THE REMEDY

The remedy for all our troubles is tl1is-ABOLISH ALL FISH TRAPS, extend the weekly closed season if necessary, continue a sane limitation around fish stream2 and continue stream Watchmen.
 THE RESULT
 There would be a decrease of one million cases in the p2cE. Even MT. O'Malley now admits that this must be. We have advocated this for eight years.
 The population and wealth of Alaska would increase
 Ketchik2n would double in pop ulatiOn. 50 would every town on the coast.

LAW TO REQUIRE LICENSING
OF REALTY DEALERS URGED
Enactment Based on Principles Set Forth
in McChesney Act Is Favored by
District Assessor Richards.

Washington as well az serving 10 set UP
a new protection for the public.
In urging the enactment Of a modi-
fled form Of the McChesney act for
Washington, Mr.. Whiteford pointed ou.
the fact that under present regulations
attorneys and physicians have TO pass
examinations before they are allowed 10
practice. in order TO insure proper and
ethical service to a community. and
that the Government has right to
regulate persons engaged In business
where the opportunity to do wrong IS
great and where business IS Of kind
that gives 1t strict public interest.
Point Stressed by Whiteford.
Mr. Whiteford stressed the point.
however. that such Law should seek
to regulate individuals in business and
not the business itself The validity Of
such regulatory measure affecting real
estate business, he said. is based upon
the fact that in his relation TO client
a real estate broker or salesman Is in
position Of trust in which he. in large
measure, may hold the clients financial
standing and credit In the balance I'm

Laws cannot make men honest. said
Mr.. Whiteford. but proper application
of law may help to eliminate the dis
honest person and prevent him from

The legitimate real estate men OF

FEDERAL BUILDING PROGRAM
TO AID DISTRICT PROJECTS
New Activity Develops in Local Realty
Market Following Plans for New
u. S. Offices.

The Southern Railway headquarters,
now located III the Southern Railway
Building. on Pennsylvania avenue, Is
one of the largest concerns affected
by the Government program. To date
no official statement has been made on
behalf of the railway organization as
to its new location. but the impression
Is gaining ground in local business
circles that the railway Offices will not
be moved from Washington. This be-
lief and hope is growing despite efforts
being made by other cities to obtain
the railway headquarters offices and
rumors that the officials Of the COM
pany had decided to desert the Ma
tional Capital.
Want Southern Offices Here.
1t is believed here that the Southern
Railway will be able to find suitable
new location within the District of
Columbia at price reasonable and at
tractive to the organization. The trade
organizations of Washington have sent
communications to the Southern Rail-
way pointing out the manifold advan-
tages of maintaining its headquarters in
Washington, where hundreds of other
great sectional and national organiza-
tons have their home offices.
Location of the new home Of the rail-
way in Washington. 1t has been pointed
out. would prove of value to the organ
ization in another way. due to the fact
that a great number of the employees
of the company now own or are buy
ing homes in this city and would suffer
loss should they have to move to an
other location on short notice.

The great Federal building program
now in progress in the triangle south OF
PENNSYLVANIA avenue. which in itself
will be of tremendous value 10 the de-
velopment of the National Capital. is
beginning to have definite effect upon
distinctly local real estate operations.
Not only will this unprecedented
building program create unusual inter
est in real estate in Washington. but
the necessary removal Of a number OF
large private concerns located in the
area where Federal buildings are to be
erected has developed new business FOR
local appraisers. consultants. property
holders and real estate statesmen.

The District Building and other city

private organizations, must move TO
new locations. With the exception OF
the tentative selection of the site for
the new municipal group of buildings.
which it is proposed TO locate in the
section north of Pennsylvania avenue
between Third and Sixth streets. no
announcement has been made by the
ORGANIZATIONS affected as 10 where they
will find new homes.

given the stamp Of approval this week
by William p Richards, tax assessor.
Enactment Of the license law sponsored
by the Washington Real Estate Board
also was urged by Roger j. Whiteford,
general counsel OF the board, this week
in addressing the Y. M. c. A. class in
real estate.
In an interview Assessor Richards de-
clared he was in favor Of the enactment
that had been tried and tested
and found reasonable and effective In
other States. The assessor recently was
asked by the District Commissioners for
a report on the two license laws now
pending in Congress, which had been
submitted TO the city heads for study
and report. While not recommending
either bill specifically, Mr.. Richards
| favored the principles contained in the
| so-called McChesney act, which Is

| Real Estate Boards and which has been
| taken as the basis Of the license acts

Purpose Of the Act Cited.

on Public Lands. The RockefellerS
and other figures of national import
ance have the spotlight of Congress
ional investigation focused on their
financial affairs.
The hotels are crowded with COM
mittees from the West and the flood
area, all intent on obtaining consider
alton of their proposals for legislative
action. The Boulder Dam fight, in
or eight western states, has re-opened.
State officials regard the matter so
seriously that the governors have
abandoned the State Capitals where
they reign supreme to plead their
cause at the National Capitol.
The industrial East does not have
an adequate view. of irrigation and
developments like their western
brethren. An idea of the magnitude
of public lands may be cleaned from
the Interior Departments report this
week, in which it is stated 1900,
900 acres of Incorporated lands are
within the continental limits. This
area is practically equal to that of
IA states along the Atlantic seaboard
from Maine to North Carolina When
the forest lands are considered, the
total area of vacant land is 359,OOO,-
900 acres and valued at many billions
of dollars. Legislation affecting this
Federal property is naturally of con-
Germ to all taxpayers, especially those
in the vicinity of government lands
There is small group in the Sen
ate who are disposed to battle for
revision of tariff laws, principally in
behalf of agriculture. The Senate is
the scene of the controversy at pres
ent. The feeling exists that no mat
ter what action the Senate may take,
the House will insist on it's peroga-,
tives, that is, it will demand a recog-
milton of their right to originate tariff
legislation. Party leaders are not all
pleased with the possibility of having
this old-time partisan item projected
into the 1928 campaign. They feel
there are other issues of far greater
by Congress.
The tax program which found such
smooth shedding in the House has
met with rough treatment in the Sen
ate. The Treasury Department has
the support of Senator Smoot, Chair
man of the Finance Committee, in its
efforts to delay enactment of internal
revenue laws for three or four
months. The first collections from
the taxpayers on March Is, as we'll
as the estimated income from other
instalments, will have much to do
with the amount of tax relief that
Congress will afford this year.

WASHINGTON Letter
BY v HDaley

Washington, January 1S.-It is a
| fOregOne conclusion that affairs OF
Congress will hereafter have a di-
stinctly political tinge. The pre-con-
vention campaigns of the major par
ties and candidates for high office
are actually under way. The Demo-
cratic leaders met last Thursday at
the Jackson Day Dinner and the Re-
publicans gathered in December, so
the harmony feasting is at an end.
The responsibility for the rise and fall
on the party fortunes will depend
largely, for time, on the resolutions
committee, which has the unenviable
task of drafting platform or set of
principles to which their fellow parti-
sans will be committed in convention
assembled.
Politics are always top-notch sub
jects for conversation in. Washington.
Legislation dealing with economic
and social problems are usually con-
tingent on political developments so
that these important items never adj
vance beyond the secondary stage.
The unbiased observers find it diff
cult, if not we'll nigh impossible. to re
port affairs in the Capital City with
out giving recognition to politics. To
do otherwise would be to deliberately
blind one to facts.
A survey shows that both major
doors. The Republicans must make
peace with the progressive element in
their ranks to prevent a third-party
being thrust into the Presidential cam
paign. The Democrats must reconcile
the dissenters. The party platforms
or policies will of necessity be drafted
with the idea of winning votes and in
surfing unity and harmony of action
within their particular group. Not
the least of vital factors dependent
on declarations of intentions are those
affecting various groups and indi-
viduals who are willing to contribute
to the campaign funds. Solicitors are
already in the field seeking donations
to meet expenses of the 1928 Presi-
Dental campaign.
The absence of the President on an
official visit to Cuba had little effect
on Congress. The legislative body
held to its own knitting for they have
many matters awaiting their atten-
ton. The various committees of the
Senate and House have conducted
hearings all this week for the pur-
pose of obtaining the opinions of in
tereSted parties before the legislative
proposals are whipped into final
form. The committee hearing prom
Using to attract public attention at
this time is the renewal of the in
quiry into the notorious Teapot Dome
oil scandals by the Senate Committee
