RENT GOUCERS INCLUDED IN
 H. C. |. WAR
Johnson Bill Aimed to Pro tect Shelter as Well as
 Food and Clothing
 Against Profteers.

Washington, Aug. 26.-The De- partment of Justice will be authorized to include rent profiteers in all parts
 of the country in its campaign to re-
 duce the high cost of living if Con
 gress passes a bill to be introduced
 in the House tomorrow by Represen- tative Ben Johnson, Democrat, of Ken
 lucky.
 MT. Johnson would make rents nec-
 essities of life, witch are protected
 from profiteering under the ouHse
 bill amending the Food Control AcT
 by a penalty of S5,O0O fine impris-
 onment for two years. or both. MT. Johnson said:
 T see no reason why Congress
 should refuse to protect shelter as
 well as food and clothing against pro-
 fiteers. One such bill passed the House, but the Senate killed it. I be-
 lieve that after it's vote of Fricay m
 Gorsing the Huddleston anti-rent hog amendment, the House will pass a
 rent gouger law if separately intro duced.''
 One feature of the Johnson bill will provide that in the case of furnished rooms no more than 15 per cent. of the cost of furniture may be added to the rent price of the rooms fur nished.
 The Kentucky member already has ! an "anti-rent hog'' bill for the Dis | trict of Columbia pending. He de I clares that Washington landlords | forced rents sky-hiEh by forcing ten ants to rent furnished rooms. The | entire cost of the furnishings ht l asserts, is commonly made back every month in increased rents, and the 1 same situation applies to other cities i In Washington, MT. Johnson contin ! ued, rent profiteering brings in pro | fits as high as 500 per cent. Apart | ments in this city which formerl! rented for $1O0 to $18S a month, h' | declared, now bring in $45O a month i He cited one instance in which ar | ap-r.1nent is renting for s7,000 more ! per year than before the war. ] A former speaker of the House, Mir | Johnson declared, is known to hav'
 rented for $1, 100 a month an apart
 ment that before the war cost only 1 S150 a month.
