Explanation of Proposed Bond Issue of
$l0O,0OO.O0 by the City Of
Brookings"

The City of Bookings has now about %S1OOOOOOG of outstand-
ing warrants drawing interest at the rate of 7 per cent per annum.
The above ~SlOOOO0OO has been issued for the following improve
ments: Storm sewer and water, %S65OO0OO; for extension of the
electric light fixtures on Main and adjoining streets and engineering
expenses, and supervision of paving and other additional expenses
caused through the paving of five miles of streets in Brookings,
total of $35yOOOOO.
The $65OOOOO of bonds voted sometime ago have never been
issued because bonds drawing 5 per cent interest could not be sold
and will be Cancelled fthe proposed $780, 900 bond issue is approved.
The commissioners propose to issue and sell SlOOO0OO0 on
bonds at 6 per cent interest, thereby paying off warrants now out
standing. The proposed bond issue is not for any new improve
ments, but for the payment of outstanding obligations.
We, the undersigned, believe that it is to the best interest to the
City of Brookings that the voters approve the proposed bonds of
S1OOOOOOO.

Judge Rules in Favor Of Co.
operative Owners OF Dunn

Another chapter was sdded TO the
already complicated rent situation
in Washington today by Justice
Stafford Of the District Supreme
Court dismissing q suit brought by
eight tenants of the DumbsrtoR
apartments, in Georgetown, to pre-
vent Allen T.. Walker 4 Co., Inc,
owners, from evicting them. In
dismissing the suit the court gave
no reasons.
SOLD ON CO-OPERATvE PLAN.
The Dumbarton is one of the apart
ment houses In Washington which are
being sold on the cooperative plan
and the decision is OF the nature OF q
victory for the promoters and pul.
chasers of such apArtments.

The suit also sought to compel the
owners to recognize the validity OF
the lease.
Attorney Frank ]. Hogan. repre-
senting the defendants, argued that
the lease contains a proviso by which
either party had the right to term,-
nate II by giving thirty days notice.
He claimed this had been done by his

Scores OF tenants have been tricked
into signing leases" the Rent Com
mission said today. The leases pro-
vide that the tenants must take care
OF all repairs. and they claimed that
they did not know the leases con-
tanned this provision. Their first In
timation OF the clause In the lease,
they told the Rent Commission. was
when they made u request for repairs.
1t was said at the offices Of the COM
mission today that most OF the cases
now before them were ones in which
the landlord wanted to raise the rent
but refused to make the necessary
repairs.
The commission said this morning
that the model lease" which they
had drawn up and advised using. wa
not being used by landlords and when
tenants presented this lease for them
to sign that they baked.
II was said that II the Suprems
Court Of the United States uphold
the constitutionality of the Ball REM
act. many damage suits will result
of the tenant having to mako hii
own repairs.
BOTH PARTIES SUFFER-
II. l.. Rust, president Of the Rcal
Estate Brokers' Association and one
of the biggest agents for apartment
houses in the city, said today that
the complaints were probably isolated
cases. The rule Is, he said. for the
landlord to make all necessary re-
pairs, but that In these times of scar
city Of labor and high prices that II
was hard to obtain the services OF
men to do the work. In many cases.
Mr. Rust said. the landlord has had
to do painting and papering which
was the result of the tenants care
lessness. He said he had not heard of
a lease in which the tenant agreed
to do the repairs.
'But in these times we hear OF
many cases in which the tenants are
made to suffer and an equally num-
Der of cases In which the landlord
suffers" he said.
