To BUILD HOUSES

Alexandria Real Estate and

Chartered
CAPITAL STOCK 100000
Campaign Next Week To Secure Sub
scripti0ns-Purpose to Erect Houses
For New Citizens.

| The committee, of citizens who
| have been investigating the problem
of providing additional houses to
meet the present scute situation IN
our city have found. after carefully
roing into the matter that. before
any real progress can be made. it
will be necessary to know exactly
what financial support such move
ment will be given by those AleNan-
drians who are directly interested
in making our present prosperity
more permanent.
This is brought about by the facts
that proper options on land cannot
be secured and responsible contrac-
tors will not take the time or go TO
the eypense of working out the ac-
tual costs of developing land for
building purposes or submitting es-
Inmates for a practical building pro-
gram, nor will financial iAstltu-
tions consider financing first mort
cages in large amounts. until there
is scme assurance on our part that
the work will be done.
To meet this condition the COM
mittce has appointed an organlza-
ton committee to secure charter
and to ascertain the exact amount
Of support this movement will re-
ceive from our own citizens
A charter has been secured under
the name of the Alexandria Real
Estate and Mortgage Corporation,
with an authorized capital stock Of
100000, and fer the purposes of
incorporation the organization COM
mittee which is composed of Car
roll Pierce, l.. II. Dudley. E. We'll.
Taylor Burke, NJ. B. Harlow. +. I.
King and w. A. Smoot are named
directors, and w. \. Smoot. the
chairman Of the committee, is
named as president. and G. Fl Ev-
ans is named as secretary and treas
urer of the new company.
1t is understood that il meeting
of the stockholders vii! be called as
soon as the stock subscriptions jus
tify it and that the stockholders
will elect their directors who in turn
will elect their officers.
According to present plans Wig
orous campaign will be started
carly next week to secure suhscrlp-
tions to this company ard it is now
expected that the largest part of
that work will be completed in d
few days.
1t is hoped that those whose in
terests are dependent on our city's
prosperity will not under estimate
the Importance of securing addi-
tional housing facilities for Alcxan-
dria and that the present movement
will receive the support it should
have.

.ESCH RAILWAY BILL
WILL PILE Up COSTS

WASHINGTON. Dec. 5.-Thc
House has passed the Esch railroad
bill. which returns the roads to
their private owners. despite Of
forts OF the American Federation Of
Labor. railroad brotherhoods and
farmers ORGANIZATIONS 10 postpone
this action for two years, that the
public may study the entire ques-
ton.
What this action by the house
means to the people is stated by
CONGRESSMAN Kelly of Pennsylya-
MIA. who said:
when the people realize that
this bill validates every dollar of the
fictitious railroad securities ever
issued by these roads. and that they
will be compclled to take the bur
den on their shoulders, there will be
a wondrous change.
"Whcn the people realize that all
the cash grants and bond issues of
cities. and counties and states, all
the land grants of millions Of acres
of the public lands are to be capital
lied and interest and dividends paid
by tho public. there will be a new
feeling.

ployees to break their contracts AS
this was impossible, the Fliuts were
discharged.
The decision does not affect the
individual contracts, which have
been upheld by the United States
Supreme Court, nor does it indicate
that Judge Dayton has less faith in
labor injunctions, but it does sus-
tain organized Iabor's opposition 10
the general conspiracy theory.
The extent to which this theory can
be applied is shown in a case against
the United Mine Workers now pend
ing in the United States Supreme
Court. In this case the Federal
Courts have successfully ruled that
every member of the United Mine
Workers. regardless of his location
in the United States, is party to the
destruction of certain Arkansas
mines several years ago during a
strike of miners. The coal owners
sued for 100000 under the Sher-
man antitrust act and secured tri-
pie damages. The general conspir-
acy" theory is applied and every
member of the United Mine Work

WASHINGTON, Dec. 6.-The pub
lies education on coal profits con
tinues its merry way with officials
who have access to the income tax
returns recording sharp differences,
and coal owners pleading they are
headed for the poor house.
Former Secretary of the Treas
ury McAdoo is the first educator.
He AYERS that when he held office,
in 1917, the coal owners profits
were shocking and udefensible,' %
and ranged as high as 1000 per
cent. He asks that the coal own
els income tax returns he pub
Hshed. Naturally, the coal owners
make a general denial OF these
profits. and say they will go as far
i'm the publication of their incomes
as any other industry. Mr. McAdoo
replies: "The publication of returns
for any other industry has nothing
to do with the case.
Secretary Of the Treasury Glass
then joins the educators and takes
some of the sting out of the McAdoo
claim. He has access to the same
figures as Mr.. McAdoo, whose esti-
mate of 1000 per cent is shaved
down to 500 per cent. The present
Secretary of the Treasury says soft
coal owners east of the Mississippi
river, made in 1917, what might
be termed fabulous profits, the gen
eral average being from 100 to so
per cent on invested capital, the
range being from I 3 to 500 per
cent.
The coal owners softly admit that
t9lI profits were high, but insist
that they do not come within a mil
lion miles more or less of the
I McAdoo-Glass estimates. Since

THEORY OF GENERAL
CONSPIRACY UPSET

PHILIPPI, W. Va, Dec. 6.--Ted-
eral Judge Dayton. known to trade
unionists as an injunction judge, -
has made a surprising decision in
the case of the Eagle Glass Com
pany versus members of the Flint
Glass Workers Union.
He has upset the general con-
spiracy" theory that is frequently
used against trade unionists. and
rules that a member of union can
not be held for the unlawful act of
an officer of the union, unless the
member was a direct party thereto.
The unlawful act Judge Dayton had
in mind was a violation of one of his
iniunctions. The Court held that
because members pay dues to the
union, part of which pay the salary
of the officer charged with wrong
