ON FRESH ANGLE IN THE
OTIS-MUELLER BILL
The Tribune, Boston Store, Otis
estate and other interests, in cahOots
with the Jake Loeb majority of the
school board in fighting the Teach
ers' Federation, have their school
land leases nicely fixed up in the
Otis-MueIleT bill reaching vote to-
morrow in state senate.
The bill specifies SO years as the
period of time school land leases
shall run. The school board is grant
ed power Ito let school property on
leasehoId for a term Of not longer
than SO years from the date of the
granting of the lease"
Max Loeb, member of the school
board, is sending a letter to all mem
bers of the legislature pointing out
to them that live, experienced real
estate men favor SO or 66-year leases
as safer real estate propositions for
the city.
"A Tevaluation every 80 years does
not in the opinion of authorities, who
nave had practical experience, pre-
vent the erection of so-called per
manent improvements and does not
prevent the making by the board of
leases Immediately advantageous,
writes Max Loeb. 1T does protect
the taxpayers interest and afford a
continuous fair basis of settlement
as between the board and its Iessees.
Senate bill Sc, formerly the Bald
win, but now the Otis-Mueller bill,
has many excellent features. The
lease clause is entirely out of har-
mony with the general character of
the measure"
Max Loeb quotes Paul Steinbrech-
er, president Chicago Real Estate
board, 1916, as saying: 81 have be-
Iieved for a long time that it would
be wise and fair to all parties con-
cerned if there were a tevaluation
clause in 99-year leases at the end
The day book. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1911-1917, 1917-04-03

"On account Of the enormous ex-
pense involved and the litigation
that usually accompanies it, to Sc
cure the erection Of a permanent
improvement a lease Of SO years or
more should be given, and a revalua-
ton clause should be provided for, at
least once every 80 or 80 years,
which will be feasible, and equitable,
to the lessons as well as the lessees."

.CRAWFORDS in
SUIT AGAINST
WILBUR ESTATE

The estate of Mark D. Wilbur, who
was a prominent lawyer in this city
about 80 years ago, was the defend
ant in a suit which created some ex-
citement before Judge Curtis in the
superior court this morning The ac-
ton was brought against Mark w.
Norman. administrator of the Will
bur estate, by Thomas and Jetta ;Craw-
ford of Darien who claim the action
has been hanging fire for six years.
After listening to the complaint of the
Crawford counsel, Judge Curtis made
a special assignment of. the case for
October 80 and ordered that the Will
bur estate should pay the witnesses
who appeared today but were not
called.
The Crawfords occupied a store in
Darien owned by the Wilbur estate
and they claim to. have been wrong
fully elected six years ago. They
brought suit for $4,000 damages.
Judge Robert e. DeForest, who repre-
sented the estate, replied to the
charge that the trial had been unduly
delayed by remarking that there had
been some confusion about the bring
ing of the suit and that papers were
not served on him at the proper time.
The late Attorney Wilbur was a
member of the law firm of Dilbur, De-
Forest & Norman, which was well
known to older residents of this city,
He left this city to go to New York
where he was United States District
Attorney for many years.
