COURTHOUSE IS
 SCENE OF FIRE:
 LOSS IS SMALL
What Might Have Been Ser ious Conflagration Pre-
 vented by Officials

Through the circumstance that high federal officials were working last night in their offices in the up per floors of the federal court house, together with the immediate response of firemen, is undoubtedly due the fact that the court house today is not in ashes.
 Fire which broke out from un- known causes at 30 pm, was dis covered by Judge Robert w. Jen- ,nings of the United States district court, and United States District At torney J. A. Smiser turned in the alarm that brought the iremen to the scene at once. The fire origin ated in storage closet next to a chimney f1ue in the rear of United States Commissioner Burton's Of flee Spontaneous combustion is be- lieved to have caused the fire, but an investigation is being made
 Smoke was issuing through the plaster at several points when the alarm was turned in and had sue ceeded in getting a good start. When it was discovered it was beyond eff fective control with a hand extin- guisher, the fire hose was quickly connected and water turned on by the firemen. Owing to the care ex- ercised by the fremen In chopping hole and directing the water along the chimney where the fire was con fined, it was put out with very little damage to the courthouse. During the blaze guards over the prisoners in the jail underneath the main floor were prepared to get the prisoners to safety had the fire gained head way.
 The closet where the fire started consists of small dark room next to the chimney fiue, opening from the lavatories on the first floor from the basement. It was used to store oil mops, rags and waste used by the janitor for cleaning purposes. The fire started on a shelf of the closet and the theory is that some of the waste rags were close to the chim ney flue which heated them and cduScu tneiH tU UuTSL lulO lldlileS.
 Judge Jennings was in his cham bers and District Attorney Smiser was in his office at the time. The Judge walked along the hallway on the upper floor and smelled smoke He called to the district attorney. Al most instantly smoke was seen is suing from the ceiling. MT. Smiser turned in an alarm. No time was lost in response by the department
 John T. Reed, deputy clerk of the court, at the Zynda hotel, heard the alarm and reached there shortly after the fremen. Morris Tonsgard, who acts as fireman at the courthouse, and James Estus, who were in th basement, were among the first to rush to the scene, and found that the fire was blazing high, and roaring up the sides of the wooden parti tions enclosing the chimney. It isl admitted that few minutes of loss of time by the firemen would have found the fire beyond control The chimney flue runs from the basement to the rear of the commissioner office. During January last there was another fire at the courthouse which started in the basement, but which fortunately was quickly dis covered and put out without turning in an alarm.

ROBITZEK FAVORS
! 3-YEAR STAYS IN
! DISPOSSESS CASES
Justice Thinks This, With Ar
(. bitration, Will Check Rent
Gouging in Fall.

Justice Harry Robitzek Of the First
and Second District Municipal Courts,
the Bronx, believes some measures
should be taken to check the over
whelmlng number of dispossess cases
expected in the courts in October and
November. The majority OF cases
reaching court are arbitrated and not
tried and Justice Robitzek says many
of these disputes could be settled be-
fore they reach the Judge.
IF some one had discretionary
power to look into such cases and de-
termine their merits before they reach
the Justice 1t would be a great relief"
says Justice Robitzek. "a little less
mandatory law, which now compels a
court clerk to issue a precept upon
the application of the landlord. might
answer the question"
Justice Robitzek has drawn mp a
memorandum of proposed changes In
the rent laws which he will submit
to the Legislative Housing Commit
tee now holding hearings in City Hall
The evening world., 1920-07-27

They are. That tho Law be 10
amended as TO empower Judges to
grant stays of three years instead OF
one; that the rent laws be expanded
to include stores, lofts, office build
ings, storage houses, apartment hotels
and places of business in general;
that they be amended so as to COM
pei the landlord to prove a tenant is
undesirable before he can be put out
on this ground (most Justices are
certain they already have this power
and are exercising iO.
Continuing, Justice Robitzek said:
II believe 1t would be wise to ex-
tend the stay limit to three years, be-
cause many landlords are now dis
possessing tenants, figuring on a
years stay, to get whatever increase
they can. At the end Of the year the
stay cannot be extended and he will
be rid OF his tenants. He can then
take in new ones at whatever exorbi-
tant rentals he wishes to charge.
Many thousands of year stays have
been granted. About this time next
year you will see whole apartment
houses emptied--tenants turned out
without mercy or grace whatever.
The consequence is rents will go sky
rocketing again.
Under my three-year recommen-
dalton the tenant or the landlord will
be privileged to come into court once
year and demand a readjustment
| Of the rental to suit the expense of
| maintenance.
1T would be wise to include bust
ness buildings because rentals have
gone to an outrageous figure and
there should be some means of curb
ing them. In some apartment hotels
rentals have gone beyond the fondest
| dreams of avaIice, simply because
| these fellows cannot be reached by
| the law.
II disagree that a landlord Is COM
PEELED 70 prove he undeslrability OF

that ground; the law should be
amended TO make this So

before housing is normal. A year
hence II will be just as bad, most
likely worse. New people are coming

While I do not contemplate maxi
ing a recommendation to that effect,
think il would be wise for the Leg
islature TO take up the question OF
putting the entire burden OF proof on
the landlord in rental increases
whether below % per cent, or not.
There are mighty few cases in my
experience where the tenant has
