Compromise Rent Biz
May Let Cities Vote on
Curbs After Jan. |
BY RE Assecie,ed Press

The administration was re-
ported ready today TO back
compromise continuing rent con-
trols only where cities vote posi-
lively before January ! to re-
tain such ceilings.
Confirming the general terms
OF the proposed bill, Chairman
Mayoank refused to predict
whether the Senate Banking
Committee will approve it or any
other rent control measure.
Senate Majority Leader Lucas
and his assistant. Senator Myers
of Pennsylvania. have offered q
measure for a fat years exten-
sion of the present rent control
law which expires June 30.
The prospects for this bill
looked 50 poor to Democratic lieu
tenants that Senators Lucas and
Myers were reported to haze
agreed TO offer the compromise
proposal in the hope that rent
controls could be retained in some
large cities where State or local
ceilings otherwise would not DO
in effect,
The idea behind the compro-
mise: Congress would vote a six-
month extension TO next jan
uary /. Those cities that wanted
to continue them past that date
would have TO vote to do so, those
that didn't could end them when
they wished.
Although Senator Bricker. Re-
publican, of Ohio said he will flgat
any kind of rent control bill. there
were reports that Senator Taft OF
Ohio. chairman of the COP Pol
icy Committee, might be willing
to 60 along with the compromise.
Senator Taft was said by
friends to feel that the Republi-
cans ought not to put themselves
in the party position of opposing
rent ceilings in the ig-city areas
and give President Truman a
chance TO talk about this in the
congressional campaign.
Senator Bricker told a reporter
he doesn't think rent controls will
be needed anywhere after June 30.
Senator Maybank said he won't
make up his mind on the issue
until after he has heard teSti.
mony in four days of hearings ar
ranged by the Banking Commit
tee for April 24-28. Senators
Lucas and Myers will testify then.
