RENT PAYERS HOLD

OVER LANDLORDS
Tenants, Properly Led, Gould
Untax Realty, Cut Rents
and Start Great Boom.

Do New Workers really want lower
rents?
Here is chance for them 90 cut
their rents by 25 per cent and at tho
same time add vastly to the riches OF
the greater city by increasing real
estate values at least 25 per cent.
At first glance this looks chimor;-
cal. but economists who have studied
the problem thoroughly believe that
the idea is practical and sound. In
brief. this Is the situation:
Real estate has been taxed 20 the
limit Of confscation. Realty oNncrs.
politicians and municipal tinlnclcls
are straining every effort 20 find
measures of relief They must lilt
the growing tax burden from real cs-
tate In order 10 save owners from
bankruptcy and TO preserve the City's
credit. which ts based on total rcnt
estate valuation. They are rushing e.
tho Legislature with many bills Tor
altering the system " taxation, TAcy
are divided into factions. each rcck-
ing measures for sclf-intcrrst few
basing their propositions on general
public good alone.
But the woes OF real estate owners
are not worrying the great body ~
rentpaycrs very kcenly. There arc
approximately 100000 realty owners
in the greater city. but the number
of rentpayers who have vote at tho
elections. including women, exceeds
10000. The 750.O 900 rentpaycrs are not
in active sympathy with the 100000
realty owners. but the landlords must
get the political support of the rent
payers In order 20 obtain legislative
relief. Tho landlords have been iois-
ing rents so ruthleSsly and have been
deprivinE rentpayers ~ heat hot
water and other things for which
rent Is supposed 90 pay 50 generally
that tenants unions and similar 5t-
ganiZations have been formed to seek
legislation tending Co lower rents or
give tenants more value FOR their
money
Landlords have threatened higher
rents unless the 100000 voting rent
payers aid them In keeping down the
tax rate. But none of the landlords
has promised 20 lower rents In return
for such support.

hangs the hope of those working to
upset the Prohibition amendment.
They contend that in states that
have adopted the referendum the
referendum constitutes an actual part
Of the legislative body of the State
and that It's consent TO the passage
OF the amendment is as vital as the
action of either branch of the Legis-
lature.
When the point was first advanced
the Senators from some OF the dry
states and the legal experts of the
Anti Saloon League answered that
the referendum applied only to State
matters
Now tho decision OF the United

ALBANY. Feb. l5-Adv'sod that
Congress does not intend TO enact

tion Amendment. but will leave TO
the individual States the dctermina-
tion OF tho question OF the alcoholic
content Of beverages. legislative lead
ers are preparing to pass a bill
throwing down the bars to light

night In behalf Of Prohibition made
certain the ratification OF the Federal
amendment arc advocating a liberal
and reasonable construction of the

| drawal from their former rigid posi-
tion demanding bone dry Prohibition
I IL the result OF letters from the
home folk' and declaration by at
least twelve Assemblymen who voted
10 ratify tho Prohibition Amendment
that they will oppose any measure
that does not permit the manufacture
and sale Of beer and light wines.
The votes Of these twelve members
Joined to those OF the vets will make
certain the enactment OF law de-
fning literally what shall constitute
an Intoxicating beverage.
The vets arc advocating defining
Intoxicating beverages as those con-
tanning as high as Is per cent. OF
alcohol. This high content, howcvo r,
IA not likely to be adopted. 1t is not
improba bic that n per cent, beer
may he legalizcd.
The advocates OF liberal construc-
ton who were lined up with the rati-
1cationists contend that it would be
better politics to adopt an alcoholic
content that will stand the test OF
the courts.
"lf we put the content too high. the
courts would take judicial notice of
the fact and upset the law" said one
of the Republican leaders to-day.
