.Cogswell Denounces
MiIIer's Campaign
AGAINST Rent Office

Rent Control Administrator
Robert F. Cogswell today de-
Tended his Office against what he
termed "a campaign Of viltfica-
ton" by Kirk Miller, public re-
lations counselor and landlord. :.
Mr.. Miller last month an-
nounced he would ignore a ruling
fixing a SITS ceiling on a house
at 2120 Tunlaw road NV. which
he wanted to rent for $3.50. Later,
Mr.. Miller requested the Com
missioners to launch an investi.
cation Of the Rent Office.
Mr.. Miller complained the rent
administration failed to give him
adequate notice of a motion to
intervene in a case he brought in
small claims court to recover adj
ditional rent on the house. Mr..
Miller lost the case.
Mr.. Cogswell told the city heads
that Mr.. Miller's case had been
given two hearings by the rent
Office. He also presented an afti-
davit to show that a copy Of the
motion to intervene in the court
case was delivered to Mr.. Miller's
Office the day before the case
was heard.
The Commissioners asked Mr..
Cogswell to find out from Ernest
F. Williams, general counsel for
the rent Office, exactly what was
said in court regarding the rent
Office motion.
Mr.. Cogswell also told the Com
missioners that Mr.. Miller did not
avail himself Of an opportunity
to have the case reviewed through
appeal to the Municipal Court Of
Appeals.
