Reciprocity Under Proposed
Measures Scored by Execu-
tive Committee.

Better no automobile reciprocity be-
tween the District of Columbia and
Maryland at all than under the terms
of the two pending bills or the Ball
substitute, because they do not provide
that the funds collected shall be used
for street improvement on the basis of
5O-40, was the stand taken by the ex-
ecutive committee of the Washinston
Board Of Trade this afternoon.
1t was the contention of the COM
mittee that the passage of any such
an entering wedge for the destruction
OF the 60-40 fiscal relationship be-
tween the District of Columbia and
the FEDERAL government.
The committee in a formal reso-
luton announced its opposition to the
pending measures. and particularly
on the substitute proposed by Sem
ator Ball said that it would prefer
to have no reciprocity rather than
this substitute, because it is an in
fringement upon the principle of
fixed proportional contribution be-
tween the federal and District gov
ernmentS.
The delegates Of the Board of
Trade on the joint citizens commit
tee having this legislation in charge
were instructed to present this stand
to the joint committee and to empha-
size it as the stand of the Board of

PROFITS IN RADIO
Berry Says Broadcasting
Now Is Public Service, But
Will Pay Well in Time.

Radio is destined to become a reg
ular part of the business Of wire
telephony, officials of the Chesapeake
and Potomac Telephone Company told
the Public Utilities Commission at
the rate hearing at the District build
ing today.
The testimony developed that the
company has spent s66.22s.s5 in cap
ital expenditures to establish its
broadcasting station, and that the
cost Of operating. the, station last year
was ss3. .s52
Would you care to state why the
company has gone In for this with
apparently no return derived from
it?" Engineer Commissioner Bell
asked the company.
D. A. De Vane, an attorney for the
company, made the following answer:
I'VE are in it because we believe IL
is an undeveloped field of telephony,
and that we should keep up in the
art of radio just as we do in the art
of telephony. We are in 1t because
we believe it Is necessary. There may
be a time, and I personally believe
there will, when wireless telephony
will be a regular adjunct Of wire
telephony"
Az Business Venture.
Maj. Bell then inquired If the COM
pany was not looking at radio as a
possible good business venture rather
than something merely for the pub
lie good.
Answering this question, A. E.
Berry. president of the company,
pointed out that there are many i'm
portant events taking place in Wash
ington that are of nationwide in
terest and which should be broad
cast for that reason. He said that If
the telephone company did not per-
form this service It probably would
not be done. He cited the action of
the telephone company in making 1t
possible for several hundred thou
sands of people to hear the inaugural
address of the late President Harding
on the Capitol steps by means of the
loud speaker.
Could Make Money.
Mr. Berry said that radio. broad
casting undoubtedly would become a
profitable venture for the telephone
company and added that the company
could make it so now if they were
willing to rent their studio for ad-
vertising purposes.
I'VE are not so sure yet whether
that is a wise thing to do" said Mr.
Berry, land for that reason we are
irving to keep away from it,"
The hearing. today was called on

LONDON, February 25.-A thorough

Great Britain and France with the
idea of eventually suggesting radical

to frame a plan which will require no

The secret of the conclusions

exception of the few fundamental
points already revealed. is still being

hazarded are declared by members of
the committee to be well beyond the

the amount of German capital abroad.
One of the greatest surprises the
experts met with in Germany, 1t is
understood on the best authority, was
the amount of foreign money inside

BERLIN, February 25.-The
French intention to raise a loan
for their share of German repara-
tions which is to be allowed to re-
main In Germany Is causing fear
among the British that Americans
will follow the example and thus
secure control over German repa-
rations and consequently German
industry.
The British believe the Ameri-
cans would control the reparations
pool and consequently form an al
lance with German industry. 1t is
considered that a combination of
American methods and German
patience and energy would prove
an irrisistable Industrial combine.
Hence John Bradbury has sent a
telegramto Berlin protesting
against the reparations pool plan
and declaring himself favorable
for taking certain specific Ger
man revenues only for reparations.

High Rents Demanded
OF the Working Glass

Landlords demand such high
rents in working class districts that
there is little money left to buy
anything else" says Frank Rosen-
blum, organization department, Am
algamated Clothing Workers. "The
workers are unable to spend any,
thing on clothing. This is particu-
larly true of workers on part time.
Their rents do noe go down with
slack work and they have to econ
omize on clothes.
"Our unemployment statistics in
the garment trades bear this out.
There is so little demand for GER
tain grades of clothing that our
union suffers from unemployment as
high as 715 to 10 per cent in what
should be a busy season. The high
grade clothing is holding up well,
showing that the prosperous middle
and upper classes are not affected.
Eut the lower grades of suits and
overcoats of which huge quantities
are usually made at this time are
in little demand. The workers have
no money to buy them after they
have settled with their landlords"

on the heads Of those who now stand
for progress in the labor movement.
He went so far as to defend Tom
Lewis, now a mine owner, declaring
that capitalist fiunkey's integrity was
assailed when he was president Of the
union and turning around to John l..
Lewis, said, "and John when you
took over Office the first thing you did
was to sell them out" There was
some applause tho the statement was
made ironically.
Morris challenged the Nova Scotia
miners to leave the U. M. of A. say
ing that they were liability, rather
than an asset. He reiterated that
the Nova Scotia miners remained at
work while the miners in the United
States were on strike tho he knew
quite well that there was law in
Canada prohibiting under severe PEN
alties in calling of strike until an
appeal was first made for a Concilia-
ton Board.
Delegate William Deck, reminded
the platform and pointed out that
despite the use of the red DOGGY in
order to poison the minds of the dele
gates against the Nova Scotia miners
that they were not expelled from the
union because of any demand they
made for utilization with the Red In
ternational. He urged the delegates
not to allow a dictatorship to be set
up in the United Mine Workers of
America that would allow John L.
Lewis or any other individual who
happened to be in Office of president
to get rid of his opponents at will.
Delegate William Deck, reminded
the officials of the union that they
were only the servants of the miners
and not their masters.
Thomas Kennedy of the resolutions
committee stressed the illegality of
the Nova Scotia strike. That was the
red thread running thru the admins
tration attack on District 26. They
did not abide by the sacred contract
even when it was violated in spirit if
not in letter by the second party to
the contract, the coal operators.
Delegate Freeman Thompson, read
from a speech, an extract, delivered
w IAGcAQCAll Il IalAh EdIItHRIOn Ol
District IL, on the Kansas situation
lin which he declared that some years
ago, the then president of the Indiana
miners, Van Horn by name, ordered
the miners from certain coal COM
pany to cease work and the Interna-
tional President, Tom Lewis ordered
them back and was sustained by the
International Executive Board. John
L. Lewis at the following convention
made a motion censuring the presi-
dent and the executive board for their
action and the motion was carried.
This is the same John L. Lewis. de-
clared harrington, who now brushes
the Kansas miners for similar act.
John L. Lewis in reply offered the
defense that this occurred fifteen
years ago. Since then the laws of
the union have changed. And so has
Mr.. Lewis it seems.
The Lewis machine has success
fully weathered the Nova Scotia
storm. The next and chief test will
be the Howat case.
