SAFE FROM JAIL
But Manget Promises
Aid To Victims In
Statement

ATLANTA, Feb. 10.-Declar
ing that while landlords are not sub
ject to the penalty of $1,000 fine oil
two years in the penitentia-y as pro
vided in the food control act, the fan
price commissions of Georgia vii
take steps to accomplish by other
methods the relief of tenants victim
lied by proiteering landlords, John
A. Manget, fair price commissioner
for Georgia, has issued statement
in which he explains the mode OF
procedure to be followed in making
complaints. He also indicates the
measures being taken to secure re-
lief. Mr.. Manget's statement fol-
lows:
ITO the People of Georgia:
Some days ago | announced that
all fair price commissions would be
asked to give their attention to rent
profiteering, and notified those pay
mo $4,000 and less per month, whose
rents had advanced more than 20 per
cent in the last two years, to make
report of same to this office.
Hundreds of distressing reports
began pouring in Immediately, and
more are coming by every mail. Many
of these state that the roofs of the
houses are leaking so that it is i'm
possible to live in any comfort. but
they have no other place to move,
and the owners will not mend the
roofs. Others state that their land
lords give them only few days no.
tice in which to pay the great in
crease in rent or move out.
Safe From Jail.
I'm reply to an inquiry made, |
am just in receipt of a wire from the
Department of Justice advising that
the penalty of two years in the peni-
tertiary or fine of $4,000, or both,
could not be enforced against this
class of profiteers and for fear they
may think the penitentiary is in sight
for them | am giving this notice i'm
mediately.
This commission has never order
ed but one prosecution in the SIX
months operations. We do not wish
prosecutions. We wish and earnest
ly beg cooperation. Therefore, the
mere fact that under the act this
class OF prOnLeefS are not directly
subject to fine and Imprisonment will
not deter Georgia commissioners
from doing all within their power to
relieve this distress.
A number of patriotic lawyers of
Atlanta have volunteered to assist
those of our citizens who are not
able to employ attorneys and who
may be treated unjustly by their
landlords. So inform this Office fully
in regard to your case.
For your information, will state
that landlords can not force you to
snove or pay increased rent without
giving you so days written notice.
Can Stay Year Out.
If you have had a lease and re-
manned in your house and paid rent
after the lease expired, the law will
allow you to remain in the house
without any increase of rent for the
remainder of the year.
eff your house leaks and is other
wise dangerous to health and your
landlord refuses to make it safe, re-
port Immediately to this Office before
you pay any rent at all, and some of
our attorneys will advise you.
