RENT LAW MAY COVER

In drafting a bill for the extern
sion Of the District rent act the
Senate, District subcommittee has in
mind q return to that provision of
the original law which put the rem
tai Of business as well as residen-
tiaI properties under the supervision
Of the rent commission.
When Congress. last year, passed
. law extending the life Of the rent
act into May OF this year 1t struck
out the provisions dealing with busi-
ness properties. The subcommittee
has recently had called to its at.
tention cases where very large adj
1vances In rent for business properties
have been demanded.
In one case a small, store in the
northwest, which rented In 1914 for
5000 q month and in 1920 was t75.
Is now. to be rented for $3.50 a month.
according to the demand made by the
owner on the tenant.
In another case It 10 proposed BY
the owner to increase the rent of a
business property from SITS q month
to $500 month.
Such cases., the subcommittee be-

Desertion Grows.
One problem which 10 causing per-
haps more anxiety than any other in
the sixth district is the question Of
dsssrtion and non-support. In twen-
ty-one out of the 1oe families under
care this problem was present.
An effort has bssn made to analyss
the cause for this large figure for
desertion. It does not seem. said Mias
Hough. to be attributable to the un.
employment situation. althoueh this
is. of course. acute. One great cause
Of this non-support problem At the
present time Is undoubtedly the Diff

KELLER WOULDA
TO BUILDING RULES
Writes He'd Require Proof of
Stability and Sufficiency
= of Desiqns. =

Senator capper Of Kansas. chairman
OF the Senate committee to investi-
gate the knickerbocker Theater
aisaster has asked Col. Keller.
trict for suggestions regarding legis-
lation to better protect the public
and to provide for the erection OF
stable buildings in the District.
In letter received by Senator
capper from Col Keller. the latter
Gays that he has given this question
a great deal Of thought since the
knickerbocker Thester wreck, but
that he Is not yet ready to make his
recommendations. He says. however:
Up TO the present time my owt
opinion is that the beet way to protect
the public will be TO require the owner
and his representatives-the architect
and the engineers-to prove affirmative
ly that their plans are correctly made.
not only so far as concerns conformity
with our building code. but also so far
az concerns permanency. stability and
sufficiency OF the details of design. Hav-
ing put builders on notice that this re-
auirement is to be made, they will quick
ly understand the necessity Of employ
ing competent practitioners and thereby
avoiding the needless expense and delay
that would be caused were improper
plans presented and subsequently re-
jeeted by our building Inspector.
''On the other hand. to enable the
Office Of the building inspector to
pronounce authoritatively upon plans
requires that it be strengthened by
the employment of sufficient num-
Der of men having the right kind of
qualifications. We are formulating
our ideas on this subject now. but
in a general way it means that we
must have more men In the office and
more men in the field and that the
additions to our force must be fully
qualified technicians with adequate
experience in the design and con-
Structfon of important buildings.
Professionally. my idea Is that we
ought to have two such men In our
office in addition to our present force.
and two who would be available for
constant field work-checking. veri-
flying and inspecting details of con-
struction of the more important
classes of buildings.
Licensing engineers and archi-
tects would afford come additional
safeguard to the public, but few, OF
course. know that the proposal to
license engineers and architects has
been q disputed question in many 10
calities for quite a long time, If
such a situation is to develop here
/ am quite clear that the licensing
agency should be divorced complete
ly from the Office Of the building In
spector so that no question Of preju-
dice or partiality may arise In con-
nection with the work Of the Off
cials Of the District government"

Of the past few days have not placed
Ulster in q favorable frame of mind to

to arbitration. and it is not considered

that end for the present.
British officials Indicated today that
they deplored the declaration Of
Michael Collins. head OF the pro-
visional government In ireland, that
the kidnapings Of Ulster Unionists
were what he had feared, and what
