COURT HOLDS OCCUPANT
OF STORE MAY REMAIN
Purchaser Who Sought to Boost
Rent 1868 a Month Loses
Eviction Suit.

A judgment asked by Walter
Brownley for possession of property
at 1900 F street northwest, occupied
by Richard Hartley as a cigar store.
was refused today by Justice Siddons.
presiding in circuit division, No. ..
Brownley, it is claimed, recently
bought the property in question, and
1t was alleged by Attorney Winship
Wheatley, representing Hartley. thai
Brownley sought to increase the rent
from s1S7 to $3.50 a month. which his
client refused to pay.
Brownley brought suit in the Mu-
nicipal Court for possession of the
property, declaring he wanted IT for
his own personal use and occupancy
The court found in favor of Hartley,
and Brownley appealed to the Dis
trict Supreme Court.
Brownley, represented by Attor-
neys Blair and HELEN, filed a motion
for judgment, repeating the claim
that he desires to occupy the build
ing for business purposes. Hartley
disputed Brownley's claim and de-
clared he had the right to have the
question passed upon by jury.
Attorney Wheatley asked the court
to stay action in the case until the
United States Supreme Court has
passed on the constitutionality of the
Salisbury act and until the Ball COM
mission had decided upon the matter
of the increase of the rent. The
court denied the motion.
