BACKS RENT BOARD
FAITH IN BALL LAW
Opinion Quoted Relating to
Similar Statute Enacted
in Wisconsin.

Hope that the United States Su-
preme Court will declare the Ball
rent act constitutional, on the ground
that Congress has power to regulate
rents "for the public welfare" has
been strengthened in the minds of the
members of the District rent COM
mission through the receipt of a let
ter from George 3. Hudnall of Mil
waukee, Wis, who recently advised
the Governor of Wisconsin that the
state law. similar to the Ball act
here could be sustained.
Responds to Inquiry.
The local commission wrote to Mr.
Hudnall asking for verification of re-
ports as to his conference with the
rent law. which was passed this year.
In his reply Mr.. Hudnall states:
Il came to the conclusion that WIS
consin has the power to regulate
rents under conditions as they eX-
listed in Milwaukee. as found and re-
ported by the investigating commit
tee, and it could be sustained on either
one of three following police powers:
Public health. morals or general vel
fare" He said that he had given this
opinion to the governor orally.
The law of Wisconsin provides for
a commission to regulate rents and
adjust disputes very similar to the
District commission. The question as
to it's constitutionality in Wisconsin
Immediately arose, as it did in Wash
ington.
Board Expresses Confidence.
Confident that the Ball act will be
upheld by the United States Supreme
Court when it convenes. the District
rent board is continuing to function.
Hearings have been suspended for
several weeks to give the members a
brief respite in which to clear up
pending cases. According to present
plans they will be resumed Septem-

pany, the well-known local financial
institution, with headquarters in the
Vogel block on Minnesota street, has
just successfully completed it's first
lustrum. Five years have elapsed since
this concern commenced to do business
in this territory. The rapid growth
of the business made it necessary to
open two more offices in the northwest,
one in Des Moines, Iowa, and the other
in St. Paul. The former, which was
started several years ago, is under the
management Of G. G. Stevenson, manager
Of the bond department of the company.
The St. Paul Office was opened last fall
and E. A. Jrotesend is at the head of it..
The establishment Of other Offices in
Wisconsin and Illinois is contemplated
for the near future.
