Unjustified Rent Increases
In Hagerstown Reported

HAGERSTOWN, Md, Nov. 21.-
George M. Bonman, Hagerstown
area rent director, said many COM
plants have been received concern
ing landlords unjustly increasing
rentals on newly furnished apart
mentS.
1T seems that some of the land
lords" Mr.. Bonman said, "after va
cancies have occurred in their un-
furnished rentals, have gathered
together used furniture, in many
cases in extremely bad condition,
and changed the unit from an un-
furnished apartment to a furnished

These complaints have been in

reduction of rents would be ordered
in some cases.
Mr.. Bonman said he advised land

Chicago Grain
BY the Associated Press.

by the Associated Press.
CHICAGO, Nov. 21.-Grain prices
advanced slightly today under the
leadership of rye, where short COW
ering and absence of selling pres
sure gave the market a strong un-
dertone. Advances in the rye pit
amounted to nearly a cent.
Moderate commission house buy
ing, which found the market bare
of offerings, spurred gains of about
81 cent in wheat. Corn and oats
held about steady with the preced-
ing sessions close, interest in the
market being small. Soybeans were
inactive.
There was no news from WASH
ington of an important nature to
the grain markets, and traders were
still awaiting some definite indica-
tions of changes in the flour ceiling
or of news on proposed subsidy plans.
The Commodiay Credit Corp. re-
pored it had completed loans on
3l2884,567 bushels of 1912 crop
wheat through November IA. This
compared with 279,083,7 ,706 bushels
through November 7, or an increase
of 33.800.861 bushels for the period,
Loans averaged s1l4 bushel for
total of s353,7l6.4O4, the CCC said
On the same date last year loans
had been completed on 311 1.324,212
bushels.
Grainmen reported that industrial
demand for cash corn is steadily ab-
sorbing stocks in local elevators.
Low moisture grain, which does not
require as much time and labor in
handling as does wet corn, is most
popular. Traders pointed out that
open interest in corn futures con-
tinues to increase.
Traders who are bullish on the
maize futures claimed that COM
mercial needs for corn are so great
that any prolonged period of re-
stricted country marketings could
affect the market sharply.

Navy Department Shift
To Pentagon Building
Delayed, Knox Says
Secretary Declares Move
Needs Careful Study to
Prevent Inefficiency

The Navy Department will not be
moved to the Pentagon Building in
Arlington County by December
Secretary Knox admitted yesterday
His original announcement had in
dicated that date.
Unofficial estimates on the NOV
ing Gate range from Christmas tc
February l, but Mr.. Knox said the
problem was being given a great deal
of thought.
Asked directly how the Navy
could be moved by December l, Sec
retary Knox said: I'VE aren't going
to.
1T is very intricate and difficult
question to handle and has to be
approached with good deal OF
thought and care SO that when she
move is made it will not impair the
efficiency of the department in the
prosecution Of the war which is, OF
course, the first concern
Asked how many people would be
sent to the Pentagon Building and
who would be brought to the old
Navy Building to fill it, Secretary
Knox said:
L do not know the answer my
self, but we are going to work it out
to have the move the least injurious
to efficiency possible, because some
of the department will have to be
left over here. obviously"
Secretary Knox announced the
move about two weeks ago. He said
it would enable the highest ranking
officials of the Army and Navy to
be together where conferences could
be held quickly and frequently.
In addition to other space in the
gigantic Pentagon Building, the
Navy will occupy the third floor
This will give Secretary Knox an
office just above that of Secretary
of War Stimson and will put Ad-
miral Ernest J. King. commander in
chief of the fleet, Immediately above
Gen. George C. Marshall, Army
chief of staff.

AFL President Attacks
Labor Relations Board
Ruling Against Kaiser
Green Terms Charges
Of Unfair Labor Practice
A Victory for Axis

The American Federation of
Labor was at war with the National
Labor Relations Board again today.
William Green, AFL president,
described the action of the board
in citing three Henry j. Kaiser
shipyards for alleged unfair labor
practices because of a closed shop
agreement with the AFL as a VIC
tory for the Axis because "produc-
tion will be detrimentally affected" "
He threatened to ask Congress, if
necessary, to remove the board
members whom he called "incom-
petent, unfair and unrealistic"
In Portland, Greg. Edgar F. Kaiser,
manager of the affected Portland
and Vancouver yards, said the board
action may ultimately affect the
whole shipbuilding industry on the
Pacific Coast" according to the
Associated Press.
AFL Protests Anticipated.
The board announced Thursday it
had issued the complaint, charging
the contracts had been made when
few. if any, employees had been
hired. If the contracts are invali-
dated, a collective bargaining elec-
ton may be held.
The AFL protestations were an
tcipated by the board when it issued
statement Thursday over the name
of Chairman H. A Mills. The
statement said Public hearings in
board cases have not had the
effect of interfering with war pro-
duction"
Mr.. Green's statement, issued yes
terday, said, The basis of the NLRB
complaint is the fact that Mr.. Kaiser
signed closed shop contract with
is AFL unions before any appreci-
able number of employees was hired
in these three shipyards. If such
contract is illegal or reprehensible,
then every construction firm in the
United States and the Government
itself stands indicted by the Ma
tional Labor Relations Board.
Practice Called Legal.
How were all our new Army
camps, naval training stations and
airfleldS built?" the statement asked.
Government agencies or private
contractors working for the Gov
eminent signed agreements with
AFL unions to supply the men to
do the work. 1t was done efficiently
and in record breaking time. BY
signing similar agreement with
a group of metal and building trades
unions affiliated with the American
Federation of Labor. Mr.. Kaiser
followed an immemorial, efficient
and completely legal trade practice.
The results of his shipyards speak
for themselves"
1t was indicated that the COM
pany would enter denials to the La
Dor Board charges and would main
tain that it had followed provisions
OF its master agreement with the
Portland Metal Trades Council and
regulations set up under the Wagner
Act. In Portland the view was ex-
pressed that the case probably would
reach the Supreme Court to deter
mine, among other things, what con-
stitutes a majority under the Wag-
ner Act and when that majority
must be determined.

COP Leaders Seek
Political Paragon
For Marlin 5 Post
Must Build UL Porty
Without Fovorine Any
Particular Candidate
BY the Associated Press,


Republican leaders, sitting party
ranks for new National Committee
chairman, were on the lookout today
for something akin to a political
paragon who could:
l. Keep the various party factions
"pacified."
2. Devote his time building up the
party organization.
3. Refrain from boosting the
cause of any individual for the
1914 presidential nomination.
Despite these admittedly stiff
qualifications, Republican chieftains
were sorting out a dozen or more
possibilities as candidates for the
job of Joseph w. Martin, jr, who
is resigning to give all his time to
his duties as House minority leader.
The committee will meet Decem-
Der 7 in st. Louis to select Mr.. Mar
tins successor.
Compromise Candidate Sought.
Although there has been consider
able maneuVering behind the scenes
by friends and foes of Wendell Will
kie. the 1910 presidential nominee,
party leader like Senate Minority
Leader McNary, were reported favor
ing a compromise selection who
would be acceptable not only to Mr..
Willkie but to all prominent party
members
This view was echoed by Ralph
H. Cake. Oregon National Commit
teeman, who has been mentioned for
the Craftsmanship himself.
They must avoid scrap and I
think they will" Mr. Cake said after
a talk with Senator McNary. I'm
interested in seeing that they don't
get into any"
Mr.. Cake said the new chairman,
who will serve until the next ma
tional convention in 1914, must be
identified with no faction and must
be acceptable to ALL
Senator McNary has been report
ed favoring John C. Townsend, jr.,
former Senator from Delaware, as
a compromise choice. Friends of
Mr.. Townsend, who managed the
recent successful campaign resulting
in gain of nine Republican seats
in the Senate. declared he would
accept the Craftsmanship if rendered.
Willkie Favors Bradley.
Mr.. Wilkes friends here said he
favors j. Kenneth Bradley, national
committeeman for Connecticut, or
Sinclair Weeks, Massachusetts, COM
mitteeman, for the Craftsmanship,
or some Westerner if either of these
is not available. They said he is
opposed to Werner w. Schroeder
Illinois committeeman, on the con-
tention that he was too isolation
ist" before the war.
Associates of Thomas E. Dewey,
New York Governor elect and a
runner-up to Mr.. Willkie in the 1910
convention, reported he has no par
ticular choice for chairman The
same is said in behalf of Senator
Taft OF Ohio. another prominent
candidate for the presidential NOM
ination two years ago.
The name of John D. M. Hamil-

and now practicing attorney in

who have been discussed include:
