Pat and Harry
See Eye to Eye
“President Truman has made
up his mind to do something
about $1 butter and 95c eggs.
Good! Pm not a butter and
egg man but in my own' small
way Pm also doing something
about the high cost of living.
Take my clothing, for example.
Priced low to start with, be
cause of a low overhead, Pm
instituting an additional dis
count to help the cause along. Besides, I like action.
Would rather make a lot of friends at a couple of
dollars a suit, than sit around all day looking at
rack after rack of Nailheads, Sharkskins, Coverts,
Flannels, Tweeds and what-not.”

1 local advisory boards established in
i ;| each defense rental area have had
' ; little opportunity thus far to do
anything except organize and study
the rental picture.
The boards, named by Mr. Creed
on on recommendation of the gov
i ernors of the States, are authorized
to (1) recommend blanket ceiling
! revisions, either upward or down
ward in their areas, (2) recommend
re decontrol of all or a portion of their
t_ areas, and (3) review hardship
y cases, either before or after an
n appeal to the local rent adminls
j trator.
sr | One Recommendation Made.
e Only one recommendation for re
vision of rental ceilings has been
made to Mr. Creedon’s office, but it
has not been made public pending a
policy decision by Mr. Creedon
whether to disclose such recommen
dations when they are received or
only after they have been acted on.
Under the new law, Mr. Creedon
has 30 days in which to approve or
reject recommendations or to notify
the local board that he needs more
information.
Meanwhile the official in Mr.
Creedon's office said there has been
a drop in the number of rent in
crease leases registered with the
expediter's office. The law permits
increases up to 15 per cent pro
vided the tenant voluntarily agrees
to a lease extending through 1943.
Mr. Creedon announced on Sep
tember 8 that such leases had been
filed On 964.000 riwpllinff unite nr
about 6 per cent of the 15,700,000
units subject to Federal control.
Peak Reached In August.
The peak was reached during the
second week in August when 192,000
new leases were registered. It fell
off to 116,000 for the last week in
August and indications are that the
the rate for September will be even
lower, Mr. Creedon’s aide added.
This decline apparently can be at.
tributed, he said, to the fact that
in some areas landlords offered the
leases only if the tenants would sign
by August 1 or September 1. This
provisions gave the landlords the
advantage of higher rents for a
longer period; the law requires only
that they be signed no later than
December 31.
The housing official estimated that
advisory boards in about 525 of the
country’s 611 rental areas, have been
fully organized. There was a delay
in a few cases because Mr. Creedon
asked the Governors to submit new
names in areas where the original
ones did not appear to be repre
sentative of all interests concerned.
