Representative Johnson Of
Kentucky Makes Attack on
Pomerene Bill.

Criticism Of the half-and-half

bitter denunciation of "prof1teer-
ing" in Washington. including a vim
| dictive attack upon Senator Pom
! creme. although not mentioning him
by, name. were INDUCED In on the
floor OF the House yesterday by Rep
resentative Johnson of Kentucky.
Taking advantage Of the privileges
Of general debate, Representative
Johnson spoke with unmistakable
reference to Senator Pomerene In Ian
guage and with feeling seldom If
| ever before allowed to go unchecked
! In Congress.
Claims Realty Men Control.
1.-THE real estate people control all
legislation that relates to the Dis
trict of Columbia" he said, and char
acterized the rent measure fathered
by Senator Pomerene as the most
Infamous piece of contemplated legis-
lation that has ever been onered TO
the American people"
He referred to the author of the
bill as this Ohio criminal" and said
he Stands today as the worst internal
enemy that America had during the
war" and later, in speaking of the
man from Ohio" he qualified 1t by
saying, "if he may be called man"
Mr.. Johnson's speech was In part as
follows:
when the war came on. and when
clerks to serve our nation in time OF
war were called here by the thou
sands and thousands, profiteering
commenced, and 1t has run rampant
from that day until this. I introduced
a bill to curb it, and I proposed in
that measure to levy an income tax
Of 100 per cent on all over and above
q fair rental value for property set
out in the bill. It IL too long to be
xone into today. The real estate peo-
pie objected to that very strenuously.
for the very good reason that 1t struck
at profteering. Then the real estate
people went before the District OF
Columbia committee at the other end
Of the Capitol. There they presented
| q bill of their own drafting. One real
estate man there got up and stated
| to that committee, and before the
public, that he wrote that bill. Yet
an eminent man from Ohio assumed
the authorship Of it. That bill was
written by the real estate people to
curb and check themselves. I say
| that they should not be permitted to
write a bill to curb their own ava
riciousness any more than a banker
! or a money lender should write an
interest bill, or any more than thieves
| should write the punishment for lar
ceny.

"Fostered by 0hioan."

That bill should have been written
by somebody that was disinterested
in the subject beyond the de-
sire to prevent profiteering and extor-
ton, especially upon those here who
served our government in its greatest
day of need. The measure which
I have Just mentioned as having been
written by one of the real estate deal
ers here, and sanctioned by the Real
Estate Dealers Association, was fos-
tered, as I said, by an eminent gentle
man from the state Of Ohio. That in
my judgment was the most infamous
piece Of contemplated legislation that
has ever been offered to the American
people. T say that pronteering was
running rampant in this city while
thousands of the poor and hundreds
among the rich were compelled either
to sleep in the railroad station on
their arrival here or spend the luDs
cent for a few nights lodging in the
house of a profiteer. The man who
became responsible for that condition
hailed from the state Of Ohio. say
deliberately, and say thoughtfuly.
that when our boys were in France he
stood agaist their mothers and sisters
who were driven from houses here
into the stormy night. That was the
most dreadful winter recorded by his
tory in this latitude"

THE CONTRAST.

In strict contrast to this is the Glib
bons- O'Dowd bout of recent vintage.
The two Mikes cut loose with their en-
tire repertoire of punches and both
closed out rafting good evening in a
smear Of blood.
It was the first time in history that
Gibbons had tossed caution to the
winds and had stood toe to toe with
an opponent to exchange punches.
But in resorting to the rougher side
OF boxing, Gibbons was playing into the
hands of ODowd Nothing suits the
mddleweight champion so much as
free for-all with no feints and side
steps allowed.
No one has figured out the answer to
Gibbons surprising style. Just why
a clever phantom like Mike of St. Paul
gave up his own attack to employ the
method of another will ever remain
mystery.
1t was his last appearance in the ring
and it may be that in a farewell battle
he was playing long odds in the hope or
landing one good solid kick with the
kayo attached.
Is the x-day bike race in New York
to be classified as an essential indus
try, an amusement or a test of endur-
ance-the latter to include both specta-
tors and entrants? And are they to

THE OPEN GAME.

Nine years ago football came into the
open, as it were. That is to say, the
mass play gave way to a broader at
tack, featured by the forward pass. But
II you care to stop and think, how many
Memphis elevens depended upon an
overhead game in times of stress?
The mass play may have stepped
back in the rule book, but on the field
they still use an eldtime line plunge
now and then.
Yet with the fine results to be at
tanned with an aerial attack, 1t is amaz-
ing how few have realized 1t, Only one
in five has cultivated the passing game
with any degree of success.
In commenting upon the 1919 season
a certain follower of the game dropped
this remark: II have never seen a year
wherein interference was SO generally
overlooked as was the case in 1919. No
team in Memphis brought out its inter-
ference to any high standard"
Quite true. This was the neglected
department of play in all machines.
There was only n vague idea, at best, of
what the word meant. None of the roll
ing interference of other years was
Witnessed nor any of the blocking
The only interference worthy OF the
name is that which bowls an advancing
taclSler upon his ear, and thereby re-
moves him from the coming play.
