Court Stays Eviction
Hearing Five Days

Because a number of sick tenants
in three apartment buildings in the
$500 block of Thirteenth street NV
face eviction before Christmas
Judge Brice Clagett, in Landlords
and Tenants Court, today granted
their attorney, Col. o. R. Mcclure
a continuance until next Wednesday
of a pending eviction suit.
The Fidelity Mortgage Investment
Co., and its vice president, Edward
c. Baltz, owner of the buildings at
26l8, 1920 and 1922 Thirteenth street,
want the structures vacated in order
to remodel the present five-room
apartments into smaller units for
war workers.
Nine of the tenants whose rent
months have already expired are
contesting the eviction proceedings.
The remaining tenants will be called
to show why they should not be
evicted as their tenancy expires this
month and next.
According to Col. Mcclure, most of
the present occupants are war
workers. employed in the various
Government departments and in es-
sential services here
The Commissioners already have
approved plans for alterations and
reconstruction and it will be up to
the court to decide whether the COM
pany is acting in good faith and not
purely for monetary profit at the
expense of the tenants, Col. MCGUIRE
said. ---
Ernest F. Henry of the District
Rent Control Office, who attended
the hearing, said that he was merely
an observer for his Office and that so
far they had seen no reason to in
tervene.

Ih|der Sends Reply
To Federation on
Housing Charges

Continuing his defense of the Ma
tional Capital Housing Authority
John H. Ihlder, executive officer,
sent to all delegates to the Fedora
ton of Citizens Association today a
five-page detailed reply to charges
made in a recent critical report
adopted by the Federation.
Along with the letter, Mr.. Ihlder
sent mimeographed copies of six
different documents previously made
public in defense Of the NCHA.
Among these documents were a
letter sent last week to the presi-
dents of all citizens associations,
press releases, statements and letters.
Declaring that the recent action
Of the Federation in adopting a
critical report by the Federation's
Committee on Housing and Rent
Control was a complete surprise" to
NCHA, Mr.. Ihlder told the delegates
in his new letter today that I'VE
certainly did not, however, foresee
a sweeping condemnation without a
chance to be heard"
Eight points in the Federation re-
port were answered by Mr.. Ihlder.
The documents sent to the delegates
are intended to put in the hands of
the two delegates from each citizens
association replies to all the attacks
which Mr.. Ihlder said were tied UP
with a vigorous Nationwide cam
paign against public housing.
Concluding his letter to the dele
gates, Mr.. Ihlder charged that the
recommendations" by the Fedora
ton committee promise lack of ef-
ficlency and great expense to the
taxpayers.
