0PA Is RecIassifying
100000 Landlords;
Rent Increase Hinted

Carrying out a congressional
directive, OPA put more than
100000 operators of hotels and
rooming houses on notice today
that they must file new data
with their local rental Offices
by the end of the year.
These establishments will be
classed separately as transient no.
tells, residential hotels, rooming
houses or motor courts. Their sepa-
ration from other rental units was
viewed by members of Congress who
supported the directive as possible
means for more easily qualifying
them rent increases or decontrol.
OPP, however, gave no indication
as to whether any general relaxa-
tons are contemplated.
Members of Congress who Spon-
sored the provision in the new law
noted that certain segments might
be able to qualify for increases or
termination of rent ceilings more
easily than the group as whole.
Meanwhile, oPA's decision last
week to extend rent control to 88
areas of the country was assailed
yesterday by Arthur w. Binns,
president of the National Home and
Property Owners Foundation, as a
step toward the Specialization of our
economy" He said the action will
only make the shortage of rental
housing more acate."
In another action, OPA allowed
some increase in price ceilings of
certain cotton textile commodities if
they are staples produced in the
same style as in March, 1912.
The agency said the amount of
increase could not be estimated, but
would apply to printed tablecloths,
tufted bedspreads, domestic laun-
dry bags, hooded pillow covers, mat
tress covers, ironing board covers
and similar iteroc

Established La1Us
By the Rev Hubert r. Spence,
Bishop at Large, the PentecostaI Holiness Church

have orderly business relations In
proportion to our obedience to these
established and necessary laws.
Virtue well rewards her followers.
In mathematics we have an estab-
lished multiplication table, not be-
cause some one ,or ones decided to
impose this upon us, but simply be-
cause two plus two equals four. Prove
It: Put up two fingers. then two
more. and the total Is four every
times Not even college professor
would dare question the established
findings Of mathematical science. We
accept the arithmetic book because
its figures have been tested thor
oughly by the preceding generations.
Well, the Ten Commandments are
older than our books of arithmetic.
and the Bible is far more perfect in
its moral teachings than any science
textbook. Why will people so foolish
ly disregard It's truth. its admoni-
ton, Its way Of life that offers peace?
N xk
The laws Of chemistry declare that
fire win burn the human body; even
so will the fires Of hatred and lust
consume our spiritual and moral be-
ing. Why not abstain from moral
wrong with as much consistency as
we stay away from consuming
flames?
In biology We accept without ques-
tion the fact that like begets like"
Why should we question the teach
ing Of Christ relative to the spiritual
birth? Sound logic declares that a
spiritual birth is as necessary to
spiritual life as a natural birth is
to natural life.
The law of arbitration is one of
the essential factors in any ciyiliza-
ton. Lifting this law to its highest
possible form we have the glorious
gospel of Christ as the Mediator be-
tween the Holy God and sinful man;
also in reconciling man to man.
Will the cropping representatives Of
the world heed the words of Quo
Taichi Of China, who told the dele
gates at the closing session of the
Paris Peace Conference that: "It Is
now time for the ideals of Western
Christianity to be accepted by all
nations and all men,?
Why the teachings of Christ?
Simply because all other ideoiogies
and systems have failed miserably.
Christianity is the only remaining
hope for the world, but the fulfill
ment Of its hope lies first in ac-
cepting the person of Christ, then in
practicing His precepts.
Whether individually or universal
ly, 1t Is either Christ or chaos.
