most desirable and luxurious apart
ments in the city.
Mr.. Humphrey told the committee
that the basic purpose of the rent
| law is to provide necessary living ac-
commodations at reasonable price
, for those who are compelled to live
| in Washington city in order that the
! work of the government may be
properly performed. But the Rent
Commission did not reduce rents on
fsmall apartments where it was case
of necessity or comfort, but on large
apartments. which were maintained
not for necessity or comfort. but in
many instances as luxury. Necessity
was punished and luxury rewarded in
the fixing Of rents by the commission.
| Scores Boards Action.
'In this voluntary adjustment of
rents the commission gave the great
est reduction on the most desirable
and most luxurious apartments" Mr..
Humphrey said.
| When a senator occupies an apart
ment identical with less prominent
! tenants, gross discrimination was
shown the senator. in several in
stances. he stated Illustrating this,
he mentioned particularly Senator
| Walsh Of Montana, and Senator Gull
berson, paying $50 a month for each
Of four apartme nts. while other ten
ants. he said. pay $50. for a similar
| apartment. and Senator Gooding pay
| ing $25 for each of two apartments,
! while other tenants. he said. pay $40
/ for q similar apartment.
Mr.. Humphrey said he appeared be-
fore the committee particularly to
point out that the present rent Com
missioners are utterly unfit for the
position they hold. If there is to be
rent commission. he said, the COM
nissioners should assess rents that
will be of benefit to the tenant and
do justice to the owner and not fix
| with influential parties to continue
their own jobs.
Purposes OF Act Defeated.
Mr.. Humphrey called the attention
Of the committee to the fact that be-
cause the senators and othes hire
! three or four apartments with four
or FIVE bathrooms, that they may live
in luxury, really operates against the
purposes of the Ball rent act. be-
cause If the apartments were rented

WEBSTER LOST THE
GAME TO LAKE WEIR

Weirsdale, July 3-zFollowing is the
score of game played at Weirsdale
between Lake Weir and Webster, Fri
day, June 80.
Lake Weir was an easy winner, de-
feating Webster to the tune of 10 to 2.
Smith who twirled for Lake Weir had
the visitors at his mercy throughout
the game, striking out fourteen of the
opposing batsmen, issued one pass and
up TO the eighth inning held the Sum
ter boys hitless, in which inning they
made four hits which counted for two
runs. The Lake Weir boys tapped
nayis for ten ATS, four of these be-
ing 70 rextra bases, Fort and Fallow
each getting three, while Smith help
ed his own game with two. The game
was featured by the errorless playing
OF Lake Weir and the heavy hitting.
Webster made only one extra base hit,
this by Davis in the eighth, which
materially aided in the scoring of
Webster. The score: r II E

ENGAGE SERVICES
OF AN ENGINEER
1t is the Duty of the County Commits
si0ners to Take This Most Inn
pOrtant Step In the Interest of
Progress and Economy

At this their July meeting it is the
duty of the county commissioners to
make up their budget for the next
twelve months.
1t is also their duty to set aside the
present archaic, inefficient and expens-
i've road-boss system and engage the
services of an engineer to direct road
work all over the county.
By doing this, they viii save the
people money and ensure their having
uptodate and lasting roads to travel
over.
The state road department has offer
ed to pay half the salary of good
man if the county will pay the other
half. A good man is to be had. If
the commissioners do not engage him
or some other good man, they viii be
derelict in their duty to the public.
This year and the next will be cru
cial years in the road history of Mar
ion county. We are planning roads
over which in all probability people
will travel as Ion gas our civilization
endures. The commissioners should
realize their responsibility and meet
it. If they do not, they will signally
fail in their duty.

OF THE
FOREIGN BORN

Washington, July 1.-THE depart
'ment of commerce announces that, ac-
cording to the census of 1920, the
total foreign white stock in the United
States on January of that year was
sc, 1896, ,958. By foreign white stock"
is meant the total foreign-born white
population plus the native white papu-
lation having one Or both parents for
eign born. The corresponding total
for 1910 was 32,243,382. The increase
Eof the foreign white stock between
1910 and 1920 was, therefore, 4,155,-
576, or 1923 per cent.
The total for 1920 includes 1872
754 who were foreign born and came
to this country as immigrants, and
%, $50, ,204 who were born in this eoun-
try but whose parents, one OR both,
were immigrants.
The classification of the foreign
white stock by country of origin is
based upon the pre-war map of Eu-
rope, partly because of the difficulty
of adjusting the returns in regard to
the birthplace of parents so as to
agree with the changed boundaries OF
European countries and partly in or
der that comparisons might be made
. with the figures of the previous cen
sus, taken in 1910. The names of the
several countries, therefore, Germany,
Russia, Austria, ETC., inaicate the ter
ritory embraced within these coun-
tries before the European war. The
total foreign white stock from each
of the principal countries of origin
was as follows: Germany, 7,z59, ,997;
ireland, 4,136.395; Russia, 1871, ,123;
Italy. ass3e,945; Austria, 3,129,7s6;
ICanada, 2,603, 1928; England, 2.307,-
liz; Sweden, 1,A57,5s2; Hungary, l.
I110,S95; Normal, 1,002,225.
Of the 7,259, 1897 persons of foreign
stock whose country of origin was
Germany, 1,915,867 were immigrants
whose fathers were born in prewa1
lGermany and 5,344,130 were natives
