CORNER RENT
HOG LANDLORD

NEW YORK.--In order to keep a
roof over their heads tenents have
been forced to send their children hun
CRY to school and deny themselves act
ual necessities of life, says a state
ment issued by Capt. H. A. Ely of the
Federation of Tenents' Association of
Greater New York.
Little children have died of MANU-
triton and parents have committed
suicide from hopeless despair because
our legislators of both political parties
have neglected to give them relief.
"For more than three years." he
says Clements have been fighting des-
perately to protect their homes from
the greed of the real estate trust and
the renthog land lord. This combina-
ton controls both the republican and
the democratic parties and their lead
ers. The emergency rent laws now on
the statute books were placed there
because tenents had united and show
ed formidable strength and not be-
cause of any desire on the part of eth
er party to relieve the distressed peo-
pies.
"The Federation of Tenents' Assns.
now numbering AZ organizations, holds
the balance of voting power in both
political parties and proposes to use
it pitilessly to obtain justice and
equity for its members"
Complaints of alleged rent prof.
teering have been coming in at the
rate of 200 or more a day, according
to Miss Lille Grant, chairman, May
or's Committee on Rent Profiteering.
The increases, she says, run anywhere
from 81 to $40 for apartments occu-
pied by families with moderate in
! comes.
The rent situation in New York is
rendered more critical by the question
whether landlords will succeed in for
cling tenents to pay higher taxes which
will result from theincrese' of over 81,

DIRECT ACTION BY
GERMAN MOTHERS
TAKE FOOD FOR CHILDREN BY
FORCE OF NUMBERS-OFFIC-
Frs ARE HELPLESS.
Rv LOUIS P. LOCHNER

Federated Press Staff Correspondent
Berlin.-Housewives of Berlin are
resorting to direct action to obtain
their supply of potatoes. Out IN the
suburb of Neukolln, which the mid
die class and workers section, there
are certain large tracts of land on
which some wealthy owner has planted
row upon row of potatoes.
In the stores Of NeukOlln, you can
not buy potatoes for love or money.
In the shops of most of Berlin, pota-
toes are a rarity. On market days
YOU can see long lines of people stand
ing in line, patiently waiting for their
turn to buy few potatoes. The po-
tatO is one of the chief articles OF
food in Germany.
Here, then, were the two facts: A
lot of potatoes on the NeukOlln farm
land, and no potatoes to be had IN
Neukolln! The women got their heads
! together, whispering and buzZlng
among themselves now here, now
! there, until suddenly one day thOus-
ands of men, women and children were
on their way, some on foot, some by
tramway, to the potato fields. They
swarmed over the large estates given
over to potato culture, and simply
! helped themselves to the precious veg
etables. They filled their sacks, wallis
es, "rucksacks", or mere sheets tied
at the four corners, hOisted them on
their backs and trudged home again.
A lone police lieutenant was sum-
moned to put stop to the nuisance.
He arrived, and, seeing himself con-
fronted by thousands of determined
housewives, thought it wisest to stanC
by idly and let matters take theil
course.
The whole thing had semi-tragit
yet also a semi-comic aspect. But
as a symptom of the condition to which
! law-abiding Germany has been re
duced, it speaks volumes.
