HOUSING CORPORATION
T0EXPLA|N PROJECTS
Will Give Congress Committee
Opinion Regarding Continuation
of d. C. Construction Program.

The opinion of the United States
Housing Corporation in regard to
continuation of work on housing prof.
ects in Washington is to be pre-
scented to the House committee on
public buildings and grounds this
afternoon.
Otto n. Eidiitz, chief of the corpora
ton, and Bert L. Fenner testified to-
day regarding the cost and percen-
tage of completion on housing projects
throughout the country. They took
these projects alpha betica1ly and
recommended to the committee those
which they believed should be con-
tinued and those which should be
abandoned. They got as far as Nor
folk on the list.
Members of the committee indicated
that they are in favor of continuing
all housing projects where it is shown
that there will be a large number of
workmen employed for a considerable
length of time who will need such ac-
commodations. The committee will
largely be guided by the opinion of
the housing officials.
The statement made today shows
how far advanced the various projects
are and the cost per unit.

EDWIN S. GEE ARRESTED
FOR FIRING REVOLVER
Former Chief Auditor for War
Labor Board Also Charged
With Intoxication.

Charged with discharging firearms
and being intoxicated, Edwin S. Gee,
former chief auditor for the War
Labor Board, was arrested last night
in the apartment of Mrs. Eveline
Niles, his divorced wife, 2416 18th
street, it is alleged, after he had
fired six shots from his revolver
Whether he was shooting wild or at
some one may be disclosed when the
case comes to trial. Because of his
nervous condition last night, Gee was
taken to Washington Asylum Hospi-
tai instead of being locked in a po-
lice cell.
Gee was arrested in Chicago more
than a month ago and returned here
to answer charges of forgery in con-
nection with alleged fraudulent money
transactions while he was in govern
ment employ, and that case was called
before United States Commissioner
Isaac r. HIT yesterday afternoon. A
hearing was waived, and Gee was
action of the grand jury.
Following the disposition of his
case, Gee appeared as a government
witness against Wilbur w. Coan, who
served as his deputy when he was in
government employ. Secret Service
Agents Matthew Griff and Miles Nc
Cahi1l also appeared as witnesses.
Coan was charged with implication in
one of the forgeries, and Commission
er Hit held him in 81, 600 security to
await grand jury action. ~ =

BUTTER AND EGG PRICES DROP
Chicago Reports Shortage of Prod

CHICAGO. January IA Storage
butter and eggs are scarce here, but
fresh offerings are to be had today
at a drop in prices from recent high
figures. according to dealers in the
products. Butter in storage is under
100000 pounds. as against usual
supply OF 100000. 1t was stated.
and eggs have fallen to $4,000 cases.
as against normal supply OF $50, 900
to 100000 cases.
'"The situation simply is that only
few have storage butter or eggs"
s. Edward Davis, president of the
Chicago butter and egg board, said.
Those who have them are saving
them for their favorite customers and
won't sell outside their own trade.
The shortage in storage butter is the
result of the government taking over
60 per cent OF the stocks for the
Army, and the storage egg situation
is much the same. Favorable weather
has resulted in a good supply of
both fresh butter and eggs. The re-
suit has been a break in prices"

First Big Step Toward Unification.

"The fourteen intercompany transfer
points established by the commissions
order issued today" said Commission
er Brownlow, "in my opinion constf-
tute the first big step toward virtual
unification of the street railway sys-
tens of the District Of Columbia.
Naturally the results, henefcial or
otherwise. of the plan will have to be
judged by actual experience The plan
is frankly experimental, and until the
companies, the commission ana the
public have had opportunity to Judge
from experience, nobody can say der
nitely what effect the Inauguration Of
free intercompany transfers will have.
ut is to be hoped the public will
view the matter in this light, and that
it will not at this time demand ex-
tensions Of the free intercompany
transfers. but will wait until It can
be seen just how the matter works
out in practical operation"
