also
space prevented me from disc,GSsin9
the section Of the bill under which
an aggrisUsd person MAY recover
ertortion from court. TIE 100 per
cent tar is absolute. The recovery
Is something that MAY happen.
