Had Big Majority “The profiteering bill follows the bill which Representative Ben John. won of Kentucky fathered in the house of representatives to cover the District of Columbia. That bili passed the house by a big majority. This was, no doubt, because rent profiteering in the nation’s capital had reached the point where it had become a national scandal—and also, partly because, I suspect, congress men themselves were being badly profiteered upon by Washington landiords. We ought to be able to make our congressmen see that it is just as bad to be mulcted by rent profiteers in New York as it is in Washington—and that interference with the war work of the govern ment is just as serious in New York Pennsylvania, Ohio, New England nywhere else, as it is in the Dts et of Columbia.
