FOOD BILL FIGHT
NOW CENTERS ON
RENT REGULATION

What win be done with respect to
profiteering in rentals in the District
of Columbia is one OF the troublesome
problems before the House and SEN
ate conferees on the food production
bill.
This bill. which carries the Done
dry rider and the Pomerene amend
ment for a rental administration, has
been sent to conference.
Members of the conference COM
mittee indicated today that unless the
Pomerene amendment were dropped
from the bill entirely, as 1t may be
rental legislation of a more drastic
character would be attached to the
measure. House conferees are by no
means satisfied with the Pomerene
amendment They say 1t has too
many loopholes for the landlords.
Chairman Ben johnson. OF the House
District Committee, denounces it.
Chairman Lever, of the House Com
r1ittee on Agriculture. is strongly dis
posed to insist that the Pomerene
amendment be dropped out OF the food
production bill. He considers that 1t
has no place there.
Dry leaders are not entirely pleased
with the idea Of trying to put rent
legislation on the food production
bill. They fear II may endanger this
bill by the delay 1t may cause.

READING MAY SWAP
POST WITH BALFOUR

LONDON, Sept .24.-Lord Reading
who was expected to sail for the
United States a week ago, is still In
London. There is an interesting ru-
NOR in legal circles, based on what
seems to be good authority, that
Lord Reading will not return to
Warrington, but will be succeeded by
Arthur ]. Balfour. The report has II
that Lord Reading will become Sec
retary OF Foreign Affairs.
The reasons advanced for the prob
ability of this change is Lord Read
ing's knowledge of international law
and that the experience gained at
the interaIlied conferences and in
negotiations with the United States
and other allied countries would
make him an ideal Foreign Minister,
particularly in view OF the possibili-
ties involved with the settlement OF
peace terms.
