The news scimitar. (Memphis, Tenn.) 1907-1926, 1920-06-16
Advised of Boost,

owners or agents OF several larger
apartments. one on Madison, near Nc
Lean, and another on Poplar, near Dun
lap, have advised their tenants that
rents win be increased with the expiTa-
ton of present leases.
Just what steps Commissioner John
son and his associates Will take to curb
this evil have not been definitely de-
cided and viii depend largely upon in
formation secured from other cities and
the study OF measures taken in other
cities,
Fair rent committees appointed In
other cities have been given the au-
th6rity to conduct hearings and assess
fair rental on apartments, rooms and
houses Failure to observe the prices
fixed by these committees has resulted
In increased taxes to the apartment
owner. Public sentiment plays large
part In forcing landlords to deal fairly
with tenants, but a great difficulty Is
experienced in other cities is that peo-
pie who own their own homes have not
lent their active support to their less
| fortunate fellow citizens, who are COM
PEELED to rent.
An awakened public sentiment, in the
opinion of Commissioner Johnson, VIII
go far toward forcing rentals down to
n reasonable figure, In the same con-
nection, Mr.. Johnson pointed out that
people who rent homes and apartments
themselves are largely responsible for
large number OF them to outbid others
in their desire to secure desirable apart
ments and homes.
The small salaried men are the ones
who suffer from this evil, as the man
who draws large salary can easily
afford to pay a rental that those on
smaller salaries cannot meet An in
stance of this was also cited by the
commissioner who declared that a cer-
tain house in Memphis was for sale,
the owner offering 1t at $4,000, Two
agents with whom the property had
been listed. met at the house with pros
pective buyers, After looking over the
premises one OF the buyers stated to
the owner, who was also present. that
he would take the house at the market
price, $4,000, The other buyer prompt
ly offered $500, This was followed
by an offer Of $4,000 from the first
would be buyer, and then the second
man offered 50, 500, The owner prompt
ly closed the deal at that figure. 81 500
more than he had offered the place for.

The murderer who throws bomb into

showed very clearly that man is created
only for God and that he lives not by any
