HOPE DIES FOR RENT
BILL BEFORE I'D
House Leader .MondeII. Con.
firms Report No Chance
for Action.

Confirmation was given today by
House Leader Mondell to the report
that the rewritten Rent Commission
bill has no chance OF coming before
the House for privileged considera-
tion before Monday, May 20, when the
present rent law automatically ex-
pires.
Mr.. MondelPs attitude Is that as
far back as legislative memory goes
1t has not been the custom in the
House to grant special rules for
any committees which have a
regularly assigned day in the House.
Last Monday should have been Dis
trict day and House Leader Mondell
tried to get the District. committee
to use the day. Chairman Foeht was
absent from the city and Acting
Chairman Wheeler told Mr.. Mondell
repeatedly that he did not have any
legislation to bring up.
Both House Leader Mondel1 and
Chairman Campbell of the rules COM
mittes argue that 1t was somewhat
irregular for Representative Reed OF
West Virginia, in charge of the Rent
Commission bill, to ask the rules com :
mittee for a special rule and to en-
deavor to get recognition from the
speaker to bring up this measure
under suspension Of the rules before
the bill had been reported to the
House.

LIVELY TRAD|NG|N
T LOCAL SECURITIES
STOCK. Exchange Will Observe
Standard Time-InveStors
Buy Bank Shares.
BY !. A. FLEMING.

1t seems that there were some legal
other than simply changing. the clock.
Moreover. the opposition of west
ern members of Congress TO any sort
of recognition to the entire daylight
saving proposition blocked any action
leealizing the matter in the District.
The result is that banks will OBJ
serve their regular hours, making
changes TO suit business as necessity
demands.
Lively Trading.
Saturday is usually a dull day on
the local stock exchange. but today's
session was a decided exception.
There was a larger volume OF busi-
ness transacted than at any recent
session for a month hack and the vol
ume of business was also dlverslned-
Prices as a rule were steady. IN
some instances little higher. but
without material change.
Quite a block of National Savings
and Trust shares brought 2sa.
Lanston sold more freely at 16l2,
and the other typesetter brought Ia"
TO 1853. the latter at the close for
relatively small lots of stock.
Capital Traction shares were easier,
, opening at 9IA and closing II 81 la.
Traction bonds sold at 9Ia.. Gas 5s
were firm at a4i2.
Consolidated IS of the Potomac
Electric Company brought %. Metro
politan railroad SO were steady AT 81.
Standard Time for Exchange.
Naturally. following the action of
the Washington Clearing House, the
Washington Stock Exchange refused
to make any change in its trading
hours in line with the daylight saw
ing scheme. Sessions VIII be held
daily at l1:15 am. standard time;
12:l5 daylight saving time.
Personal Mention.
Francis NJ. Savage is making his
annual visit to Gary. Ind, TO look
after his real estate interests there.
Joshua Evans, jr., and r. V. Flem-
ing have returned from New York.
Bank stocks as Investments.
There is no question but the trend
toward investments in high grade
bank shares is again developing. The
high prices for bonds, for stocks, for
real estate. etc.-for every kind OF
an investment coupled with safety
are driving conservatives into bank
shares.
Washington bank stocks pay rea-
sonably well, are not too high. and
most certainly have not reflected the
by the more than doubling of deposits
within the last six years.
This feature of the investment neld
is also noticed elsewhere.
A study of the prices of local bank
stocks and returns might lead 10 the
nIacinE of more orders, with absolute
safety.

CENSUS IN 1922 URGED.
House Bill to Recount Population
offered by Tinkham.

A bill providing for a new census
in 1922. as recommended by the di-
rector Of the census, was introduced
today by Representative George Hol-
den Tinkham Of Massachusetts,. Mr..
Tinkham pointed out that no bill ap-
portioning representatives among
the several states since the census Of
1870 has. been passed by Congress or
will be passed until next year. 1t
would seem highly desirable under
all the circumstances that new CEN
aus should be taken to do justice to
ali Of the states in relation to federal
representation, since nearly every
one of the states was seriously af-
fected by the dislocation of popula-
tion in the early months OF 1920,
when the census was taken, he added.
The Tinkham bill provides that the
new census shall be taken fmme-
diately upon passage of this meas
ure. 1t provides, in addition to the
regular schedules, that additional
schedules will lallow the census COM
mittee, which formulates the new ap-
portionment bill, to have the best
evidence ebtainable upon which to
base enforcement Of the mandatory
fourteenth amendment to the Consti-
tuition, which directs that Congress
shall reduce representation in the
several states in proportion to the
disfranchisement that may exist in
them.

STEELS HOLD LEAD
+. |NST0CK MARKET
Squirt in Reading Helps the
Rails-SpeciaIties Make
Good Gains.
BY STUART r. WEST,

NEW YORK, May 13.-The specula-
tive market again let it's Imagination
run wild. over merger possibilities.
The fact that the street in general
was completely taken by surprise
when the Bethlehem La ackawanna
steel merger was announced made it
all the more credulous regarding
other combinations, not hitherto dis
cussed. but now put forward with
some seriousness.
Neither Lackawanna Steel nor
Bethlehem Steel stocks attracted the
attention they received on previous
days.
Rather the buying swung into
other members of the steel group
Republic. Midvale, United Alloy, Va
these, and many others entered into
the merger rumors Of the day.
Reading Goes Higher.
1t was two-thirds a steel share
market with only one-third interest
in other things.
Toward the close a diversion was
created by sharp upbidding Of Read
ing, which had in mind a possible
decision Of the Supreme Court in
the coal lands on Monday. This led
to sympathetic buying in some of the
other rails.
Maxwell Motors in the automobile
group and Transcontinental Oil in
the oil group stood out conspicu-
ously. But at no time did these ad-
vances take away from the pre-
eminence of the steel as specula-
tive leaders.
- Foreign exchange rates were gen.
orally firmer, despite the news from
Genoa The bond market was gem
orally stronger and somewhat more
active.

Taxing IS
EVIDENT ON CURB

By special Leased Wire to The Star.
NEW YORK, May 13.-There was Q
bit of irregularity on the curb. ex-
change today.
Commission houses were taking
profits after the opening transac-
tions and the professional operators
also sold part Of the lines accumulat-
ed in the late dealings on Thursday
and during the stormy periods on Fri
day 81,
The floor thought that in view Of
the advance of the past day OF SO,
and the fact that considerable part
Of the short interest had been elfmi-
mated, a technical reaction might he
expected. = =
Tobacco Products Exports was one
Of the strong features. advancing to
a new high for the movement.
Phillip Morris showed an easier
tendency during the greater part OF
the session. The newcomers. Cuban
Dominican Sugar and Daniels Motors,
encountered profit taking. The mo-
tor stocks were irregular and deal
ings were on a small scale.
Fensland and Mutual were the fea-
tures Of the oil shares. both reaching
new high records under rather ur-
gent buying. Standard Oil of Indiana
started slightly higher and, then re-
acted, and Mexican Seaboard moved
in a similar manner.
Independence Lead was an out
standing feature in the mining list,
advancing several points to a new
high record for all time.

SL0W-UP IN BUYING
STOCK WEEKS FEATURE

NEW YORK. May 13.-Further re-
sction Of prices In the stock market
this week was checked by heavy
buying of Independent or secondary
steel shares. A number of those is
sues made substantial gains follow
ing publication of the Bethlehem
Lackawanna deal.
Equipments and related stocks de-
rived more or less benefit from the
demand for steels. but the general list
showed a pronounced let-down Of
public buying and speculative buying.
The more severe reversa1s were re-
stricted to inactive specialties, for
which only thin market ,developd.
Oils, motors and investment rails made
only moderate concessions and junior
transportations held much of their
recent gain.
Technical conditions, as measured
by the long continued bull movement,
probably accounted for the markets
occasional periods Of hesitation In
dustrial developments and general
business advices were satisfactory
and crop prospects. especially in the
northwest, afforded much encourage
Went
Money rates continued to show ease
on the inflow of funds from interior
sources, call loans relaxing to q
marked extent. Firmness Of foreign
exchanges proved an Offset to any
misgivings arising from the Genoa
