Special Dispatch to The star.
DALLAS, Tex. January 15.-The
National Association of Real Estate
Boards, representing 10000 realtors
and 500 cities throughout the coun-
try, today decided at its annual con-
Nention here to Immediately dispatch
the officers of the organization to
Washington to oppose the proposed
permanent rent control legislation for
the Capital
Those who have been instructed to
appear at the hearings in Congress as
soon as possible are: Charles G. Ed
wards of New York City, president OF
the national orga nization: Gen. Ma /
than W MacChesney, Chicago, gen
eral counsel. and Henry Il. Brigham
of Boston. national housing expert
housing committee.
VIII Come Here at Once.
These men will leave at once, and
it is understood that they have been
instructed definitely by the delegates
from the convention to point out what
they consider to be the bad effects o
the proposed bill and its danger as q
precedent.
Strongly opposing the Whaley bill
for the permanent control Of rental
properties in the District of Colum-
bia, Mr. Brigham denounced govern

port a s chairman OF the housing COM
mittee
Holding that the proposed measure
"iS Introducing a false economic pol
icy which will sooner or later result
disastrously." Mr.. Brigham declared
that the rents in the National Capital
were no higher in other cities. He
deplored the present Rent Commission
as biased body.
Coolidge Views Criticized.
The report, adopted by the organ
izstion, said, in part:
president Coolidge's letter favor
ing the proposed bill shows that he
favors the bill because he fears that
If the law of supply and demand is
allowed to work as it is working in
practically all the rest of the country,
except New York. the Government
employees will suffer. In other words.
he is proposing to force the owners of
real estate in Washington to sub
sidize the Government employees. This
is carrying the program of Govern
ment economy too far. and is intro
ducinS a false economic policy which
sooner or later, will result dis
astrously.
1T is the duty of this association to
bring this matter forcibly to the at
tention of the Nation, and to make
the President and Congress realize
that this country still believes in
the rights of property and the sane
tity of contracts, and is opposed to
governmental control Of our houses"

He has not been to a Broadway
show and, so far as the writer can
learn, he has not even attended a

Those who seek to locate him In
the day time when he is NOT making
a secret run in some armory have
to look Tor him over the frozen

struggles out into comparative open
spaces.
Reception committees and escorts
are the bane of his life. He won't

streaks for the subway and goes
straight TO bed. Firms located in

don't get very far. And there Is

BADGER COACH
MAY LOSE JOB
Director Little M y
Succeed Jack Ryan
at Wisconsin
By LAWRENCE PERRY.

Copyright, 1925, Casper Tribune)
NEW YORK, Feb. 6. = Whether
Jack Ryan will continue as football
coach at University of Wisconsin de.
ponds on a conference to be held at
Madison. II. as a result OF this pow
wow. Ryan decides to retire. 1t is
more than likely that Athletic Di.
rector Little himself will head the
1925 grid coaching staff.
Those familiar with the situation
believe Little will have certain def.
mite statements to make to Ryan.
Whether rightly or wrongly there is
a feeling among alumni at Madison
that Ryan would get better results
were he more closely in touch with
football throughout the year.
He was employed as coach. It ap-
pears. on the understanding that he
would be an all year around instruc'
tor and for this service his salary
was fixed at 5000 a year.
Charges run to the effect that in
stead OF putting in as much time
as he might on his job. he has been
conducting an insurance business in
Milwaukee except when required by
~the active football season TO be In
Madison. He owns a residence in Mil
waukee.
Those who know the Uncertainties
that mark the life of a football coach
will affirm without hesitation that
Ryan is an extremely wise young
man. He is using his head as an in
telligent person should.
At the same time, there is the
angle of those who want to see
winning eievens at Madison to be
considered.
