Councilman Wants Charge
Against House Owners
Investigated

man from the Forty-sixth Ward, pre-
sented a resolution asking for the ap-
pointment of committee of five mem
bers from each chamber to investigate
charges Of house profteering In various
sections of the city
The preamble of the resolution sets
out the fact that in some localities
landlords have raised rentals to pro-
hibitive figure and have ordered tenants
to buy or move. 1t also states that
many persons have obeyed the Federal

necessitates their selling their coal at
reduction or moving 1t at increased
cost

ized to make a thorough investigation
and report conditions to the Federal
authorities at Washington.
