.Lingeman Seeks
Branch Offices
For Rationing
Problem Of Serving
2 Million in County
Makes Move Necessary

To expedite the mounting rarlc
ing problems in the county, c.
par j. Lingeman, county ratio
director, today studied a list
strategically located public schoo
where he may open branch office
by May 21.
Names Of the schools most
suited for this purpose were sub
mitted TO Lingeman by Assistant
Superintendent of Schools Herman
Browe following a conference with
Mayor Edward j. Jeffries and
Arthur II. Sarvis. state OPA chief.
"The need for these branch
offices arises from the fact that
we now are called upon to solve
the problems of more than
100000 residents" Lingeman
said. "When we were only ra-
tioning tires, we only served
about S per cent Of the popula-
tion."
Plans call for about II branch
offices in Detroit and six in out
county sectors. Eventually. Linge-
man said. the decentralized system
will include additional ration
boards to staff the branch Offices.
On May 21. a second sugar
registration will be conducted.

On Rent Control,
Realtors Told
Real Estate Business
Sfesdiesf in Years,
Chicago Man Says
BY LAFE ALLEN

Detroit Times Real Estate Editor
The federal government wasn't
fooling when 1t drew up provisions
for rent control, scheduled to be-
come effective shortly in Detroit
in the opinion of James c. Downs,
Chicago realtor and former presi-
dent of the Institute OF Real
Estate Management.
"Rent control will 20 into ef-
feet In Detroit I'm substantially
the same form rs has been
r outlined" Downs told a joint
meeting of the management
division and the brokers divi-
sion of the Detroit Real Estate
Board.
Under this outline" rent con-
troll will be effective locally on
June /. Rents charged on that
date and subsequent rent dates
generally speaking must not ex-
ceed those charged on April !,
194I.
BITTERLY OPPOSED To DATE
Local realtors are bitterly OPP
posed to the April /, 1941, ceiling,
contending that taxes and costs OF
maintenance have increased ma
terially since that date.
"Whether you get n change In
the rent freezing date here Will
be decided in Washington"
Downs said. IL think we're all
sympathetic to the correction Of
abuses In the rental picture.
!. But on the other hand there
hate been increased costs Of
operation. Your board has as
Its duty to introduce all facts
10 that our government can act
fairly and equitably."
Downs told his listeners that no
man in the real estate business
had a right TO feel sorry for him.

and appliance businesses who

We are q fortunate group. We

we've had In 10 years and II

POINT TO CHICAGO STATUS
Asked why Chicago rents were
frozen as of last March /. almost
a year later than the ceiling de-

'The presumption IL that
rents In Detroit went up faster
