An enormous payment of rent
throughout the United States for va
rious buildings in which government
offices are located is expected to be
revealed by a compilation now being
made by the bureau of efficiency for
the joint congressional commissio
on the reorganization of the govern
ment departments.
Officials would not hazard guess
today as to the total of Uncle Sam S

believe that the total amount will
be "appalling."
A QUESTIONABLE has been sent out
to all the government departments.

state, and the informa ton has been
returned.
In New York city alone, it is de-
clared, the government has an annual
rental bill of approximately $1,000
900 whereas by buying the proper
ties it Is believed that great saw
ing could be effected.
1t Is likely that meeting of the
reorganization committee will be
called soon by Chairman Walter F.
Brown. who returned yesterday from

Senator Smoot and Representative
Reavis. the last two of which are

turn to Washington. it is hoped to get

Congressional Investigation of the
American Legfon's organization and
alleged "scandalous and disgraceful
conduct of small coterie of self

ficials." was asked III a petition pre-
sented today to Vice President Cool

the Private Soldiers and Sailors Le-
gion.
Charges Financial Backing. +,
Charges that a small eoterfe of men
furnished financial backing for the
legion, and that it's officers are work
ing in their interests and for their
own personal benefit were made in
the petition. "a
The legion officers. the petition said.
had "wrongfuly assumed to repre-
sent" all former service men. The
leaders, the petition continued, were
"overbearing ard insolent" in their
assumptions. t. ti
That the legion plan was conceived
in France by "a group of silk k-stockinged
officers" was asserted in the petition.
Soon after, 1t continued, "a commit
tee of hand-picked. self-constituted
former officers" opened New York Of
fees and secured some hundreds OF
persons. it was declared Officers, del
egates and successors. it was charged,

perpetuating basis"
Claims Misrepresentation.
I'VE charge" the petition said, that
the organizers and present officers of
the American Legion, organized it
with tainted money for the purpose
of giving the men who placed them
selves in it's control an opportunity
of misrepresenting the wishes and
desires of former service men, who
furnished the money. and who are
the real power behind the legion"
The officers, the charges continued
are paying out vast sums of money
for the benefit '.of the hidden group
of men who furnished the secret funds
for it's organization"
That no financial accounts had been
filed with the government, as required
under the legion's federal charter. was

brought up by Representative
posed that both single and married
men whose net income was below
$4,000, be granted an additional ex-
emption of $500 year. or else the
rate on their incomes be lowered
from to 3 per cent.
This proposal was voted down, but
tentative agreement was reached to
increase the exemption of heads of
families to $4,000. This action was
reconsidered later. however, and the
exemption for dependents was dou-
bled.
Tax Proposals Attacked.
Representative Garner of Texas. the
ranking democrat on the ways and
means committee, issued a statement
yesterday attacking the tax revision
proposals as agreed upon at the
White House meeting Tuesday night.
Most of the taxes the republicans
propose to repeal are the rich mans
taxes" he said. Il favor repeal of
all of the miscellaneous war taxes,
but probably would continue the eS-
cess profits tax for this calendar year
and possibly for next year. to take
care of the war aftermath emer-
gencies, which are not permanent
charge against the government
my idea of a permanent peace tax
policy would be:
Material increases in the inheri-
tance taxes; continuation of the in
come taxes, with probably increases
in the income tax on corporations
and increased tobacco taxes. These,
with customssreceipts, post Office re-
ceipts. miscellaneous revenues, such
as Panama canal tolls, sale of public
lands and the like, would meet all
of the peace-time needs of the gov
ernment Present emergencies grow
ing out of the war could be taken
care of through the salvage of war
materials and increased collections
of back taxes, together with the ex-
cess profits taxes.
The republicans have said they
were preparing a permanent peace
taxation policy. Their program, as
outlined, includes many special war
taxes, a policy which. l believe, not
only is unsound economically, but
absolutely indefensible."

ENGLISH TAX HURTS
JAMAICA RUM TRADE

BY Gable to The Star and Chicago Daily News.
Copyright. 1921.
KINGSTON, Jamaica, August IL
The Jamaica rum trade is in a crucial
position on account of the English
import duty of more than 500 pounds
(normally $2,500) per puncheon
(seventy gallons). There is a record
accumulation of stocks and, in view
of the fact that CONSUMPTION Is de-
clining, the rum trade will be killed
unless the duty imposed by England
is substantially reduced. England
has reduced the duty imposed on
cigars and French wines during the
war and now the Jamaica Imperial
Association is urging London and the
local government to secure a con-
siderable reduction in the duty on
rum.
News has been received here that
the American government proposes
TO tax Jamaica bananas cents per
stem or bunch and cocoanuts SO cents
a bag. The planters are alarmed. be-
lieving that the tax will cripple the
trade in these products and especially
that in cocoanuts.

SIGNS POWER-RATE CUT.
Justice Siddons Approves Action of
Utilities Commission.

~ Justice Siddons of the District su-
preme Court today signed an order
approving the recent action Of the
Public Utilities Commission reducing
by per cent the price Of electricity
to be charged by the Potomac Elec-
trio Power. Company. Corporation
Counsel Stephens and counsel for the
company agreed on the order.
When Justice Gould. in August, 1917,
granted an injunction asked by the
company against the Public Utilities
Commission, forbidding the reduction
in the price of power to cents. he
required. the company to 1mpound 3
cents Of the 10 cents permitted to be
collected pending the result of sthe
litigation. Last March, when the Pub
lie Utilities Commission Increased the
price to 81k cents the Injunction
order was modified so that the COM
pany could spend 81 cents Of each
dime received and was only to hold
in reserve IN cents.
The effect Of today's action Is to re-
store the terms of the original order
in this regard.

,Reports of a weak trestle on the
Chesapeake Beach railroad caused q
near panic ON tie Kallipois irotto
, excursion yesterday morning on the
way to the beach, according to Henry
J. Gompers, chairman of the commit
tee in charge. The train, scheduled
to start at 10 o'clock, was delayed at
the junction for more than half an
Hour, and the scores OF excursi onlsts
began to hear the report Of a shaky
trestle eight miles from the junction,
Mr.. GomperS said.
When the train reached that trestle
it stopped. Through the crowd, In
which were many women ana chii-
panic seemed imminent when 1t was
said that an attempt would be made
to cross the trestle. At this juncture,
Chairman Gompers said today, he re-
quested the train crew not to let the
train pass until the trestle had been
hOlStered up.
Crowd In Assured.
Meanwhile, Raymond Robinson and
William Jacobs, members of the COM
mittee. were passing through the
train attempting to pacify the women
and children by telling them that no
attempt would be made to cross
dangerous bridge.
Finally, repairs being completed. the
train got underway. arriving approxl-
mately two and a half hours late at
the beach. New problems there con-
fronted those in charge of the out.
ing. 1t had been planned to hold
a parade on the boardwalk: Ghis was
not allowed, on account of the strain
which. would be put upon the tim
bers supporting the walk. fancv
dancing exhibition in the pavilion
also was not allowed.
Presidents Statement.
Nothing to it," was the manner IN
which President Jones of the railroad
summed up the reports. There was
a delay, and it was the first we nave
had this season. The trestle simply
men at work on it. All railroads are
like that. The trestle was not at all
in a perilous condition. AS for pa :
rade on the boardwalk. we do not al
low such a thing. Even troops have
to break step when crossing strone
iron bridges. The strain OF parade
on the boardwalk is what we desire
to prevent In the pavilion we do not
allow performances outside OF our
regular dances"
The parade was held on a clnder

was won by the married men OF the

The Maryland public service COM

today at the Interstate Commerce

made.
