NEW YORK RENT

VOID BY COURT
cBy The Associated Press,

New York, Nov 1.-The rent
laws to safeguard the interests of
tenants at the recent session of the
New York state legislature were
declared unconstitutional in de-
cision handed down today by Su-
preme Court Justice Henry 7.
Hotchkiss.
Justice Hotchkiss, in rendering
his decision, which was against
Mortimer Osterweis, tenant,
named defendant in election pro-
ceedings, said the law was uncon-
stitutional becaues sit deprives
landlords from all remedy for re-
possession of their property" and
sit is discriminatory because, as
between owners of old and new
buildings and those who was to
regain possession for other pur-
poses, the act denies the equal pro-
lection of the laws"

Study Weather Reports,

Study Weather Reports.
Party leaders, who week after
week had been directing the des-
tines of their candidates and To-
eusing their attention on the
league of nations, the chief issue
of the campaign, pulled down their
desk tops, put on their hats and
went home. Before they left their
headquarters they had scanned last
nninute renorts .fgqnl-. state chair
men, but almost as closely they had
studied the reports of the govern
ment weather bureau.
The state of the weather on eiec-
ton day was considered most inl-
portant, for this alone would deter
mine the turnout of voters. particu-
larly in isolated sections of the
country where heavy rains wou a
upset the best laid plans for trans
porting voters to the polls.
There are districts with streams
which, when flooded, cannot be
crossed and in certain states where
the contest is close, every ballot
Nlays its part.
What the Forecasts Are.
In general, this is what the
weather man had to say of a west
ern disturbance which appeared TO-
day over Iowa and OF the prospects
tomorrow all over the country;
"The western disturbance VIII

Returns May Be Delayed.
With addition of women to those
who choose the electoral college,
marty leaders, of course, expect a
vote greatly swollen over that CT

downpour could hardly discourage
enough voters to hold the total be-
low that of four years ago. ana

Women Must Pay Poll Tax To
Vote.

Regardless of the lack Of direct
Legislation upon the subject. wo.
men who want to exercise the
right Of suffrage after January
first, next, must pay their 1920
poll tax before December 81. This
much was learned by statement
made by former Gov. Luther E.
Hall, now assistant attorney gen.
eral of Louisiana, not officially
expressed, but given off hand as
an informal statement on the
subject.
While there will be little use of
the ballot next year, 1921, all
voters in 1922, when there will be
congressional and other elections,
will have to exhibit their poll tax
receipts for 1920 and 1921. While
there is no direct statute on the
subject of women paying poll tax,
there is a requirement of two
years poll tax receipts as a vot.
ing qualification, and no distinc.
ton is made that would permit the
ladies to escape this qualification.
Hence, they must possess equal
eligibility with the men if they are
to enjoy equal suffrage privileges
Attention is called to these facts
30 that the ladies, just enfran.
chised, may not be disqualified
for any failure to observe all the
requirements necessary to COM
plete their eligibility. Poll taxes
for 1920 must be paid before mid
night of December 81, for the
current year.
