.OPA Gives
Tendnts a
Real Tip

WASHINGTON, Sept. IL =
GPA)-If your landlord, when
he collects the next months
rent, comes to your door with a
smile and friendly word, look
to see whether he has in his
hand a petition. The landlords
are trying a new line on you.
The petition will ask the gov
ernment - specifically OPA -
to allow your landlord a Is per
cent increase as a reasonable
sum which he deserves and
which you'll be willing to pay.
This petition - begging drive
is only a minor part, though, of
the grand strategy of the real es-
tate lobby here to get their cut
of the postwar profits.
In a pep-rally for presidents
of more than 200 local real es-
tate boards, held here last week,
they were told that government
bureaucrats and planners think
that "the u. S. is flat broke
and everybody is poor. The av-
erage income of people in 1946
is just not comparable to the fig
ures of 1910"
In the meeting, run by the Ma
tional Association of Real Estate
Boards, the realtors were pre-
sented with sets of high-poWer-
ed, carefully selected figures
which went to show, it was as
serted, that there should be in
creases of $40 to $12 month
on dwellings that in 1910 rented
for $50. Fancy figures were also
produced to show that workers S
incomes had risen so that the
typical worker we are expected
to feel sorry for" can now pay
SIS a month rent. SKINNED over
rapidly were charts showing
how the purchasing power of the
dollar had gone down in terms
of the food market basket, cloth
ing values, and house furnish
ings.
The chart that left the real
estate men with mouths water
ing, though, was one showing
the kind of profits taken in last
year even under the "hold the
line" program by such giant
corporations as General Motors,
Standard Brands Goods, U. S.
Steel, and Warner Bros.
(moVies).
Why didn't we get 26 per
cent profile after taxes, was the
question planted in the minds
of the delegates. If these boys
can do this we'll under OPA con-
trolls, why can't we get bigger
share of our tenants incomes?
Especially irksome to the real
estate big-wigs, who have tried
every pressure technique to bat
ter down OPA's rent controls,
was the blunt statement last
week by OPA administrator
Paul Porter in a nationwide
radio report to the people, that
"In one large segment of your
cost of living - your residential
rents make up II per cent of the
average middle income family's
budget - no general increases
will be made And, as far as we
can see, none will be necessary
in the future"
The real estate men are coun-
tering with a power drive to get
all wartime controls lifted by
vote of Congress on March 81,
1947, and to try in the mean
time to get an across the board
Is per cent rent boost for re
lief. F."

Mrs. Woodhouse Sees
Peace Promoted by
Loan 10 Britain

Calling for prompt congressional
approval of 4,400, 100000 loan to
Great Britain, Representative Chase
G. Woodhouse, Democrat, of Con-
necticut, declared last night that
denial of the loan would revive to-
talitarianism throughout the world.
without the loan Great Britain
would have no alternate but to
maintain the sterling bloc" she
said. Instead of one great world
economy we would get two powerful
trading blocs, centered around the
dollar and the pound" .
A member of the House Banking
and Currency Committee, Mrs.
Woodhouse spoke before the Wom-
ems Bar Association of the District
at the Mayflower Hotel.
Representative Woodhouse point
ed out that the war reduced Eng
land from a creditor to a DEBTOR
nation, and that she lacks the for
eign exchange necessary to pur-
chase commodities essential to her
economy. Continuance of the ster-
ling block would force competing
nations to adopt the same system
of government control and to fight
for economic advantage, would foster
power blocs and lead eventually to
a revival of totalitarianism, she de-
clared.
Instead Of cash Britain could
spend at will, the United States
Government proposes to extend
credit so that Britain can obtain
tools and equipment necessary for
the rebuilding of her industry, she
explained.
1T is an insurance policy for
peace" she said.
Observing that the loan and sub
sequent British purchases would in
crease employment in the United
States she warned that unemploy-
ment in this country can endanger
world peace.
Aside from world repercussions of
an economic depression here she
foresaw danger that the United
States may become so involved in
domestic problems that it will lose
interest in forming an international
organization.
In a report on her recent trip to
England. Mrs. Woodhouse remarked
that when she receives letters
pleading, my husband has been
in the Army for II months, please
send him home I think of the
British men who have not been
home for six years"

When the sustaining fund drive
for the National Symphony Orches-
ira is announced each year, un-
doubtedly in the minds of many Is
the question, why does the Or
chestra need so much money-where
does it all go?" The majority Of
people are accustomed to take their
music without thought Of any ex-
pense except that Of buying .
ticket. What Is slow in being
recognized In this country Is that
music is a business and to prepare
for that business large monetary
outlay Is necessary, and more is re-
Iquired to keep 1t going.
In no other line of business Is the
practitioner SO quickly condemned
for inefficiency or inadequacy as In
music. The most musically litter.
ate will have plenty to say II ar
artist or an organization Is moi
perfectly equipped, but when the
preparation and the upkeep is re.
Iduced to dollars and cents there i!
great establishment that such q
thing as music making could cost
so much. An expensive education
for a lawyer, physician or ever
for a college student is accepted
as right, but for music it Is nonsense
