PLAN TO WELCOME KERENSKY
Russians Here Will Give Former
Premier Big Reception

Thousands of Russians in this city are
waiting to welcome Alexander p. ker-
snsky, former premier of Russia, If he
comes here.
This is according to Lawrence A,
fBloom manager of the Russian-Amer-
lean Bureau, 7l5 North Fifth street.
Informed today that kerensky is
again reported en- route to the United
States, MIR. Bloom said the Russians of
this city are strong for Kerensky." He
said rousing welcome would be given
him II he was to come here. saying the
Bolsheviki do not represent the spirit of
the Russian people.
Constantine Won Sternberg, Russian
pianist and composer, declared keren-
eky's appearance here would probably
result in nothing of Importance. He said
he believed kerensky mot altogether
lacking in sincerity, but possessed ot a
good deal of the theatric."

RENT PROFIT HEARING
BY COMMITTEE TODAY
Councils Probers Will Give
Landlords Chance to Ex-
plain Big Increases

score or more real estate dealers
teerng, will have chance this after
noon to explain to counclmanic COM
mittee just why they recently increased
their rentals 80, co. so and in some in
stances 90 per cent.
Councils special committee on rent
profteering has on record instances
where rentals have been increased from
$50 to $40 a month and many instances
of smaller increases. Dealers who are
said to have figured in moves to have
tenants buy or move" will also have a
chance to explain their methods of
profting by the unusual demands for
houses brought on by war activities in
this city.
Enough cases of alleged unfair treat
ment have been found by William Y.
ColbOrn, chairman of the committee to
justify a full report to the Federal
authorities at Washington. The COM
mittee members admit that Councils
have little or no power to improve con-
ditions and for that reason may confine
their efforts to have Washington act
Before doing this, however, it was de-
cided to give owners a chance to defend
their actions
Owners and dealers will be questioned
as to their investments and no particular
attention will be paid to assessments
which, in many instances are said to be
no true indication to values. In cases
where increases are warranted through
investment calculations, taxes, etc, the
protests will be stricken from the list
that will finally be taken to Washington
and ultimately submitted to Councils in
final report

IF. due TO imperfections in modern
writing fluids. some of the most valu.
able records of the times are lost. It
would not surprise certain owners OF
Philadelphia real estate who have be-
come concerned over the rapid disap-
pearanCe of the very words in which
important documents are written.
'lnk such as is ordinarily bought is
very well for the Getting phrases of

art Of letter writing is forgotten, any
way; but when 1t comes to having things
Of historic value fade out almost before
ones eyes, the time has come for radical
steps"
Titles TO landH are imneriled and num-
berlcss controversies over deeds are
threatened If these theories are correct

that much of the ink used in transrrih-
ing public documents is not lasting in

bad, they say. and unless care is taken
