Ill- i"ari> to TNi Trihue ? | London, Nov. 25. The government took the first step te-day toward end? ing one ot' the deepest seated griev of the win-, when Walter Long, president of the Local Government Board, introduced t,he war rents bill in the House of Commons. As was cabled to The Tribune on October 12. II and I '.. wverol landlords, especially those in munitions areas. look advantage of the war sitOOtiOO to increase rents in the cheapest class of houses, pleading the) .'-ore compelled to do so on Bl "int of the increased income tax. Feeling ha.? run dangerously high in many districts, and consequently Mr. Long, who -.'eral ?une? has de? nounced attempts of one section of the commuait] to pass on the war burdens to those below, promised to introduce (..-day's bill. He told the House ef Commons that, although the question w.i> urgent in certain districts, yet the pra'tice of rent raising wasn't very widespread. In some munition areas, he said, rent raising had produced a, very deep feeling of bitterness and re -'titineiit, uliic" ara* dangerous to so ..'.'! ought to he removed. The n?'W bill would apply to Lon dofl and ether district* with a popula? tion exceeding lud,'Kin, or aleas where, owing to an influx in th-i' population attributable to war, there was insuf? ficient housing accommod.it ion. The bill would apply to rents not exceeding I1M in London and SlO.'i elsewhere, antl the effect would be to make all in? crease? above pre-war rents irrecover abl i, So as no: to prejudice the small landlords the bill would forbid in-' creased interest on mortgages and would restrict foreclose.**. i be d?bet* following Mr. Long'? i 'lain i v -i.-voted to the que*- - ?io., ..f detail, practically the an tire House favoring the proposal.
