DISTRICTS RENT COMMISSION
EXPIRES AFTER STORMY CAREER
Vide Divergence of Opinion Prevails to Future
Relations of Landlords and Tenants-Nearly
e.. 10000 Disputes Handled by Board.

creating the body was based. Since
that time officials OF the commission
state they have received many ap-
peals, which they have not been able
to handle, and have made a survey,
which would indicate that rents are
still being raised.
In opposition to this statement
prominent and old time Washington
real estate and building concerns hold
that they are now on a competitive
basis in the renting field, particularly
with respect to apartments. They
state that there is now a falling
rental market and that they have to
offer inducements as the competition
is becoming keener.
The Washington Real Estate Board
has successfully handled a number of
landlord and tenant disputes since
the close of Congress and has ar
ranged satisfactory settlements in
majority of the cases. This work
will be continued. The ma ajority of
people, however, believe that there is
bound to be some adjustments fol-
lowing the expiration of the commits
sion.
While the chairman of the commits
sion states that rentals are being
raised at this time. former Senator
Ball, member of the commission.
takes the stand with many others
that a wholesale increase in rents
will not come about as the commits
sion passes.
History OF Commission.
Probably no public body in the
District has been the center of so
much discussion. Many congressional
hearings, tenant protest meetings,
charges and counter charges, law
suits and other moves have been in
volved in the life of the commission,
particularly during the latter period
of its existence. During the last con-
gressional hearings President Cool
idge, the entire real estate organiZa-
ton of the country, chambers Of COM
merce, prominent lawyers, local civic
bodies and tenant organizations were
drawn into an extended fight for and
against the extension of the commits
sion's life.
The Salisbury resolution was
adopted in 1918 and was to run until
the treaty of peace. This prevented
the eviction of tenants by owners
even if they refused increased rents,
but did not provide a rice-fixing
commission. On July IL. 1919, this
was extended for 80 days.
On October %. 1919, the first act
providing for a Rent Commission was
passed and authorized for two years.
On August "a, 1921, the act was ex-
tended until May %, 1922. On May
%, 1922, 1t was amended, the COM
missioners increased from three to
five, and life of the board extended
until May %, 1924. On May II, 1924,
1t was extended until the present time,
Evening star., 1925-05-22

efforts failing during the last session
to have the act again extended.
The late Commissioner Oyster was
the first chairman Of the Rent Com
mission. He was followed by A. Left
wich Sinclair, Richard s. Whaley and
the present retiring chairman, Oliver
MetZerott. With Mr.. Metzerott the
following commissioners go out of office:
Clara Sears Taylor, William r. GUIDE,
Thomas E. Pheeney and former Sen
ator L. Heisler Ball. Other officials
torney; Mrs. Grace Hayes, assistant
attorney. and William Sabine. jr.,
secretary. Practically all the present
clerical personnel have found employ
ment in other departments. Many,
however, were dropped when the court
action rendered the commission i'm.
potent in December.
Present Rental Situation.
The recent survey made by the
commission shows, according to Mr.
Metzerott, that Of the 1900 small
houses and flats selected as places
likely to attract Government work
ers. 535 raises had been demanded
recently or were in effect. Twenty
one decreases were found and s.
places were occupied by the owner
A survey of 500 apartments, also
selected, show that Isl rents have
been raised. decreased, with 19
vacancies. This, Mr.. Metzerott feels
substantiates his statements that
rents are now being raised
The chairman of the commission
says, however, that he thinks a re
turn of the Rent Commission In
Washington will not be the result OF
agitation for 1t here, but will come
about through following the example
of other large cities throughout the
country. which, he says, will all soor
have rent-control bodies. This he at
Evening star., 1925-05-22

tributes to the great urban trend of
population.
Despite the fact that tie great
building boom in Washington Is bring
ing about the erecties Gf hundreds Of
houses and scores Of apartment
houses, Mr.. Metzerott says at this
time he does not see any relief for the
poor or moderately well of people.
He says that he feels that there are a
great number Of vacant apartments,
but the price asked for them Is too
high.
Real estate men blame the commits
sion for the conditions complained of
last year, because, they say, the COM
mission made 1t unattractive for in
vestors to build rental properties, thus
cutting off the supply. They also feel
that rental regulation caused many OF
the reliable owners OF the city to get
rid Of their buildings to SPECTATORS
They also feel that the commission
stirred up unpleasant relations be
tween the landlord and tenant by
hunting up cases where people were
satisfied and where conditions were
mutually agreeable to landlords and
tenants.
