D. T.. Rent Chief Accused
Of Adjustment Failure

Robert F. Cogswell, administrator
of the District Rent Control Act, has
failed to take advantage of Section
3 of the District Rent Control Act,
empowering him to make adjust
ments by either increasing or de-
creasing maximum rent ceilings or
minimum service standards when
ever conditions require it, Chairman
Randolph of the House District
Committee was told yesterday in a
letter from Leon M. Shinberg,
Washington attorney.
Mr.. Shinberg said he favored ex-
tension of the Rent Control Act for
another year provided something
is done by way Of amendment or
otherwise with respect to Section g."
He pointed out costs involved in
the maintenance and operation of
real estate, such as general repairs
Of every type, have increased as
much as 100 per cent since January
l. 194l. the effective date of the act
1T is difficult to understand why
the administrator has failed to act
under the authority of Section 8
when by his own statement there
have been in the neighborhood of
$1,000 petitions for adjustments of
rents filed In his Office" he declared.

Government yesterday.
The strike threat looms as a build

hensively the scheduled walkout Of

workers, called for tomorrow.
Home builders are protesting
OPA's request that Congress author

thus prolonging the housing short

Some quarters said the Americans
shared the British annoyance over
Russia's unilateral action.
Deadlock Reported.
While there was no official dis
closure of what trend the confer
ence was taking, members of the
Big Five delegations said privately
that the council was deadlocked on
major Balkan issues, with Russian
views opposed to the American and
British positions.
There was speculation whether
the British and Americans might
bring up at the conference the is
sue of Russian influence in the Bal
kans-an issue that has been side
stepped thus far.
Both the British and Americans
have insisted that the governments
of Hungary, Romania and Bulgaria
be reconstructed before peace trea-
ties are signed. The Russians hold
that the present Soviet-sponsored
governments are democratic and
representative
The trade agreement to which the
British object was said to propose
the establishment of Soviet Hun
garian combines for the develop
mept of coal. oil, steel. railroads and
all other basic industries, as well
as joint bank to finance mutual
trade.

Strikes

1t was indicated that if the petit
ton is approved, the vote would be
set for October a.
Federal officials expected the
JAW to follow up it's notice on
General Motors with petitions for
strike votes in plants of the Chrysler
Corp, and Ford, others, members OF
the industry big three" perhaps
at weekly intervals. This would
give NLRB the huge task of polling
more than 100000 workers in three
elections. NLRB estimated the Cen
eral Motors poll would cost the Gov
eminent $150,000.
Although only SO GIN plants are
under contract with the JAW, a
union spokesman said strikes in
those would force shutdown of more
than 40 other corporation branches.
1t was held certainty that the
workers would vote to strike If a poll
is taken.
One bright spot appeared in the
oil industry dispute, where strikes
portend more discomfort for the
public than all the other industrial
disturbances
O. A. knight, oil workers presi-
dent, issued an appeal from Fort
Worth, Tex, urging union members
to hold up further strike actions
pending outcome of a mediation
conference called for Tuesday in
Chicago by the Labor Department.
Mr.. Knight, whose union seeks
50 hours pay for a 40-hour week,
said, II am hopeful that at the Chi
cago conference we can come to
an understanding so that workers
can go back to their jobs with the
assurance there will be no reduction
in their earnings"
In Elizabeth, N. j., approximately
1900 refinery workers at the Stand
ard Oil Bayway refinery voted to
l to accept the company's offer of a
Is per cent increase in basic pay
and 40-hour week, their union
announced today. Officials repre-
senting the workers said they would
resume negotiations Immediately
for an. increase above the accepted
Is per cent.
The oil strike forced the closing
of more than a score of refineries
and plants in Texas, Indiana, Michi-
gan, Ohio, Illinois and West Vir-
ginia.
Upwards Of $1,000 refinery work
ers were out in Texas with 10 plants

Two Held In Attempt
To Pass Stolen Check

Police yesterday arrested two COL
ored men which they said were try
ing to pass a stolen check at Kent's
Jewelry Store, 701 Seventh street
NV. and then last night arrested
prowler In the store after sum-
moned there by a burglar alarm.
Police said the check for $3.50 pre-
sented by one Of the two colored
men was one OF two checks stolen
Sunday when some one broke into
st. Luke's Episcopal Church, Fiji
tenth and Church streets NV,
and removed them from a ledger,
The checks, police said, were blank,
but were signed by church official.
At the same time small amount of
money also was taken, police said.
The man trying to pass the check
was found also to have another check
for $535 on his person, police said.
The two men are being held on al,
open charge.
The prowler arrested shortly be-
fore last midnight is a 24-year -old

increased to 2.700 as the strike
spread to the Standard Oil refinery
at Lima. Five other reflneries were
closed in the State and gas supplies
were scarce.
$500 Out in Detroit.
Some $500 oil workers were out
in Detroit and gasoline deliveries to
the city were completely shut off,
threatening transportation break
down. Supplies also were running
low in numerous Texas cities.
In the Chicago area, seven plants
were closed at East Chicago, Whit
ing and Hammond. Ind. More than
5000 workers were made idle d.
rectly while another 1000 in affili-
ated industries also were without
work
JAWS decision to act first at Gen.
eral Motors was a strategic" one
based on the fact that it is the
largest of the auto companies and
the belief of union officials that if
demands are won from GIN the rest
of the industry will fall in line.
Ford Already Closed.
The Ford Co. already has been
closed by an authorized strike of the
JAW local at the Kelsey Hayes
Wheel Co., and stoppages in other
supplying plants. Issues at Kelsey
Hayes still were unsettled last night.
Also closed was Chrysler's Dodge
truck plant. The management sent
1900 workers home Thursday be-
cause, it explained, of labor troubles
among its suppliers. Friday it
closed the plant asserting that
pickets of UAW-CIO Local 140 had
prevented 500 other workers from
reporting for duty.
Other labor troubles kept 10000
workers on strike at Ford's plant at
Windsor. Canada; $500 idle at the
Hudson Motor Car Co., 5000 out at
Murray Corp, of America and
smaller numbers at numerous. plants.

New York City was threatened by

The action quelled rebellion that
