That war savings stamps be purchased with the money saved by complying with the Fuel Adminiatration? request to discontinue the use of automobiles for pleasure riding on Sundays, is the latest suggestion emanating from the District war savings committee. The idea originated with Gilbert Oroavenor, director and editor of the National Geographic Society and one of the most enthusiastic members of Director D. J. Callahan's committee, by which organization the plan has been approved. It has been estimated that hundreds of dollars were in gasoline last Sunday by District au toi and since this item, now saved, was heretofore a regular expenditure, to devote an equal sum to the buying of war stamps will mean no addiburden on the purchaser, at the same time affording; him an investment both patriotic and profitable.

Chance, Mies of war savings and thrift stamps at the city postoffloe for the week ending August 30. amounted to Sales at the Department of Agriculture for the month of August were $4,172, bringing the total for the year to $41,045. Both the United States navy yard and the Navy Department have been active in furthering the sales of war stamps. The former, through its paymaster, records sales to $20.050 for the month of August, a total for the campaign of At the N-avy Department, Chief Clerk F.

3. reports salea of $1,246 for the week ending August 31, making a total for the campaign of $90.350. It is expected that sales generally throughout the District for the current month will show a substantial gain, as a result of the return to city of thousands of Ista who were for the great! er pnrt of August.

ANTI-RENT-HOG BILL IN HOUSE Measure to Check Profiteer Drafted by Industrial Housing Bureau. A rent bill intende9 to be profiteer-proof drafted by the Bureau of Housing and Transportation wai Introduced in the House yesterday by Representative Frank Clark, of Florida, chairman of the Committee on Public Buildings and Grounds. The bill empowers the President to requisition houses and apartments until after ihe war. In case the landlord la not satisfied with the compensation declared by the government to be a fair one, he is entitled under the terms of the bill to sue the government In auch caae he is paid thi-tee-fourth? of the amount set by the government and the difference between this and the amount he thinks he should receive will be paid to him on decision of the court to that effect Sereral Similar Bills. There are several anti-profiteer rent billa before the House, but this one drafted by the Bureau of Housing and Transportation seems most fully to meet the needs of the bureau.

Careful investigations have shown, according to the statement of the bureau, that in industrial districts have increased in some instances considerably more than 200 per cent and that the labor turnover in war industries, because of the rise In has actually retarded sorely needed by both army and navy. The Emergency Fleet Corporation has been able to protect its workers from unwarranted rent Increases hrough the agency of a law even wider in its scope than the bill just Introduced. It Is held to be highly desirable, therefore, to have all war workers on an even basis in this respect, so that the labor turnover from cne war Industry to another will be minimized to the lowest point. Just elalms to increase in rent will not be ignored, but excessive rises imposed because of shortage of housing rr-ace. due to the influx of war workers will not be tolerated.

treni Ptmonitr? Investigation has shown that some landlords have raised their rents every time the wage scale of the community hfts been increased, and that they have disregarded rethought of basing their rents on what might be considered a fair profit on the Investment The Bureau of Industrial Housing and Transportation takes the stani that at a time when labor la so Wally essential. It nothing of unpatriotic for house owner? to greater return? than they are Justly entitled to. In the Bruer.
