who cannot pay top rates should be the ones squeezed back into crowded quarters. Tt is a sort of callous way of looking at it, I admit" Founda- ton spokesman said.
 END MUST COME GRADUALLY
 A spokesman for the National Home and Property Foundation has said, But of course we realize the end of rent control must come grad ually because the nations millions of tenants would not stand it all al once"
 We believe that they cannot and will not stand for exorbitant in- creases. Even at the present level of rents, the tenants are hard pressed. According to an Army sur- vey made at various separation cen- ters, more than half of the veterans estimated that they would be un- able to pay over $50 monthly for housing. Yet under $50 rental units are only approximately 1870 of the total.
 Franklin D. Roosevelt IT,, housing chairman of the American Veterans Committee, has urged veterans groups and others to campaign locally for municipal and state emergency rent control measures, saying that with controls removed, the average veteran would put out almost one-ha1f his in come for rent"

controls will result in sizab1e pro- portion of tenants being completely at the mercy of certain interruptions landlords, rents raised and reraised, tripling and quadrup1ing of some land lords profits, and untold hardships as a result of wholesale evictions.
 There is every reason to believe that conditions prevailing directly after World War I, at which time there were no rent controls, will again occur if rent controls are abolished.
 According to statistics, taken from the National Industrial Con- ference Board, rents increased l5O percent from 1914 to 1920. Most of the increase occurred in the two years after the Armistice.
 Even after the 1921 depression had set in, rent increases continued Many landlords refused to give leases, so that new increases could be demanded by the month instead of by the year.
 There were evictions by the thou sands. Some 5000 eviction cases a month were brought before the courts of one burough of New York City, and 100000 in September, when leases expired. Thousands of homeless fami- lies took refuge in churches or in tents provided by the Army.
 Little businessmen also suffered with rent increases of from 100 to 300 percent heaped upon storekeepers and loft tenants. Real Estate speculators and rulers of the mortgage credit mar ket prospered enormously.

 MT. Senior said that contributions to- the P.A.C. treasury are greater than two years ago, but still do not represent any vast amount.
 "The big money in election cam paigns," he said, comes from re- actionary big business and 1t goes to help reactionary candidates. Contri- buttons from P.A.C. are onlysa small factor in political finances"
 The state C.I.O.-P.A.C. has en- dorsed the top Democratic candi- dates, including Lieutenant-G Cover nor Wilbert L. Snow for governor and Joseph M. Tone for U. s. Sena- tor. The 5th District unit of the state organization has given its blessing to Thomas Radzevich, Democratic can- didate for congress.
