BILL WOULD KEEP
APARTMENTS WARM
Landlords Who Chill Tenants
Should Be Fined, Says
Sherman.

Landlords in Washington who fail to
keep apartments and rooms properly
heated, when they rent them with the
understanding that they are to be heat
ed. will be punished by heavy fines if
bill introduced today by Senator Sher-
man. chairman of the Senate District
committee, should become law.
II am told that some of the land
lords are freezing their tenants out
here, said Senator Sherman today
The tenants are forced to wear their
overcoatS and overshoes in their apart
ments and rooms 1t is time something
was done to put stop to such prac-
tices. out in Chicago landlords who
fail to live up to their agreements to
furnish heat are fined, and they ought
to be fined here.
Under the bill introduced. landlord
who did not keep the apartments
properly heated would be subject to
fines of not less than S25 nor more
than $1,000. Each day that the apart
ments were not heated would be con-
sldered separate offerse. Tenants
who have complaints to make with
regard to the heating would file them
with the district attorneys office and
the cases would be tried in the courts
Senator Sherman said that he ex-
pected to call his committee together
this week to take up the nomination
of DIR. John Van Schaick, jr., to be
District Commissioner. and the nomi-
nations of James +. oyster. A. Left
wich Sinclair and Guy Mason to be
members of the District rent com
mission.
Hopes Ball Law Will Get Test.
He expressed the hope that the
landlords of Washington would not
attempt to have the Ball law, under
which the rent commission has been
appointed, declared unconstitutional
If the law is given chance 1
believe that it will prove beneficial"
said Senator Sherman. But if the
property owners seek to ham string
it. then let them beware. Congress
has full control of the District, and
it is determined that profiteering in
rents here shall cease. l predict that
law will be enacted placing an oc-
cupational tax, and property taxes,
on property owners and landlords
that will soon bring them to their
senses, if they persist in their efforts
to avoid proper regulation"
Senator Sherman said he preferred
to make no comment upon the rent
commission as appointed by the
President at this time. 1t is likely.
he said, that the full committee may
handle these nominations. and also
the nomination of DR.. Van Schaick.
Open hearings may be given.

League Delegates
 Accept Limitation
 Of Armament Plan
Republican A. p. Leased WIreI


 GENEVA, Dec. 14-The limitation of armaments by the powers for the next two years by agreement among them was acted upon favorably today by the assembly of the league of nations. The matter came up in the form of a re- port of the disarmament commission, the liitation clause in which was amended to merely a recommendation before the report was adopted.
 With respect to the limitation clause Leon Bourgeois made the reservation that France was obliged to restore her armaments that had been worn out by the war The Belgian and Spanish delegations at the afternoon session made similar reservation regarding the limitation of their armaments during the next two years.
 Notwithstanding the reservations France, together with Brazil, Chile Greece, Poland, Rumania and Uruguay voted against the limitation clause
 H. Brantigan, Sweden, pointed out that the reservations did not change the situation, since a resolution on that subject was only and could only be a recommendation by the delegates voting therefor. who are not under stood as committing their governments.
 The important subject of an inter- national credits organization came be- fore the league council, which has approved the plan of the Brussels fi- nancial conference Two proposals dealing with the plan were adopted by the council, one relating to the creation of a committee to deal with credits for raw material and unfin- ished products and the other provid- | ing fo ran international commission to examine the securities offered

Intrastate Rail
 Increases Up To
 High Commission
Republican A. p. Leased WIrel

WASHINGTON, Dee. 14-Counsei for seven state utilities commissions which have refused to raise intrastate rates to level with those recently put into effect in interstate traffic told the interstate commerce commission today that the commissions had been guided in their decisions solely by the trans portation act guarantee of a six per cent return to the carriers. The com mission today completed the cases Of Illinois and Florida and started on the Nebraska case
 Railroad representatives called the attention of the commission to the geographical location of the states re- fusing to raise, declaring that con- tinuance of the present situation would result in adjoining states adopting the same attitude in order to compete with neighboring states. S. H. Cowan, counsel for cattle raisers of the southwest, declared that the cattle raisers and farmers of the west could not, with profit, ship their products to market because of the in terstate rate increase. and argued against any raise in intrastate rates. He said that in the west quanti~ies of farm products were going to waste because of high freight tariffs.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 14.-The bin of the senate agricultural committee directing revival of the war finance corporation and favoring the extension of more liberal credits by the federal reserve system as a measure of relief for the farmers was referred to the banking and currency committee upon it's arrival in the house today after its passage yesterday by the senate.
 The committee immediately began hearings, at which it was said repre- sentation of the wool growers ap- peared in support of the bill. At least $200 100000 the committee was told, should be made available for relief of farmers, live stock growers and busi- ness interests. The senate also con tinued it's consideration of the farmer relief problem in a discussion of the Capper- -Hershman bill, which was passed by the house last May. to au- thoriZe cooperative marketing by the agricultural associations under regu- lation of the federal trade commission.
 Senator King of Utah, Democrat, attacked the bill on the ground that it would exempt farmers organizations from the Sherman law. The bill was supported by Senator McCumber of North Dakota, Republican.
