Of the District of Columbia Commit
tee, under which landlords in Wash
ington must suspend evictions dur
ing the present Congress in the case
of all paying and well-behaved ten
ants who hold for a month or more,
under verbal or written contracts.
This now goes TO the House. II was
expected that the Pomerene anti
proiteering bill, providing a rent
administrator" for. the District,
would be taken up. but discussion
was not concluded on a bill regulat-
ing overdrafts in national banks so
as TO harmonic the local practice
under State laws. Perhaps the
most interesting development Of the
discussion was Senator Shafroth's
expression of a wish to see all State
banks "natiOnalized." That is now
manifestly the programme leave
nothing in the banking business sub
ject to State control.

startling facts concerning the Demon

too, and sang several temperance
songs with piano accompaniment by
his daughter, Miss Blanch. Rev. T.
