profit by the housing situation in
Washington. They said that the

RENT LAW MAY
LAST z YEARS
Senator Ball viii Ask Congress
To Extend Life of
Measure.

Senator Ball, chairman Of the
Senate District Committee, plans to
ask Congress to prolong the life OF
the District Rent Commission act
for 4 period not exceeding two
years.
The action Of the Supreme Court
yesterday in declaring the rent law
constitutional has encouraged the
author Of the act to believe that it
should b. operative for some time
after next October, when it auto
matically expires.
THINKS TENANTS NEED LAW.
The emergency which existed when
the law was passed is just as sharp
Ball believes. He thinks that the
tenants of the city should be given
assurance that rents will not be
doubled and tribled next October.
which in his view would certainly be
the case IL the rent act were per-
mitted to expire at that time.
Plans for the amendment Of the
Ball act SO as to continue 1t in
force have not yet been developed.
but probably will be in the near
future.
1t is understood that Commissioner
Oyster, supported by members of the
rent commission, and many other citi-
zens will formally ask Congress for
a continuance of the law.
PLEASED WITH DECISION.
All the members Of the District sub
committee which investigated rent
profiteering in the fall of 1919 are de-
lighted with the Supreme Court de-
cision and regard 1t as a vindication of
the policy which they pursued at that
time. Senator Capper is particularly
pleased with the turn that events
have taken. He strongly favcrs Com
missioner Oysters Recommendation
that all violators of the law be
prosecuted.
"The Supreme Court decision is a
great victory" said Senator Capper
today. "It's effect will be far reach
ing not only in Washington, but
throughout the country"
SENTIMENT AGAINST 1T.
The sentiment to continue the rent
law after next October however, is not
all in favor Of the proposition. Some
think that the exigency for the law
has passed while others think that be-
fore anything is done a resurvey of
the housing situation in Washington
should be made.
According to julius /. Peyser. who
during the war was in charge of the
housing situation for the War Depart
ment, the situation has somewhat
solved itself and there Is not as much
need for the rent law as there was
two years ago when the city was
crowded.

NEW OIL NOTE
NTENCLAND
Hughes Protests M.P.'s Criticism
of U. S. Action on Costa
RIGA Concession.
BY HARRY L. ROGERS.
international NeVvs Service.

International News Service.
The United States has sent a note
to Great Britain dealing with the SO.
called Amory oil concession in Costs
Rica and the alleged criticism by
British officials Of the action of this
Government in refusing to support
the concession, it was learned today,
PROMPTED BY M. P.'s SPEECH.
The note was dispatched by Secre-
tary of State Hughes on April Is. be-
ing forwarded through the American
embassy at London.
The communication was in the ma
ture OF a protest, having been prompt
ed by the speech Of a British official
in the House Of Commons on March
1. during the course of which It was
intimated that the American Govern
ment, through its consult at San Jose.
Costa Rica, had endeavorcd improp-
erly to procure the annulment of the
concession OF an oil company in which
British capital was interested.
Similar charges, the communication
pointed out. had been made on Other
occasions, and the matter had even
been referred to in a formal note.
The Tinocco government, Secretary
Hughes pointed out, was revolution
airy in character, was never recor-
nized by either Great Britain or The
United States, and passed out OF ex
istence September 2, 1913.
IN LINE WITH Policy,
The action Of the American consul
at San Jose. the note continued, was
not authorized by the American Gov
ernment. though 1t was In line with
the general policy of the United States
in refusing to recognize the conces'
sions of a usurping revolutionary gov
ernment.
"Nevertheless.- the note states ait
is difficult to perceive how any such
action during the period prior to an
nulment of the concession would fur
nish necessarily an occasion for JUS
tihable criticism on the part OF his
majesty's government"
The Amory Company was an Amer
lean corporation. though 1t subse-
quently developed that British sub
Jects owned much of its stock. From
the revolutionary leader, Tinocco. II
secured large concessions of poten-
tial oil lands in Costa Rics. The
United States Government had re-
fused diplomatic support to American
citizens seeking concessions from
Tinocco. and 1t never supported the
claims of the Amory Company.
ENGLIsHMEN INTERESTED.
Approximately a year after the fall
Of the Tinocco government the new
Costa Rican regime Cancelled the
Amory concession. Under date OF Au-
gust ~, 1920, just one day after the
Amory concessions were cancelled, the
British government notified the
United States that British subjects
were interested in the Amory Com
pany, this being, as the American
note points out, the first intimation
that the interests of British subjects
were involved.
