 C0MPLAIN|NC
High Living Costs and Gen erA Extortion Is Caus-
 ing Investigation.

PARIS. July 5.-The effect of
 the highscest of living in Paris upon
 tourist trade, as indicated by the
 growing frequency or complaints of
 extorton by Americans visiting
 France, is occupying the attention
 Of the government The authorities
 hold that the tourists have the cure
 largely in their own hands; exag-
 gerated prices being due in large
 part to indiscriminate spending by
 visitors, aided by the spendthrift tendency of French profiteers.
 It is admitted that abuses prac- ticed in amusement resorts, where
 meals, wine and dancing are pro-
 vided, have their effect upon prices
 in general but how to correct that evil without discouraging the most
 progtable trade is a question.
 ; Under Secretary of State Paisant discussing the, question with AmsH
 cans. proposes publicity as rem edy. He has invited American wis, itors to- join in a protest which Will be published in the Paris press am ne also VIII take up personally individual cases of extortion brought to his attention.
 The most frequent causes of com plaint are charges for lodging in hotels and apartments MT. Paisant pld the Americans he had decided to ask hotels to publish their rates in the papers. This remedy would not. however, affect apartments. which are the subject of. .profiteering on scale hitherto unknown.
 There are very few unfurnished apartments to let, according to the real estate agencies: as fast as va cated by tenants they are trans formed into furnished aparaments and either let at rentals of from 300 to 1,000 per cent higher than theayerage before the war for furn- ished aparements of the same class. or rented at an increase of. 200 to. 800 per ceH. above the average for 1nfurnished apartments. with the proyiso that the tenant buy theI| furniture at excessive figures.

Franklin Square Hotel. at Four
teenth and X streets northwest. who
was sued by Philip NJ. Julien. archi-
tect. for sS.7l2.27 in connection with
remodeling the building, yesterday

pancy by October l. 1919. and set
aside $4,000 for the renovation.
with instructions to the architect
to keep within that amount; also
that the hotel was not ready until
January, 1920. and he lost money
thereby during the most profitable
months of the year. He also claims
the architect spent three times the
amount originally specified. For
this he claims he should be entitled
to $4,000 damages

Members Of the District Rent

Many landlords are facing a Jail

member of the board, declared yes
terday. A policy and plan OF prose-
cution Is being considered. Al
though more than 5000 decisions
are said to. have been disregarded
since June, II is not believed this
number of landlords are subject to
prosecution, many OF the cases be-
ing under the same owner.
Likewise, thousands of tenants,
who were charged rates asked by
landlords greater than those or
dered by the Rent Commission and
who appealed to the District Mu-
nicipal Court, are now in a posi-
ton to obtain refunds for the diff
ference.
II landlords fail to abide by the
decision of the commission and
charge excessive rent as decided by
the commission. the commission Is
authorized to begin action In the
Municipal Court to recover double
the amount of such excuses, to-
gether with the cost of proceedings.
with the power of the Ball rent
act returned the Rent Commission
offices yesterday were flooded by
stream OF tenants seeking relief.
An increase of more than 800 per
cent in new claims was recorded,
while many old cases were renewed.
The commission has already rem
dered decisions in more than 5000
cases.
The policy of the commission will
be along the same lines as in the
past" Sinclair said yesterday.

licenses and are required to supply
the District Commissioners a $i0,-
900 surety bond by the terms of q

In many respects II is the most
drastic Measure of the kind ever
proposed in Congress. A record must
be kept Of every article received,
and the rates of interest are re-
stricted to per cent quarterly on
sums of $35 or less, and 2 per cent
quarterly on larger sums. 1885,.
No sale OF pawned property will

Palmer Decision Declares
Beer Is Beer, Not
Medicine.

Liquor as o beverage cannot be
brought back under the ptetense of
using II for a medicine. said Will
lam Jennings Bryan in referring to
former Attorney General Palmer's
ruling permitting beer by prescrip-
tion, in an address last night before
the mems club at Mt. Pleasant Con-
gregational Church.
"I need hardly comment upon the
Palmer ruling" said Bryan.
Whether II correctly interprets the
law or not Is less important than
the question whether II will be cor
rected. / have no doubt that the
evil influence exerted by this order
will be short-liyed. knowing the
Prohibition sentiment in the coun-
try. we can assume that the order
will be rescinded by the new Attor-
ney General. or that 1t will be over
come by act of Congress.
IF enforcement of prohibition is
to be a serious matter, and not
farce, we must recognize common
sense in the appointment OF prohi-
bition oficers." Bryan continued.
we cannot afford to select as a
prosecutor a man who drinks. His
throat will be pulling against his
conscience all the time; his appe-
tite will be carrying on a joiut de-
bate with his oath Of Office"
Turning to international affairs,
Bryan said: War is a foe OF en-
during government. The world Is
war weary. Enough blood has been
spilled to atone for all wrong
Christ commands US to love our
enemies Helpfulness and love are
the basis of his creed. Love converts
enemies into friends. The world is
making progress toward standards
Of Christ. and war will be succeeded
by courts of arbitration and tri-
bunals for investigation. Our ma
ton should lead in the crusade for
disarmament. We cannot prevent
war by getting ready for it,"
