TEXT OF PRESIDENTS MESSAGE.

Washington. May 20.-~President
Wilson's message to congress follows:
Gentlemen OF the congress-: I
deeply regret my inability to be pres
ent at the opening Of the extraordinary
session of the congress- It seems to
be be my duty to take part in the
counsels OF the peace conference and
contribute what / can to the solution
of the innumerable questions to whose
settlement 1t has had to address itself.
for they are questions which affect the
peace Of the whole world and from
them. therefore, the United States
cannot stand apart I deemed 1t my
duty to call the congress- together at
this time because 1t was not wise to
postpone longer the provisions which
must be made for the support OF the
government. Many OF the appropria-
tons which are absolutely necessary
for the maintenance Of the govern
ment and the f,Ilfillmept of its varied
obligations for the fiscal year 1919
1920 have not yet been made; the
end of the present fiscal year Is at
hand: and action upon these approi-
atoms can no longer be prudently de-
layed. 1t is necessary. therefore, that
/ should Immediately call your at
tention to this critical need. 1t Is
hardly necessary for me to urge that
IL may receive your prompt attention.

them befor. they are brought to their
complete formulation by the agree

Jones Would Inquire
Into Rental Question

Councilman Carter c. Jones stated
last night that 1T the next meeting Of

committee to look into the reports Of
increased rents, and to inquire into
the causes OF such increases II there
are any, and to then consider the rela-
tive valuation Of the property and Its
assee0me nt
Mr.. Jones indicated last night that
the object OF his resolution will be
to investigate the reports OF ''proh-
teering at the expense of the rent
payer, and to ascertain IL there are
any reasons why there should be an
increase in rents In Richmond.
There has been no increase in
taxation for over two years" said Mr..
Jones. There Is no reason why
houses that have been built for a
mum Der of years. and rented at certain
rates should be raised in rents on the
excuse of high cost of material and
la Dor, for those houses were In no way
effected by the recent high costs"
