Mr.. Thompson. 1--WE are contin-
ually publicizing the main points
about rent control and we have
fact sheets at the rent office that
landlords and tenants may have
without cost. Nevertheless, many
questions are answered be t
through personal interview. We
find that people often feel better
about having their problems set
tied in this way"
If tenant is living on a farm
and spends most Of his time farm
ing, the housing in which he lives
is exempt from rent control under
the current law.
But the law also says in order
10 be exempt from rent control
regulations, the dwelling unit must
be occupied by person who spends
most Of his time farming, accord
ing to the federal official.
In many instances, the letter Of
the law must be spelled out to
avoid any mistakes as to its OPP
GRAFTON.
The housing facilities, for ex-
ample, given employees or servants
on their employers property are
unaffected by rent control, if these
employees are working only for the
purpose Of rendering services in
connection with the premises. I'm
affected by rent control laws also
are most housing Accommodations in
a summer resort community from
June ! 70 September Of each year,
Mr.. Thompson said his office
personnel is too small to permit
investigation of rentals unless spe-
requested-but empha-
sized that he wants people to task
the rent control office" and prom
ises to give service wherever pos
sible.
