In an address before the Dupont

flower Hotel last night, Robert D.
Kohn, chief of the housing di-

ment any municipality could make

yielding $4,000 in taxes. it cost
the local administration 10 times
the amount supposed to be COL
lected to collect the tax. ana po-
lice the area, and provide other
municipal service. A large amount
OF the taxes is never collected,
Mr. Kohn said.
The Public Works Administra-
ton is aiming to reduce slum
areas in all cities. and should
have the support of private cap
ital, if the work is to be carried
forward successfully, he said. He
urged the formation Of housing
corporations. which would be an

dealing with the eradication Of
the SlunS.

tion's territory for community

Of basis" for determining salaries
Representative James P. Buch'
anan CD of Texas, declined to-
day to predict what action Con-
gress might take during the COM
ing session regarding restoration
Of the Government pay cut.
The Texan. who is chairman
Of the House Appropriations Com
mittee, implied he does not be-
lieve the entire reduction will be
returned next year, but pointed
out that the study which Secre-
tary of Labor Perkins is making
into the cost of living here will
have much to do with how much
Of the reduction Is restored.
President Roosevelt, Buchanan
suggested, has the authority to
issue an executive order restoring
any part or all of the cut when
ever he feels that the cost of
living has advanced sufficiently
If the President orders a part
of it restored after Miss Perkins
completes her report. the Texan
added, it is probable that Con-
gress will make provision for a
similar restoration in the appro-
priation bills for next year.

LONDON, April 21.-Although the government is being importun- ed to maintain the ratio between the pound and the dollar, when existed before the United States abandoned the Gold Standard there is no indication any offlclai move will be made to meet this demand.
 The highly articulate section o1 the British press held it necessary for Great Britain to retain advan- tages accrued to her through the depreciated pound but financial quarters seem to support the idea of letting the currency find a level with the hope of economic con- ference will prevent nations from starting competition in deba sed clIrrencieS.
