Resort Area Rent
Changes Explained
Maryland OPA Rent Control
Office Authorizes Some In
Creases.

The Maryland OPA State Office
calls attention to several changes in
rent control regulations, the most
important of which is one designed
to provide relief for landlords in
resort areas who, during war, rented
seasonal units on year round basis
to war workers. The changes be-
came effective May 81 The OPA
State office statement said:
eff year round demand is no long
er sufficient to assure continuous &C.
cupancy, landlords will be permitted
to have seasonal rents established
where the units were rented on a
year-round basis at a fixed rate on
the date determining the maximum
rent. This change applies only to
resort areas where defense activities
before the maximum rent date re-
suited in living units essentially sea-
sonal being rented on a year round
basis"
OPA explained that in some re-
sort areas it has been difficult to
rent certain units on a year-round
basis since the end of the war. In
these cases the area rent director
may now establish rents for these
units on a seasonal pattern if they
are vacant at the time the appli-
cation for the change is made. How
ever, OPA emphasized that in all
cases where year-round demand for
the particular units is sufficiently
acute to assure year round occu-
pancy at fixed level rent the change
will not be permitted.
In another change, the OPA Rent
Division will require a landlord de-
string to evict a tenant in the future
on grounds for which no certificate
is necessary, not only to serve notice
on the tenant and OPA of the ground
under rent regulations on which he
desires to evict, but also to list
specific facts to show existence of
the ground. The landlord cannot
simply quote from the regulation the
ground on which his action is based,
but also must supply data to sup
port his charge. This will enable the
area rent office to review most
notices without contracting the land
lord for more information before
determining if the eviction is per-
mitted by the regulations, OPA
said.
In addition, authority has been
delegated to the Federal Housing
Administration to establish rents on
newly constructed units built under
that agency's authorization but with
out priority assistance.

DOT Spray To Combat Disease

Several cities in Texas were re-
Gently sprayed with DOT in an
effort to prevent the spread of in
fantile paralysis and sleeping sick
ness which had already cost the
lives of five persons. Schools were
closed in Beneavides and Freer and
children were prohibited from all

DOT spray would kill insects which
were believed to be carriers of the

Local Girl Talks
To Leading Actress
Miss Betty Jane Bupp Inter-
views Catherine Cornell Back
stage.

stage.
When you're a high school Senior,
with your eyes firmly fixed on that
enchantress, the theatre, as a career,
what could be more exciting than
an interview with that great lady
of the American stage, Miss Kath-
crime Cornell?
Obviously nothing - and that's
the way Betty Jane Bupp felt about
it when she sent a note backstage,
before a performance of Candida,
in which Miss Cornell was appearing
in Washington week before last.
In less than no time Miss Cor
nelps. maid appeared and escorted
Betty Jane to the stars dressing
room. The actress, explaining that
she was suffering from the I'M
glamorous ailment of a broken toe,
made her visitor perfectly at home.
She was wearing a black skirt
a blue print blouse, and a pair of
'1oafers" cut out at the seam on the
injured foot. Her only jewelry, Bet
ty Jane reported, was a wide silver
bracelet and a plain gold wedding
ring miss Cornell is the wife of
producers Guthrie McClintic).
While her two dachhunds rotnped
about the dressing room, Miss Cor
nell chatted with Betty Jane about
her own career and Betty James
plans for the future.
"Antigone," which she was also
playing during her stay in Washing
ton, she described as being "the best
thing that I have ever done" She
expressed a hope that all theatre
lovers would see it.
On learning that she was the sub
ject of Betty James English research
paper, Miss Cornell asked for a copy
of it and a letter, and assured her
visitor that when she replied she
would have more advice for her
about her future plans.
The famous Cornell hands, Betty
Jane found particularly impressive
at close range. 1--WE never seen such
rwatiful and expressive hands," she
said, land her nails are so lovely.
She had no varnish on - just clear
polish"
Many people are disappointed in
CornelPs appearance off stage, but
Betty Jane found that her arresting
personality and remarkably warm
and emotional voice, more than made
up for her lack of actual beauty.
Her personality is so vivid and
radiant that she seems beautiful"
Betty Jane said. "She is charming
and gracious.
Betty Jane, who is the daughter
of Mr. and Mrs. c F. Bupp, West
Washington Street, was graduated
from Hagerstown High School on
Wednesday morning. She has been
member of the Radio Workshop
and active in a number Of amateur
theatrical. projects for the past sew
eral years.
She plans to enter dramatic school
in the fall, but she has no illusions
about the long and difficult road to
success in the theatre
IF I find that I can't act" she
says, II plan to major in something
that will at least keep me in touch
with the theatre perhaps speech
or something of that sort"
A sensible approach that will
probably meet with the complete ap-
proval of leading lady, Cornell,
whose long and distinguished career
is no less the product of tremendous
talent, than it is of gruelling work.

President Truman backslid on the
question of enactment of federal
anti-poll tax legislation. At press
conference with IA group of high
school journalists in Chicago re-
Gently, he said the only hope Of
abolishing the poll tax lies in state
action.
While in the Senate and since he
has been President, Mr.. Truman
has favored federal anti-poll tax
legislation. But in Chicago he APP

emasculated his program, killed
FEPC, and threatens another fill

Editor. Note; President Truman has

It's time colored voters of Mary

they're tired of his little game Of
holding with the hounds and run

During the filibuster in the Sen
ate against fair employment prac-
tice legislation after voting to take
up the bill, he aided and abetted
the filibusterers.
His conduct on the HASTE nomi-
nation shows how little honor he
has. As chairman Of the Senate
Territories and lnsular Affairs
committee, Tydings' selection Of
the subcommittee to hold hearings
on the nomination may be skipped.
But Just to keep the record straight
il should be noted that he picked
the only two deep Southerners on
the Ellender Of LouiSi-
ana and Eastland Of Mississippi
while he chose "A Republican from
-Brewster-who has viTtu-
ally no colored constituents.
Il may be that was no Interior

subcommittee. But what excuse
can there be for the manner in
which he aided Eastland in an ef-
fort TO give HASTE a pinkish hue I?
