N. 8.) -rltero In the shadow of tho Capitol, ( where Congress linkers at regulating: everything from the price of a ouite of swap to what a physician -shall pres cribe for his patient, rents are" higher than anywhere else In the coiuilrV, ao- , cordlnj to complaints frequently olcV ed by those whose vocation compels t them to live In Washington, ' ' The high rents In Washington date from thl) huctle dayi of the war, whon there were dumped Inlo tho Capital thousands of war workers ofuil class es and descriptions. The capital wa not prepared to house them, -houses and apartments were at a premium, nnd rents soared accordingly. They havo not come down. - To all outward appearances the landlords of the capi tal are unaware that the war ended actually on November 11, 1918, and officially on July 2, 1921. When Presl. dont Harding signed the Confreselon al resolution at Itaritan, X. J. ... i. ... , Tho "dollar-a-year men" who flocked to the capital lit large num-& bers during the war share with gTeedjr Washington landlords the responsi bility for the excessive rentals 'now be'ng asked. ' The dollar-a-year men were largely men of independent means, to whom a few dollars more or less were of small moment. They had to live In Wash ington, they wanted to live aa well a possible, and there wa little grum bling when the rents began to aonr and soar and then soar, again. 'They could afford to pay high rents, and they did. Kent Commission Formed As for the war worker! of small means, who had to live on their sala ries, a benevolent Government erected ' dozens of temporary dwelling place, built along dormitory lines, In which' they could live with some degree of comfort. Thus the criticism of. high rents was shut off from this quarter and tho dollar-a-year men were too' busy and too well fixed financially to more than midly protest. The exodus of war workers-from Washington has been slow. And la order to continue their war-time profits tho landlords of the capital raised such a stage a year ago that members of Congress began to speak their mind on the floors of the Senate and House, Senator Ball, of Deleware, finally proposed definite action. Ho fathered what Is known as the "Ball Rent Law,' which established, In the Dis trict of Columbia, a Kent Commission, to which appeals could bo - taken against extortionate charging. ' It Was the first attempt to regulate the price which a tjulldlng owner could exact from tenant, unci its constitution ality wa upheld by a 6 to 4 decision by the United States .Supreme Court. Its primary aim was to restrict gouging. It allowed a tenant whoser rent had been raised to appeal to the Commission against the raise, and, power was conferred upon the Com' misHlon to determine the Justness of the raise. Opinions vary in Washington as to the actual benefits of the act. It was passed as an emergency measure, with a life of one year, it expires In Octo hcr 1921, and a bill extending It seven months has now passed the- Senate. It still has to face the House, and the real estate Interests, who have fought It bitterly since Its passage, are plan ning a renewed assault on It (here. HOlSKS AKE SCAItOK NEW HA VEX, Conn., Sept SO. (t. N. 8.) Kxcept In a few Isolated In stances rents have not Come down In Connecticut and there Is little immed iate prospect of their hiving reduced, according to a canvass of the princi pal cities of the State recently. A few housing corporations have announced reductions of 10 to 15 por cent In rent alt, but the Instances contitute too small a percentage of the entire rent als of the Ktnto to be of consequence. It Is admitted everywhere that short age of housing needs will have to ha relieved before there la a,, chance of rents being lowered, and there la na Immediate evidence of a renowal Of building of homes on a large scale.
