HOUSE VALUES
Jumped To Get Higher Rent,
Says Lawmaker

Washington, n,-Real estate operators
in this city have become millionaires
by unloading overvalued houses on
wage earners, said Congressman Ham
mer of North Carolina in urging the
house to extend the District of Colum-
bia rent regulation law.
These buildings are plastered with
first and second mortgages, or trusts,
and the high valuation makes possible
only a per cent return to the in
vestor.
In loading these apartment houses
with mortgages and then selling
them,' said Congressman Hammer,
"the real estate men tell buyers the
rents are to low in comparison with
the sales vaue, and all that is neces-
sary to increase the income is to in
crease the rents to the level of the
sales value and these increased rents
will then give large return on the
investments"
Congressman Hamer said that if
the law regulating rents is permitted
to GO out of existence, the rents now
inordinately high, will be increased to
the level of the sales value This po-
sition is sustained by large real estate
operators.
The difference between the ''sales"
value and the "real" value of Wash
ington real estate was shown in the
case of new owner who. brought a
large apartment and was stopped by
the rent commission from raising
rents. The bank squeezed him for
payments, and the apartment was sold
for one-half what the owner paid
''The man who was squeezed had
bought on sales value" said Con-
gresham Hammer. ''If there had
been no rent law, he could have raised
the rents to the level of the sale value
and then resold to the next buyer on
new sale value BY this method
where would the rents be in few
months 2"

AMERICA LEADS
Mine Disasters In This
Country Greater Than
In Any Other

Washington-One half of the deaths
and accidents in coal mines can be a.
voided, according to w. w. Adams,
statistician, in report to the bureau
of mines.
1t is generally known, the report
states, that more mine workers in
this country are killed by accidents in
proportion to the number of men
working than in any of the leading
European countries, though fewer
men are killed in the United States
in proportion to the quantity of coal
mined
More supervisory employees are
needed, particularly to prevent acci-
dents due to haulage equipment and
to fall of roof and coal. This might
cause an initial increase in coal prices,
Mr.. Adams says. The preventage of
unnecessary accidents would, how
ever, soon more than compensate for
the increased pay roll expense of
supervision, SO that the selling price
of coal at the tipple could be restored
to its previous level, if, indeed, it
proved necessary to increase it in the
beginning.
The report states that mining con-
ditions are more favorable to a high
average output per man in the United
States than in the European countries
The coal beds in this country are
at comparatively shallow depths, and
the seams are much thicker than in
Europe. The European seams are
worked on the longwall system and as
the coal is completely extracted, it is
necessary to use waste or rock filling
| to prevent subsidence of the surface
This dead" work lowers the average
tonnage per employe for each mine
In the United States, where mines
are worked by the room and pillar
method, and where one-third of the
coal remains underground, larger
proportion of men are employed al
the face in actual mining operations
thus making possible higher average
tonnage per man for each man. Con
tributing also to a higher tonnage pei
man is the use of larger cars, made
possible by the thick and level Goa
beds, and also the more extensive use
of machinery in mining operations il
this country.

MOTHER MORTALITY
HIGH IN CAPITAL

Washington - More mothers die
from childbirth in the nations capi-
tai than in any other section of the
United States, according to Miss
Grace Abbott, chief of the United
States children's bureau.
Census figures for 1922 show that
the District of Columbia had a ma
ternal mortality rate of IL. This
means that for every thousand babies
born alive in the District during that
year seven mothers died from causes
connected with childbirth.
Comparing American rates with
those of % foreign countries, the chill
drens bureau found that mothers
chance to escape death from child
birth were better in every country
including Italy, Japan, South Africa
Spain and Hungary, than in Wash

The state was so completely in the

TENTH ANNIVERSARY
OF Burning OF Ludlow Tent

UniOnists

Denver,-The anniversary of the So
called Ludlow massacre on April 20,
1914, was observed by 5000 miners on
the spot where striking miners, women
and children were shot and burned to
death by coal company guards in the

throughout southern Colorado were
present and recalled events Of 10
years ago when they suspended work

company, Rockefeller subsidiary.
The strikers maintained tent colony

Without warning the colony was fired
upon.
Those who were not killed by bull
lets perished in the flames when the
tents caught fire.
The union miners bought the DO
