LANDLORDS EXHIBIT
COMPROMISE SIGNS
May Give Concession Based
on Untermyer's Comment
on Court Decision.
WOULD END LITIGATION
Drop From 10 Per Cent. to 8
or Even 7 May Be the
Rental Basis.
TEST SUIT TO BE STARTED
Ex-Justice Richards, Counsel
Tor Owners, Issues Statement
on Cancellation.
WOULD END LITIGATION
TEST SUIT TO BE STARTED

First evidence of capitulation by
landlords who sought to take adj
vantage of the ruling of the Appellate
Division of the Supreme Court, Second
Department, that a return of 10 per
cent. on the total value of the property
was reasonable was seen Yesterday.
An important element on the land
lords side of the controversy is ready
to make a concession and fix rentals
on basis of return of per cent,
and there were indications that fur
Their concession to per cent. might
be acceptable to the Lockwood legis-
lative committee, representing the ten
ants, and be the means of obviating
long litigation and at the same time
clear the court calendars Of long lists
OF rent cases now pending.
As a result of Samuel Untermyer's
opirion, filed with the Lockwood COM
mittee, that return of 10 per cent. on
the total value of the property was
"opr~essve' and ''indefensible" former
Municipal Court Justice Edward A.
Richards, counsel for the landlords in
tie action resulting in the ruling, sug-
gestcd that the landlords. to avoid fur
Their litigation and regain control of
their properties. accept return of per
cent. on the total value. This would
moan reduction of 20 per cent. from
the maximum rental approved by the
Appellate Division. Mr.. Untermyer held
that a return of 10 per cent. upon the
landlords equity in his property was
reasonable, but that the same return on
the total value Of the property would. in
most cases. mean a return to the land
lords Of from 16 to 80 per cent.
The New York herald. [volume] (New York, N.Y.) 1920-1924, 1921-10-01
Figuring Upon Concessions.

Mr. Richards In his statement said
"Mr. Untermyer conceded that 10 per
cont. upon the equity was proper. BY
the equity he means the difference be-
tween the amount Of the mortgage and
the market value of the property. II I
am correct in this assumption then the
landlord, even under the concession of
thu Lockwood committee. Is entitled to
about per cent. upon the whole value
of the property. I believe that rather
than litfgate cases the average landlord
viii; accept that return
Mr. Richards added that one of the
principal reasons that would induce the
landlord to accept q compromise OF 8
per cent. and avoid litigation would
be to regain the actual control of his
property, which he commended, by reason
of the emergency rent laws passed by
the Legislature. had been transferred
from the landlord to the tenant. who
determines what rent he shall pay"
'sThere are about five tenants to every
landlord on jury" Mr.. Richards said.
80 when the landlord sues for an in
crease he has a presumption against
him.
'The present law which makes rent
presumptively unjust and unreasonable
Just because 1t has been increased Is well
nigh ridiculous and is the law that is
giving rise to so much litigation. Ten
ants have got the impression that 1t
Is unlawful for a landlord to increase
rents.
1.-THE Lockwood committee has asked
us to submit test case to the Appellate
Division. This test case will not in
volve the proposition of whether the
rent heretofore sued for was fair. for
that Is now conceded. The new case will
determine whether or not an increased
rent asked after October / is just and
proper

Preparing for the Test Case.

The legal staff of the Lockwood COM
mlttee was busy yesterday in the prepa-
ration of the test case designed to de-
termine what percentage of return on
housing property may be deemed fair
and just. Members of the committee
said last night that Mr.. Richards's sug-
gestion was a sign of uneasiness on the
part Of the landlords regarding the
merits OF their case, and there were rea-
sons also to believe that the landlords
Of office buildings and lofts were like

one of their number willing to go

BORAH FLAYS new
COLOMBIA TREATY
ASDEHONOR STAIN
Idaho Senator Opposing
Ratification Brands it
Insult to Roosevelt.

Senator Borah, speaking on the
Colombian treaty yesterday. said its
ratification would be a confession
Of wrongdoing. of which this coun-
try is not guilty.
The ratification of this treaty
will be construed by the world as
| putting the stain of dishonor ON the
| government, of the United States
said Borah. "and the impression OF
crime on the two great Americans
| Immediately concerned In the Pan
anna transaction. Theodore Roose-
| Welt was not a common adventurer;
John Hay was not a liar"
Borah said the payment of s2s,-
100000 to Colombia in itself would
constitute a "contrite Apology IN
reply to arguments that removal
OF the apology clause in the original
treaty made the present treaty more
acceptable.
Republican leaders for seven
teen years have denounced the the
treaty as blackmail." Borah de-
clared.
Knox Defends Treaty.
Senator Knox. who was a Cabinet
member while negotiations with
colombia were being carried on nm
der Taft and Roosevelt, said the
senate Is morally bound to compen-
safe Colombia, mot for what she
lost. but for what we gained" Knox
declared there is no legal claim
asaInst this government, and upheld
Its course of action.
senator Pomerene said the United
states was partly wrong. and advo-
eating admitting 1t, and making
payment to Colombia.
Senator Kellogg, of Minne.of,
quoted from the CORRESPONDENCE. ~
Theodore Roosevelt in speakins IN
opposition to the ratification of m.
Colombian treaty.
Letters of Roosevelt, written from
sycamore Hill in 1917, argued tbat
u large sum were paid to Colom-
bia precedent would be establish
ed. Roosevelt said by the same
process the Wilson administrator
would be obligated to make pay
ments to Mexico for its inyasions
there, and to San Domingo, Haiti
mala.
Roosevelt L. Quoted.
Inc crux Oh the matter is wheth-
er we ought or ought not to have
recognized Panama" Rooseyelt
wrote, "and II We did badly we
are In honor bound now to restore
both Panama and the Canal Zone
to the bandits from whom they were
severed. Mere payment of black
mail Is not enough.
Of course no smallest particle
OF evidence to show that we en-
gineered the revolution can be pro-
duced; because our every action was
open and has been set forth scores
OF times in minute detail. No revo-
luton was ever more justified than
that Of Panama against Colombia,
and II had not acted precisely as
did there would now be no canal"
Kellogg declared the pact is an
insult to the memory Of Roosevelt
and should be defeated. He argued
that the payment of S25,0o0,00 to
Colombia, as the treaty proposes,
would be an admission that the
United States has violated inter-
national law.
