Twenty-six Tammany hoaters have

Landlords Take Advantage
There is no doubt that hundreds Of
landlords are taking advantage Of the
domestic anthracite shortage In order
to withhold heat from their tenants"
declared Arthur l.. Learoyd, District
Fuel Administrator. "If they can get
out of giving heat, even for a few
weeks, they will continue to do so, even
some landlords who have plenty Of coal
in their cellars.
"It is true there ia serious shortage
in the domestic sizes of anthracite, but
there is any Gods quantity of steam
sizes and Of soft coal available.
MANY Of the landlords will say they
cannot use the steam sizes alone be-
cause their CRATES are unsuitable. In
numerous cases that is true. But they
can mix steam sizes up to 30 per cent
with such other coal as they may have
and get fully as good results And soft
coal can be used on practically all
CRATES. 1t is not so clean as anthracite,
but heat comes first in point of health
and convenience to the tenant in this
connection.
Thus it becomes apparent there is
no way out for landlords to avoid Civ
ing heat should tenants take advantage
Of their legal rights in the situation. .
