Provisions OF Rent
Law Are Explained
(cOntinueu lrOm iirst pager


II the notice is a proper one and
the tenant refuses to move, the
landlord may proceed in local
court to get a court order requir-
ing the eviction. In the Certificate
type case it means that the land
lord must obtain a certificate from
the rent Office which authorizes
him to start eviction proceedings
against the tenant.
But in any event." the Area
Rent Director emphasized, "a ten
ant living in a dwelling under rent
stabilization cannot be evicted un-
less the accommodation he is living
in has been properly registered at
the area rent Office"
The most usual cases in which
the notice action is used are the
following: The tenant has failed to
pay the rent when due; he has
committed a nuisance; he has con-
tinued to violate a substantial OBJ
legation of his rental agreement
even after being asked in writing
to stop; he has used the property
for illegal or immoral purposes; he
has unreasOnably refused the land
lord access to the property or his
lease has expired and he has entire
ly sublet the accommodation with
out the prior approval of the land
lord.
Grounds on which certificates
are granted by the area rent Office
are numerous. The most common
are two: The landlord wishes to
use the dwelling unit for himself
or his parent or child or he wishes
substantially to alter or improve
the property and this cannot prac-
tically be done with tenant living
in it.
OF course it is important to bear
in mind that if a landlord fails to
comply with the regulations and
unlawfully evicts a tenant, he may
subject himself to a suit for dam
ages by the tenant.
Landlords who are not certain
about the eviction provisions,
should not hesitate to seek advice
at the rent Office located at 203

Restaurant prices and OPS staff
cuts were top news during the last

isSconcerned.
Willard d. BOyce, state OPS di-
rector, said that more than 20 res
taurants throughout the state are
seeking increased prices-and that
Is applications for menu price ad-
justments have been granted in the
past three months. He added that
only increased food costs during
the fOur7mOnth, period prior to
April 1st may be reflected in any
adjustments, and that approval of
OPS must be given in all cases. He
also pointed out that the applica-
tions received represent only a
small percentage of the states more
than 1000 restaurants.
The news about OPS staff cuts
in Delaware was the so percent re-
ductiOn in personnel due to a de-
crease in appropriation for the fed
eral price agency. Mr.. Boyce said,
however, that the agency still is
very much in operation, but he ex-
planned that the half-staff that will

Kent Rains Cause
Fear For Late Crops
CONTINUED nom first paes,

The rains in Kent County last
Friday cut deep gullies in highway
shoulders, threatened some high
ways, turned other roads into gush-
ing streams and transformed low
lying fields into sizable lakes.
The worst damage was in the
Magnolia area, about seven miles
south of Dover. Along U. S. Route
11S-A, shoulder washouts were
hume aOus, with one literally OF
cave-in proportions, on the east
shoulder a short distance south OF
the town.
A deep cut was dug by the rush
ing water in the road shoulder in
front of the Magnolia Methodist
Church at the north edge of the
town, almost to a point of under
mining the highway.
Other WashOut
All along the highway from just
south of Dover to Little Heaven
south Of the junction Of u. S. Routes
1l3 and 113-A below Magnolia
there were washouts of lesser con-
sequence, with earth from the
shoulders and fields washed on to
the road.
Even as the rain was slackenine
about 4 p. m, the west side of the
highway at Little Heaven, near the
/ Bowers Beach Road intersection
was still flooded.
Residents of the Magnolia area
characterized the downpour as the
heaviest in memory-even heavier
than the one of several weeks age
which came suddenly with an cleo
trio storm.
The lakes formed in many fields
were said to have been knee-deep
and they spread over many acres in
the low section.
In Dover, firemen of the Robbins
Hose Company were called to pump
from three to four feet of water
from the boiler room at the Kent
General Hospital and from four tC
five feet from the basement of the
Matthews Motor Co., at South Gov
ernors Avenue and South Street

making a new try at getting some
new swimming pools.
Two pools have been on paper

and improve a number of others.
$4,740,625 Total Request.
Eight new recreation supervisors

|ated for the current year.
The proposed budget is for the
fiscal year starting next July. 1t
was made public today by the
Commissioners. It's still subject
to possible slashes.
Washington hasn't had any new
public pools since the early 1930s.
One Of the two would be at Ran
dali Recreation Center. next to
Randall Junior High at First and
I streets Sc. The other would be
at Fort Reno, between Wilson and
Alice Deal Junior High in the
upper Northwest. Randall is a
Negro neighborhood. Fort Reno
white.
Both pools would be year. round.
A sliding roof would cover each in
winter.
Shelter Buildings Planned.
New shelter buildings would
cost $850,000. They would be at
these centerS: Brentwood Village.
Dakota, Deanwood. Emery, Fort
Stevens. Fort Chaplin, Forest Hills,
Friendship. Hamilton. Lafayette.
Livingston, Macomb, Reservoir.
Riggs road, Trinidad and Van
IBuren.
The Emery, Fort Chaplin, Fort
Stevens, Forest Hills, Livingston.
Reservoir, Trinidad and Van
Buren areas are new. Other new
ones proposed for development are
Fort Reno. Hawthorne and La
lmond.
A $175,000 gymnasium for Pali-
sades Park Is a major item. An
other is renovation of the audi
torium and second floor of the
Chevy Chase Community Center,
costing 100000.
Night lights are proposed for
the Taft, Hearst, Kelly Miller,
Sousa and Hillcrest Fairgrounds
and the courtyard at the Chevy
Chase center. Only one city play
ground has night lights now. Cost
of the additions would be $1O5, 900.
The department wants to re-
habilitate Banneker, Coolidge,
Garfield, Georgetown, Jefferson,
Langley, Lincoln and Park View
areas.
Only $3.50 was appropriated
for the current years capital i'm

17.-Ira S. Bushey is racing
against time.
He has until 6 pm. (EST) Sum-
day to raise the sunken tanker
F. L. Hayes from the bottom of
the Chesapeake and Delaware
Canal.
The deadline was set by Army
Engineers, concerned over what
the Steamship Association of
Baltimore calls critical ship
ping situation. The engineers
told Mr.. Bushey that. if the gaso-
line-laden tanker isn't raised by
Sunday night, she will be blown
to bits to clear the channel to
other shipping.
Early this week, Ira Bushey &

and that their workers refused to

Mr.. Bushey negotiated unsuc-

The Hayes is laden with $4,000
gallons of gasoline. To salvage

Various studies are now under

II think it is certain that the

that's feasible" the Senator said
Under study is the use Of River

highway into the District. the
Senator said.
Senator Hyde said tentative

IF we had effective regiona'
