be called drastic" nor is it a punitive
measure against landlords. 1t is merely
an emergency measure to protect ten
ants from those property owners who
would take advantage of an emergency
situation in which freedom of contract
is impaired. Under the proposed meas
ure rents may be raised if operating
costs increase.
Construction of new dwellings, we all
know, is the only effective solution to
the housing problem Toward this end
we advocate use of Lanham Act funds
to house any one working for the Fed
eral Government. To take care of the
tremendous influx of new workers,
thousands of units for families and single
persons should be started Immediately.
These could be turned over to the Alley
Dwelling Authority for use as public
housing after the emergency, thus taking
them out Of competition with private
properties. In addition, private building
should be encouraged, If necessary, by
increasing the $4,000 priorities limit set
by S. P. A. B.
We agree with you that there has been
confusion among agencies dealing with
defense housing, but the situation is far
from futile. Perhaps some officials
should be made to realize that co-ordi-
nation is not possible without sincere
cooperation.

Sees Danger 10 Nation
In Lewis Power to Destroy.
Ta tbs Editov ~ T1,a Rtsr.

Bees Danger 70 N1uOn
In Lewis Power to Destroy.
To the Editor Of The Star:
The Chief Executive dispatches sug-
ary, apologetic notes. Statesmen angrily
decIaim and introduce bills in Congress.
The man in the street, who must pay
the bills, wonders how 1t will end. What
is it all about? 1t is about John L. Lewis
acting logically. He knows where he is
going and has the courage to follow
well-beaten path. He defends his con-
duct by dragging out an old, much-worn
straw man for a beating.
To stop Mr.. Lewis in his tracks no
new laws are required. But some one
must be found possessing the moral
character to enforce intelligently the ex-
isting laws Mr. Lewis is we'll within his
legal rights to call out the miners and
to refuse to order them back to work.
But there his legal right ends The ap-
preparation of property by mass picketing
is violation of both the civil and GRIM
inal laws. Using the same means to
intimidate others who are willing to
mine coal is likewise a violation of the
miners patriotic enough to mine coal If
they may enjoy the protection of the
laws while 50 doing.
The power which goes with the closed
shop is the power to destroy both in
dustry and labor. In fact, it is the power
to destroy the existence of the state,
The appropriation Of property by labor
destroyed Italy and France. Are we to
be the next victim? We may be unless
those charged with the responsibility of
enforcing the law stop fooling the public
and enforce the laws designed for our
preservation. PRO-LABOR.
Says Construction Of New Dwellings
Is "Only Solution" Of Housing Problem.
To the Editor of The Star:
In view of recent news items and your
editorial of October 80, Confusion and
Futility," on Washington housing, you
probably will be interested in some peril
nent data we recently obtained from the
Public Buildings Administration. Federal
Works Agency. Mr. Newton's article of
October 20 stated that figures were not
available on the number of housing units
in good condition which the Government
has razed in carrying out its ofiice-
building program Public Buildings in
formed us that 956 units detailed list
below were demolished since 1888,
652 of these during 1910 and 1s41. We
have no way Of telling how many of these
were "in GOOD condition" but we do
know that practically all were inhabited,
mainly by low-income Negro families for
whom adequate accommodations were
not provided.
Your advocacy Of centralized respon-
sibility" for housing in Washington is
most timely. Indeed, Washington hous-
ing conditions will not be alleviated un-
less problems of the entire Metropolitan
Area are given attention by some re-
sponsible agency.
While we have been perhaps the most
vocal advocates Of rent control, We have
never felt that rent control alone would
solve the housing problem. Psycho-
logically, rent control creates q sense Of
economic secruity 50 necessary to the
morale Of Federal workers in this ma
tional emergency. The present bill.

Simply say to him, Il saw in the paper that

Sound silly? 1t isn't at all. Do you realize
that the whole nation-the 1870 million of US
is merely the product of all the good and
the bad that we do? And if more of us ac-
Hvely approve the good and unselhsh and
actively deplore the bad, we'll encourage
more goodness and discourage the unsound,
the evil, the dangerous.
After all, the very reason for newspapers
existing in America is to bring you the record
of what is going on. You wouldn't be quail
fled to take part in governing the district,
the state or the nation you live in if you
didn't know what was happening or what
the. news meant to you and your nelghbors.
Try this crusade with us, will you? It won't
be much trouble, but if thirty million good

so strong and with such spiritual unity that
