DOUBLE-EDGED SWORD AWAITS RENT PIRATES The double-edged sword of taxation will be used to curb rent profiteering in Indianapolis. Stanley Wyckoff, fair price commissioner, said yesterday. Demands will be made upon the United States internal revenue collectors and upon local taxing officials that alleged rent profiteers pay taxes to the full amount of their charges for rent, he added. Rent profiteers also were attached -oy Mr. Wyckoff as citizens disloyal to the city. . "Every city has the problem of housing before it now,” he 6aid, ‘‘and the surest way to injur** the Industrial growth of any city is to hold up the working people in the matter of rents. Not only are these men hurting the city, but eventually they will injure themselves. because If they hamper the growth of the City they aiso keep their property from becoming more valuable.” The fair price commission has received many protests against increases In rent, according to Mr. Wyckoff. Many of these come from the oast part of the city, particularly from railroad men who rent small houses. / . . Reports were given to him, je said, that one man who owns many houses had increased the rent in jumps so that it represents an increase from $lB to $32 a month for small houses. "I am- calling into my office owners of large numbers of houses, and questioning them concerning the increases, value of their property and other questions,” said Mr. Wyckoff. “I also. wiU hiiyc men examine the valuation placed upon these properties for taxation. The whole result of the investigation will be laid before the In ternal revenue officials and before local taxing officials. It will-be up to these officials to tax them accordingly,” he idrted.

Bank Tenants Kick at Raise in Rent A i osamittee of ten, headed by Harry A. Fenton, whs named yesterday by tenants of the Peoples Bank building to wait on the officials of the bank and register a protest against an increase in rental of office spaee. A meeting of tenant* of the building was held at noofl yesterday in the law library on the twelfth floor. Indignation was expressed over the action the hanu had taken in raising rentals. Under the plan of improvements the bank has annonneed the law library will be torn out and used for oflfiees. This has raised a protest from the lawyers In tho building. 1 , About thirty tenant* attended tlie meeting. The committee was instructed to inforffi the bank official* that if the increase, as announced, stands the ten ants will move as soon as they can find suitable quarters. It was intimated that the lawyers of the city might band to gether and finance the construction of an office building strictly for lawyers on a co-operative basis.

NOBODY WANTS CITY CONTRACTS "An unstable market in building materials and the labor shortage may cause a serious delay in improvements of city streets. No bids were presented yesterday by contractors to the board of public works, which had called for bids on ten public improvements. Estimates on the improvements were based on the present market prices of building materials. It is said that it is impossible for contractors to get quotations for longer than twenty-four hours in advance on mateiials. Members of the board of works said today that contractors could not safely bid on improvements, basing their bids on the present market prices. According to Dwight S. Ritter, city purchasing agent, building materials have increased 80 per cent since last year and indications are that they will rise still higher. Another element entering into the failure of the board to receive bids on proposed improvements is the unsettled condition of labor, according to local contractors. Cement and concrete seem to be the most Irregular In price and the hardest to obtain, according to members of the board. It is believed, however, that suf fielent asphalt can be procured to carry on the paving program. It was decided today to readvertise improvements on which no bids were received during the middle of April In hopes that it will be possible for contractors to estimate the cost of improvements at that time. RIDS FAIL TO COME ON STREET WORK. No bids were received on the following sidewalk improvements; Minkner street, from New York street to Ohio street; Liberty street, between Michigan and Vermont streets; Illinois street, (east side only), between Maryland and Georgia streets, and between Georgia ami Jackson streets: Linden street, from LeGrande avenue to Raymond street; Gimber street, between Shelby and Dietz streets. No bids were -.eceiveil for grading and graveling of Git.ibt i street between Shelby and Dietz street; Linden street between LeGrande avenue ami Raymond street, or the first alley south of Prospect street from Dawson street to Reid place. No bills were received for the per fnuuent improvement of the first alley south of Maple road from Carrollton ave nue to the first alley east of Guilford ave

POLL SHOWS 473 EMPLOYERS FOR DAYLIGHT LAW Daylight saving by city ordinance is i favored by 473 persons out of 1,975 to ; whom questionnaires oil the subject were sent by the Associated Employers of Indianapolis: only thirty-seven opposed the plan and others indicated lack of interest by not making returns. K. A. Kahn, chairman of the daylight saving committee of the employers, looked upon the result of the mail canvas of business men as a triumph for supporters of the movement. Nearly nil the thirty-seven who opposed the ordinance plan qualified their stands by writing that they favored setting the clock back an hour as n national measure, but were skeptical of attempting local daylight saving. Seventeen of the 473 persons who In dorsed the ordinance were members of firms which had sent in affirmative replies, so their votes were disregarded in the official total, which was recorded as 4 .“>6 affirmative votes. Only 41S employers, favorable to the plan, gave the number of workers in their employ, so a total of those represented tn the voting can not be obtained. The 418—all of whom favor the ordinance — reported 40,086 employes.

FIGHT CLOSING OF GIRLS’ WARD Woman Declares Move Will Be Social Menace to City. ‘Club women of the city who know of the things accomplished in the girls’ detention ward at the City hospital, are up in arms over the announcement of the city board of health that it will be closed Mondnjr. Lack of funds is given by the board of public health as the reason for closing the detention wagd. The American War Mothers of Marion county have adopted resolutions of protest and they will bo taken to Mayor Jewett by a committee of women. “If this ward is lost at this time, twenty girls suffering from infectious diseases —many of them placed there through order of tile court -will be turned out on our streets without home, money or friends.” soys a resolution adopted l>y tho war mothers. “These girls have been placed in this ward that they might regain their health and selfrespect and be given an opportunity to become useful citizens.” The detention ward bas interested many prominent women of the city, after its object was explained at club meetings by Miss Laurel Thayer, probation officer of the city court. Members of the Local Council of Women American War Mothers and other organizations visited tho ward and encouraged the girls kept there, suffering from social diseases. Many women have made gifts to the girls there, have helped make clothing and given furniture to the ward. “It is more dangerous to the community to allow these girls to roam the streets than to permit a person in the last stages of tuberculosis to go among us.” said one of the women interested in the detention ward yesterday. “Most of these girls arc creatures oi environment. They need the protection of the ward until pronounced physically sound. Then they need the help of the good women of the city, and this help will be forthcoming."

CHURCH ADOPTS 25 ARMENIANS The Irvington M. E. church has pledged the support of twenty-five Armenian orphans, it was announced at the city headquarters of the near east relief organization yesterday. About the same time this large subscription was reported at headquarters, 6-year-old Billy Beall came from his home at 3131 North New Jersey street, opened up his “pig” bank and counted out 41 cents, the entire contents, which he offered to help buy food for some Armenian child. Renewed efforts to reach the goal ot enough money to support 2.000 orphans were urged by Edgar H. Evans, county chairman of the relief driv*>, after the war chest decided that, owing to lack of funds, it would not be able to give money to the fund. The war chest board strongly indorsed the movement, however, with the following resolution: "Whereas, the war chest board by reason of lack of income can not make an appropriation for the near east relief; and “Whereas, this board realizes the importance and necessity of this immano and charitable work; be it “Resolved, that we earnestly indorse the movement and sanction the efforts that are being made to raise funds for 1 this worthy purpose.” For the conduct of the appeal today the city has been divided into district*, and each team assigned to a district.

LAUDS RED CROSS FOR FLU SERVICE Dr. Morgan Praises Work in Fight Against Epidemic. The work of the local Red Cross in giving free instructions on the care and prevention of influenza cases in the city during the past epidemic proved to be highly commendable, according to a statement yesterday by Dr. Herman G. Morgan, fcecretary of the board of health. Dr. Morgan said that the Red Cross spread knowledge that not only proved useful during the epidemic, but which is also expected to prove valuable in future epidemics of respiratory diseases. An increase In the death rate from pneumonia during the month of March is predicted by Dr. Morgan, especially in case of bad weather. He said that March is known as an unfavorable month for pneumonia and that the few cases of flu remaining from the epidemic will probably aggravate respiratory cases 'luring the coming month. The prediction does not mean, however, that the death rate for the month will be above normal. In view of the health situation, Mr. Morgan was of the opinion that the home instruction classes of the Red Cross society should he continued for the purpose of instructing citizens in the prevention of infectious diseases.
