terday the bill ordering the sale of
ernment during the war to relieve
congestion in Industrial centers, and
! to abolish the housing bureau. which
| was charged during debate with hav
/ ing INDUCED in an orgy of extravaganza

the Treasury for sale to private par
| ties except the plaza war workers hotels
in Washington, which are to be oper-
| ated as long as they are necessary and
without expense to the government by
. the public building commission.
| Charges Against Bureau.
Debate on the measure centered
| largely in an attack on the housing
bureau. Charges of profligate expen-
diture of government funds were
| made by several members and the as
sertion was made that the Senate
public buildings committee was con-
Quoting an investigation with a view
of determining whether it should
recommend prosecutions by the De-
partment of Justice.
During the spirited debate on the
bill several members strongly urged
curtailment of the government forces
| in Washington. Representative Mar
tin B. Madden of Illinois, a member
of the republican steering committee.
said that 10000 women ought TO be
sent home.
Representative Simeon .. Fess of
Ohio. chairman of the republican con-
gressional committee, said that Con-
gress must take the initiative in re-
trenchment, as government officials
never will curtail their own bureaus
and divisions that have grown dur
ing the war emergency.

A Way to Stop Speeding.
To the Editor Of The Star

the
Many of the traffic accidents are
caused by reckless driving while striv-
ing to pass street cars in order to avoid
being held up at the corner or at re
car-stop station. Any close observer of
traffic will notice daily these dangerous
spurts Of speed. The most practical and
most easily enforced remedy is to adopt
a law or regulation to prevent an auto
mobile from passing a street car, except
when the latter has stopped on account
of a tie-up Of the line. Such law
would divert considerable traffic from
crowded streets. LAWS against speed
ing are all right when you can enforce
them but it takes an officer on a mo-
tor cycle to do that
Chauffeurs would not dare squirt by
a street car II there were a law against
it. They would be easily caught

WASHINGTON, January 24-Regu-
iation OF live stock prices so as to
assure 4 stable market; either through
continuing the food administration or
by establishing some similar system OF
control was discussed to-day before
congressional committees by presidents
OF two meat-packing firms which do
an annual business of about $1,000
900 U00
Louis r. Swift. OF Swift & Co, con-
cludinE an appearance OF two days
before the House Interstate Commerce
committee. said stable price over
and declared that II food administra-
tion restrictions We're removed now,
disaster would result. J. Ogden Armour,
of Armour & Co, told the Senate Az
ricuiture Committee that some means
or assuring Il price level for some
tine would be agreeable to the pack
ers.
Members of each committee evinccd
considerable interest in the statements
OF OF the packers. and Representative
he thought there should be some gov
ernmcnt agency to control prices ire
spertiyc OF war conditions.
Examination OF Mr.. Armour devel-
oped new interest late to-day. when
the Senate committee asked Fruncis J.
HeneE, who conducted the Federal
Trode Commissions meat-packing in
fairness of method and inaccuracy in
deduction are some of the complaints
which the packers have made against
the commissions inquiry. and Senator
Page, of Vermont. inquired IL the com
mittee's hearing was to degenerate
into prosecution" Levy Mayer, coun-
sci Tor MIR. Armour. consented to the
examination on being accorded the
privilege OF questioning witnesses
Violent fluctuations OF prices were
predicted by Mr.. Swift If food ad-
ho
moved. Like Mr.. Armour, however, he
seemed dubious that government con-
troll over the sale of live stock at
agreed prices would be practicable in
normal times.
Mr.. Armour will appear before the
committee again tomorrow. Edward
Morris, president of Norris & Co. will
testify before the House committee
when 1t meets again Monday.
