HOUSING, CAR SERVICE
NEEDED FOR INDUSTRY
Business Men Here Confident That
City Will Be Able to Meet
Problem Successfully.

Washington should provide more
housing accommodations and increase
it's car facilities in connection with
the campaign to attract industries to
the city. in the opinion of Charles G.
Adams, president of the Empire State
Club.
THE first requisite of a decent-sized
industry" said Mr.. Adams. 'is to find
a place where there are ample hous-
ing accommodations at a reasonable
figure for their men. This is con-
dition that is absolutely foreign to
Washington at present, and is the
first thing that commercial bodies
should remedy.
Cannot Go to Suburbs.
They should adequately care for the
employees who are here before they
they can go to the suburbs is met
with impossible transportation"
Charles J. Columbus, secretary of
the Merchants and Manufacturers
Association, said today that the asso-
citation is not forgetting housing and
to bring manufacturing interests to
Washington.
Housing conditions are improving
in the District" Mr.. Columbus stated,
"and in short time building opera
tions no doubt will be started on nu-
merous home developments"
Mr.. Columbus said this question of
housing employees was being consid-
cred by the association in connection
with the proposal recently put forth
by the District authorities to divide
the city into zones for various types
of buildings.
AS to transportation. the secretary
expressed the belief that street car
service already is improving as a
result of the ability Of the companies
to get more men.
Can Obtain Bungalows.
Should an industry unexpectedly
decide to take advantage of the op-
portunities offered to locate in or near
Washington, Mr.. Columbus said. the
association would be able to secure
on thirty days notice $50 small bun
galows to house the employees of the
plant while permanent accommoda
tions were being built. These bunga-
lows were built by the housing bu-
reau of the Department of Labor dur
ing the war.
The merchants feel confident that if
they can convince business interests
Of the chances that exist in Washing
ton for the setting up of factories to
serve the south. these local problems
of housing and transportation can be
worked out.

"STUNG" BY B0OTLEGGER
YOU'LL GET NO SYMPATHY
Would-Be Buyers of Such Whisky
Lucky if They Get Tea, Says
~. Maj. Pullman.

Persons who purchase some weak
substitute, thinking they are buying
whisky, will get no redress from the
police.
'The 'rummy' who encourages boot
logging is as useless a citizen as the
bootlegger,' Maj. Raymond w. Pull
man. superintendent of police, told
members of the police force this
morning.
,"Both are parasites of society" he
added. Both are disgraces to the
community In which they live
Maj. Pullman's bootleg message was
conveyed in q, bulletin headed wine
gar and Tea" and contained an an
sWer to the numerous queries as to
what should be done with persons
who sell cold tea, vinegar and other
non-intoxicants to persons looking for
bootleg whisky.
Cold Tea Not So Bad.
The message, in part. reads as fol-
lows:
'If any person complains to a po-
liceman and says that he has paid a
dollar or two for a half-pint of vine
gar, cider, stale near beer or any OF
the other concoctions which bootleg
gers are selling for whisky do not
waste any sympathy on the person
who has offered money to another
person to violate the anti-booze law.
"a man who makes the bootleg busi-
ness possible by offering money for
liquor sold in violation of law is usu-
ally no better than the bootlegger. If
a man gets tea instead Of bootleg
whisky, telf him he is lucky after all.
even if he parted with perfectly good
money; cold tea is not nearly so bad
for the stomach as bootleg whisky.
This information is published for
the benefit of those who have asked
whether persons selling vinegar or
tea for whisky should be charged
with false pretenses. No, indeed. The
vinegar sellers hurt the bootleg busi-
ness as much almost as prison sem
tences."

tered by certain DISTINGUISHED men
who have fortified their arguments by
characterizing all those who opposed

ed, etc. 1t has even been suggested
that those who ventured to INQUIRE

nigh as heaven. but pointed in the
opposite direction

great to be settled by the mere call

Position Taken by Poland.

Poland believes, that in justice to
these Inhabitants, this territory should
be under American or allied control
and not turned over to Germany, If
the supreme council does not see At
to give it to the Polish nation.
The plan regarding the western bor-
der OF Poland from Schneidemuhl
southwark is to give to that republic
Rarnbaum, Lissa and Krotoschin. In
German Silesia the Poles will get the
regions of Oppein and kewpen. The
Polish and Czech frontiers, according
to the commissions plan, will meet
east of Neustadt. south of Oppein. The
northern frontiers of Poland and
those on the east and south have not
yet been completed by the commission

which 1t divides: thence through
Freische Haff to the west OF Elbing
and Osterode. and thence south to the
present Polish Prussian border.
What is especially Objectionable to
the Poles is the proposition to give
to Germany the territory just men
toned. For the greater part the in
.abitants in these sections are Polish.
and in certain sections the population
is almost entirely Polish and always
has been.

Plan IS Obnoxious
T0POLANDERS HERE
Suggested "Corridor" for
Country's Exit to Baltic
Sea Is Protested.

Establishment of corridor through
Poland. as a means of affording that
country an exit to the Baltic sea.
which is outlined in a report to the
peace conference from the special
commission considering Polish claims,
is by no means pleasing to representa-
tives in Washington Of this new re-
public.
The adoption of the corridor plan is
highly disturbing to these representa-
tives, and they cannot force them
selves to believe that the conference
will act favorably upon the report Of
the commission. If this plan is put
into effect 1t would leave Poland In a
bad wayss they say. In fact. it would
to such an extent that these repre-
sentatives doubt If the gaining Of
Danzig, as provided in the plan. would
be worth the price.
Will Bring Pressure to Bear.
Much pressure will be brought to
bear by Polish representatives and
friends during the examination of the
commissions report by the supreme
council. The Poles naturally fear the
| future establishment of other cor
| ridors through their nation, II the one
proposed by this commission meets
| with the approval of the supreme
council.
For instance, it may be necessary to
grant a corridor to afford Switzer-
| land or some other interior country
an exit to the Baltic. all of which
the Polish representatives contend
| would be most undesirable. and would
work considerable of a hardship IN
| that it would always be source OF
possible friction and strife.

League Has a New Scheme
Cannot Successfully lmpeach Insurgen State Oics So
Plan to Bring Action and Adjourn Legislature
for Year

One of the rawest proposals yet
brought to light is aired by the Fargo
Forum in recent issue which explains
the plans of the league bosses to get
rid of LANCER, Hall, Kositzky and OIL
son, insurgent league officials.
The law provides that impcachments
be handled MS follows: A majority
vote of the house of representatives
may initiate the action, the officials
concerned then being automatically
suspended from Office until the COM
pIetion of the trial. The trial isheard
by the senate, and two-thirds vote
is necessary to convict.
The league cannot muster the nee
essary two-thirds. They think they
can get majority in the house.
So, to evade the law and get the
same result, it is proposed to call
special session, have the house vote
for impeachment, and THEN AD--
JOURN FOR A YEAR. The officials
concerned would then be suspended
during that time, and the governor
could appoint officials to take their
place.
Such action would damn the Nom
partisan League politically, and they
would not be able to make even q
close race next year. But the Town
ley crew would clean house in the
meantime.
LANCER, Hall and Kositzky have
been able to do wonders up to date in
keeping a line on the activities of the
grafters that have been trying to rob
the state in the name of the farmers
of North Dakota. If the new league
scheme can be put acrossn the lord

OUT FOR THE DOUGH

WI ToN 111H WYNN
The Bank of North Dakota is
MT satisfied with beating the
school districts, cities, villages,
c0uties and state out of interest
money on deposits. They have
another little scheme for raising
money to pay the fat salaries Of
their hundred-thousand dollar
payroll.
School district treasurers re-
port to the Record that they are
being charged even for their
check books, something hereto
fore always furnished free by
private banks. 1t is said that
the Bank of North Dakota is
charging all the way from fifty
cents to 81 for ck-bo0ks, and
the districts thus held up have
no choice, as the law requires
them to bank with this particu-
lar financial institution.
