Realty Operators
Anticipate Death of
Ball Rental Act

Real estate owners are Celeb"at-
ing the death of the Ball rent law
In advance, according to reports re-
ceived today by the District Rent
Commission.
Notices to vacate houses and other
property throughout the city, II was
learned. are being phrased as If the
Ball act never existed, since no
reasons are given by the owner for
possession of the property.
According to the rent law. an
owner may order a tenant to vacate
within thirty DAYS. il the owner de.
sires to take possession for his own
use, or for tearing down and re-
building rental property.
That this movement has been
furthered by real estate agents is
indicated by the fact that numerous
notices are now being written on the
1etterheads of rental agencies. and
signed by the owner, instead Of on
the private stationery of the owner,
as heretofore, during the life Of the
Ball act.
The rent commission today sought
to believe that rents fixed Dy the
commission will continue in force If
the tenants tribunal closes it's doors
next Monday, when the Ball act
expires.
II also was pointed out, in this
connection. that persons now seek
ing adjustment of their rents before
the commission may waste their
labor should the commission 8
career be ended.
Five cases of tenants who re-
ceived notices to vacate were filod
with the commission today. The
majority of these concerned small
dwellings.
Among them was tnL complaint OF
Abraham Shadd, of 1913 Seaton place
northwest, against the E. l.. Scott
Company, agents, and Hattie E. Mar
shall, owner of the property. Shadd's
rent was fixed at $45 oy the rent
commission, and an increase was
asked of him, the commission was
told.
II was explained today that the
complaint of Capt. II. l.. Wilson,
occupant of an apartment at 1918
Columbia road northwest. was made
yesterday against Algernon s. Gardi-
ner. owner. of the property, and not
against the firm of Gardiner Dent,
of which Mr.. Gardiner formerly was
president. Captain Wilson informed
the commission that he was told his
rent would be increased on the ex.
piration Of the Ball act, and thatsMr.
Gardiner personally notified him.
As the apartment had been under
Ne agency of Gardiner & Dent, IL
~as believed that the firm was re-
sponsible for the action. w. Gilbert
Dent. now president of the firm, said
today:
81 Wtsh to- state that we have re-
ceiVedI no Instructions from any of
the owners whom we represent re-
gardinR evictiOns or increased rents,
and that hav" no knowledge of any
