receiving deposits OF 800 TO $500

The OPA said that the practice
Of demanding such deposits was
carried out by a great many Of
Detroit'S property owners and
rental agencies and charged that
the deposits were indirectly

cess of the OPA ceilings. as the
renter had no guarantee that the
deposits would be returned to
him
BUILT UNDER PRIORITY
In many cases these deposits
were not returned, the OPA said,
the landlords claiming that they
had to be used to defray damage
by tenants.
The OPA explained that houses
of the type owned by the Adler
I firm were built under priority Of
the National Housing Admins
tration, which set rents TO be
collected.
The MIA maximum became

The OPA argued that the de-
posits collected by owners should
be registered in their statements

senting the Adler firm, claimed
that the collection OF the deposits
was not in violation Of rent con-
troll.
