SEA. Should the % per cent. Increase
be figured upon S51 or t457
y AnSwer-IUpon ISL. since that Is
what you paid a year ago.
BRooKLYNlTE-On April /, 1919,
{ was paying S36 a month; on Oct 1
81 that year my rent was raised to

Dot 1, 1920. we have been advised
the rent will DO s5s after oct. 1, 1920,
Il we wish to sign lease for year.
They have taken out our telephones
and notified us no renovating wall be
done. What advice7
Answer-If the telephone Is a GUS
tomAry and accepted part OF the
building service you can have the
landlord arrested for removing 1t.
You can compel him to put the apart
ment in a comfortable and habtsble
condition. The law presumes the In
crease to be unjust and oppressive
because It exceeds 25 per cent Of
what you paad a year ago. But II
d. landlord can show by his figures
that s~.ch a raise Is necessary the
court will allow It.
c. n. Fin April, 1919, my rent
was S3S; in October Of that year
signed a lease for a year at SA760.
Last month l received a notice TO
vacate on oct. /, 1920. Afterward the
superintendent notified me by tele-
4 phone l could stay providing l pay

proper thing2
Z Answer-The law presumes the In
crease to he unjust and oppressive
because It exceeds rs per cent. of
What you paid last October. Offer
him S57 and hold to that unless he can
prove in court his expenses Justify
him in charging 500. Don't move from

on the place in five years.
AnsNer-Offer your landlord $3.50
more, which will make rs per cent. Of
what you paid last October. Don't
give him any more until next Octo-
Der, when the law presumes he will
be entitled 10 another rs per cent
raise. Make a conscientious effort
to find another apartment. II you
are unable to do this, remain where
you are and permit the matter to go
TO court and force the landlord to ex-
plain why he wishes you out. To Dust
you he must prove You are an unde-
slrable tenant, wish the apartment
for his own use, or intend to remodel
the house TO increase its housing ia
cilites.
M. J. Lon April Is, 1920, I rented
my apartment under lease which
expires Sept 80 1920. Can the land

OF the lease or is It against the law ?

pairs and has not kept the halls clean.

IS per cent and sI,yn a lease for that
amount II he Is willing. DO not let
him put you out unless ho can prove
in court he wants the apartment for

completed. What can do about this7
] pay f75 for three rooms.
Answer-The law would presume
this unjust unless the laadlord can
prove he Is justified In asking It.
Since you moved into the house be-
fore It's completion a court would be
reasonable with the landlord In the
matter Of the stairs, realizing the diff
fculty Of getting materials and the
unsteadiness of labor.

The Barre daily times. (Barre, Vt.) 1897-1959, 1920-09-28

The rise in the market price of u.
S. Liberty bonds may mean that in
vestors in other securities are becom-
ing somewhat doubtful of the stability
of their investments and are looking
for something more solidly founded;
but at the same time it is a tribute
to the Liberty bonds that the investors
are turning to them with increasing
frequency, thus forcing the price of
the government bonds higher. The
millions Of people who bought Liber
ty bonds at par during the war period
will view with pleasure the approach
of the market price toward the price
which they paid when they were in
vesting their patriotism as well as
their money. The market price may
fuctuate materially between now
and the date of maturity of the bonds
but ut will constantly have a trend to-
ward the maturity value until it event.
ually reaches that figure with the re-
demption of the bonds by the govern
ment at just what the public paid for
them. 1t is quite proper, therefore, 10
urge people to hold their Liberty bonds
and to let them go only as the last
recourse.

A BETTER SPIRIT IN ARMY
CIRCLES.

Judging by his remarks made during
his visit to Vermont, Major General
David c. Shanks, commander OF the
northeastern department of the Unit
ed States army, as successor to Briga-
der General Clarence r. Edwards, is a
firm believer in cordial relations be
tween the regular army and the volun.
teer citizen troops such as the Ma
tional Guard. Evidently he is striving
to smooth over the surface which was
ruffled quite often when the interests
of the regular army and the National
Guard were in conflict during the re,
cent war. 1t is a good position to
take, and Major General Shanks will
have accomplished great work if he
does no more than TO bring these two
sections of the country's military
force into close co cooperation. II was
demonstrated during the World war
that the regular army needed the Ma.
tional Guard and that the National
Guard needed the regular army and,
lastly, that the country needed them
both most urgently. The country
needs them now, needs them working
in the closest cooperation in order to
make an effective force for defense
There should be no rivalry whatever
between the two forces excepting the
good -natured rivalry for the best de-
velopment of soldiery; and there
should be no distrust on the part of
the officers of the two respective units
of the United States army. In striving
to eliminate all the bad features of
the relationship between the two, Ma
jor General Shanks is doing com
work, work which should
be taken up by every officer and ev
cry soldier Of the United States,

air of refinement and culture to mat turs of administration that would be perfectly '1uvely.' So they have de- sided to do so. They will. That is what makes this election thing next Tewsday a yerry unsertain proposi- sion. Ordinerily we would say-fol- lowing the usuel line of reesuning- that is-that the he persuns who have always advised us correctly which way the cat would jump-we would, repeet say-that the repub-. licans had a ciuch and that they would float into power with loud splash.
 Perhaps they wiil-most of the men think so round theese parts--theere appears to be a lot of dissatisfaction among large elimints of our popuia- sion ovver the fact that they air com pelled to seperate themsefs, frum a few hard-earned samolions now and then at the ernest request of the in- cum tax collector.
 Of corse a lot of theese burds ought to be flatteured hat they pay an incum tax-most of 'em would newer have been thought of in that connection before the war--but when a feller digs down in his pocket anI has to coff up three dollers and forty sents to help run the guvver- mint that has set around and dun nuthing at all exsept to win the war he regards it as rathur turf and moor or less of a persunnel affrunt.
