WASHINGTON. May 15.-Before
the war 1t was called washington the
Beautiful" Since the war the Nations
capital has won new title. 1t is
Washington the Greedy"
Profiteering in it's worst form has
run such lengths here congress is
about to pass a law aimed at the real
estate pirates and money-wild land
lords who have brought such odium
upon the capital, and incidentally held
up numerically the persons that war
forced to come to Washington
The House already has passed a bill
which would put an excess profit tax
OF 100 per cent on all increases OF rent
more than 10 per cent since the en-
trance of the United States into the
war The Senate committee was
afraid this measure might not get by
the courts. II will bring in a new bill
as substitute this week II will pro-
vide for a rent administrator, a heavy
fine for excessive rents and a Jail
sentence for the greedy landlords. If
the indignation that has been voiced
In Congress, Senate and House alike,

Forced Tenants Out

The latest wrinkle in profiteering is
forced sales Of homes. Persons who
have lived in their homes for years
are suddenly met with an edict to buy
their home at greatly advanced rate,
or else get out There is no place to
go-they have their work here and
they have to borrow the money and
buy. According to Washington news
papers one employee in a government
office had the sale price Of his home
raised on him $4,000 in two weeks
time in one Of these forced sales.
A representative whose rent was
doubled refused to pay it, and defied
the landlord TO put him out. 1t went
to court but he is still sticking in his
apartment One large apartment
house notified it's tenants this week
of an increase in rent to begin next
october for SS Ia per cent but stip-
ulated leases must be signed in ten
days time in order to beat the pas
sage Of the "Rent Bill'' by Congress.
This unchecked profiteering has
given Washington a bad name It
won't live down for years to come.
An energetic campaign was on to get
the ballot for voteless Washington.
There was strong argument for 1t,
too. But the movement suddenly was
dropped. 1t was found that the way
Washington had met the war, with
the greedy spirit everywhere in evil
dence, had put the Nations capital
'fn bad" and Congress wasn't dis
posed to listen.
