Is there any remedy for the ten
ants of nn apartment house who are
suffering continually because of the
absolute lndlffereifl'e on the part of
the owner regarding their rights as
renters, especially regarding the mat
ter of bent? At present there is no
janitor, the last one having left his
Job In dispust, und no new one has
been employed, although several days
have elapsed since the last one left.
When the apartment was purchased
In September last no provision was
made for coal for the winter, and the
owner only allows about a load to
be delivered at a time. When this is
exhausted there Is always a lapse of
from one to three days before an
other one arrives, meanwhile the ten
ants having to depend upon gas
grates and kitchen ranges for heat,
which Is far from being adequate. Is
there any legal way, or otherwise, of
compelling the owner to furnish reg
ular heat? A TENANT.
There is always an implied covenant
which runs between landlord and'ten
ant that the landlord will not do any
thing which will render the occupation of
the premises by this tenant Impossible or
unreasonably uncomfortable.
Constructive eviction from the prop
erty may ensue. By constructive eviction
Is meant anything that makes It practi
cally impossible for the tenant to occupy
the property, although he may not ac
tually be ousted. A tenant must not,
therefore, In order not to waive evic
tion. reside on the prdtnlses without
notifying the landlord of any uncom
fortable conditions which may exist on
said premises.
I,tying in an apartment house under
such conditions is truly an ordeal that
would not be conducive to good health

Is now provided by law. A tenant might

other media of “selling” a business, no
matter how Inrge or small, to the world.
ALL SORTS OF
ADS TO BE SHOWN.
The exhibits will not bo confined strictly
to advertising used in the United States.
Newspaper advertisements, magazine ad

will make up the displays.
Under the dome of the statehouse
three complete national campaigns of ad
vertising will be shown and the men re

According to Charles Henry Mackintosh
of Chicago, chairman of the national ex

payment of next month's rent until such
unhealthful conditions were remedied,
but the landlord might bring ejectment
proceedings. Os course, such proceedings
could be answered by a suit by tenant
for breach of contract, said contract be
ing the aforesaid covenant, which runs
between the landlord and tenant.
Withholding rent though is retallla

remedy, therefore. Is to bring suit for
breach of contract, or move out of the

In a ninety-nine year lease where
a building is pledged, what is the
nature of the bond dually exacted?
C. H. J.
The bond required on a ninety nine
year lease to secure the pledge of a
building, would depend almost entirely !
upon the securities or collateral tho
lessee would be able to put up to secure
the bond itself. A business transaction
t)f this kind Is so very important that
It would be most advisable for the pros
pective lessee to secure the services of
a reputable attorney.
REAL ESTATE x
GOSSIP
By ‘AL’ EVANS
John Robbins was beard from again
last Wednesday.
William S. Allen has his office 1n the
Human Sewer building, so be says.
Even our real estate men of known
ability get stung at times when buying
property. Ask Bert Essex and Fete Balz
about some of their experiences.
Those Shakers that Egbert told us
about don't know what they hare missed
during a lifetime.
The water glasses used at the luncheon
this week reminded some of tho realtors
of times a couple years now past.
We had tomatoes for desert this week
instead of the customary beans or peas.
I didn’t know bow poor I was until I
heard Egbert tell that the Cleveland peo
ple of moderate means had homes valued
at from SIO,OOO to $30,000.
Along with being denied the directors’
room for luncheon on Wednesday, the
Chamber of Commerce has started serv
ing cold lunches to the real estate hoard.
We changed meeting days in order to
have the larger room and In appreciation
of our doing this at their request they
now serve us a cold lunch.
A salesman representing a local firm
called at Walter White's office a few days
ago and inquired for a party that worked
for a certain ‘‘reality’’ company. I
would suggest the local board conduct
a class to educate a part of tho public
to read correctly and then pronounce
correctly
Wha-de-mean? Ordinary circum
stances. Say that man Egbert sure talks
like a senator on n harbor bill.
Sing a song of selling homes
A salesman on the run.
But when he gets the prospect "on,” j
They haven’t got the “mun.”
What we need is homes, more homes,
most homes. There Is a decided shortage
of homes in Indianapolis and no pros
pects at this time of any relief We are
growing so rapidly that Mr Worthing
ton’s prediction of 1.000,000 in 1930 be
gins to look like a reality. Our Indus
trial outlook is unusually brlnght. New
enterprises being established, old ones
expanding, a constant demand for more
Industrial sites, homes and apartments.
All these signs indicate our growth, and
when we study our location and all the
advantages we have over other cities we
can not fail to realize that the future of
Indianapolis is bound to be one of pros
perity and great Increase in population.
Real Estate Board membership re
quires honesty, efficiency, co-operation
and fairness in dealings with owners and
purchasers.
We realtors deal with a class of prop
erty old as creation—Mother Earth—* |
without which mankind could not# exist.
Our profession to assist in the proper- i
tionlng of the earth among its occupants
—is an honorable one. As population In
creases the Importance of the real estate
profession will Increase. It Is for us to
act well our parts.
Congress is discussing a federal 1 per
cent tax on all the real estate in the
Fnited States for the purpose of raising,
necessary revenue. Poor old real estate.
this year will be the most educational
ever arranged.
EVERYBODY WILL
BE INTERESTED.
“The exhibits will not be for the ad
vertising men alone, by any means," Mr.
Mackintosh said. "Business men, manu
facturers. merchants and every man who
used advertising in his business, will de
rive many real benefits from these ex
hibits. They will unquestionably get a
broader view of advertising which should
be of great aid to them in their business
life.”

HEALTH BOARD
OFFICESECURE
Secretary Can’t Be Removed,
Says Attorney General.
The state board of health can not re
move its secretary during the term for
which he was elected, according to an
opinion of EJo Stansbury, attorney gen
eral. The opinion was written at the re
quest of Dr. J. N. Hurty, secretary of
the board.
Rumor* have been current for some
time that Dr Hurty and Dr. William
F. King, assistant secretary of the
board, were to be removed. Dr. Hurty
was reappointed last April for a four
year term.' Since that time his health
has been failing and this was said to
have much to do with the rumored plans
to remove him. Some of the members of
the board, however, have denied suen a
proposal. Dr. Hurty lias been secretary
of the board for twenty-four years.
“The secretary of the state board of
health having been appointed for a term
of four years, as fixed by statute, and the
law not conferring on tho board the
power of removing said secretary, it is
my opinion that the board can not re
move him from office and as a member
of the board of health during the period
for which he had been ejected,” the opin
ion says ;

CHARITY BOARD
REPORT URGES
NEWREFORMS
Recommends New Home for
Department Children and
Unpaid Trustees.
PRAISES FARM COLONY
The state board of charities will ask
the next legislature for the enactment of
laws providing for anew home for de
pendent children, unpaid boards of
trustees of state institutions, and the ex
tension of the farm colony plan to the in
sane hospitals and the institutions for
feeble minded, according to a report of
Amos AV. Butler, secretary of the board.
The report urges a central receiving
home for dependent children, stating that
the thirty-three institutions now caring
for them cannot give the proper training.
The board points out that dependent
children are now committed to private In
stltutions which are paid per diem for
their care. It points to the success of the
proposed plan in other states and recalls
the fact that the 1913 legislature pro
vided for such a home, but failed to make
any appropriation for its establishment
or maintenance.
ASKS BOARDS TO
SERVE WITHOUT. PAY.
The board strongly recommends that
all boards of state institutions *hall
serve without pay. Most of the board
members, with the exception of members
of the board of trustees of the penal
farm, who serve without pay, receive
S3OO a year.
The report at the same time recom
mends additional appropriations for
traveling expenses for board members in
order that they can more adequately
carry out the work of conducting the
state institutions.
The extension of the farm colony plan
|is given in the report as tho most
! adequate remedy for the present crowded
I condition of insane hospitals. The board
does not approve the enlargement of the
j existing hospitals or the construction of
anew hospital. The board points out
that the hospitals are crowded with
persons suffering from both acuta and
chronic Insanity and that there is no
opportunity for the proper classification
of patients and that therefore the re
covery of curable patients is retarded.
OPPOSES ADDITIONS
TO STATE SCHOOL.
The care of the feeble minded by the
farm colony plan is urged by the board.
.The board does not approve of any ad
ditions to the school for feeble-minded
at Ft. Wayne.
The report also suggests legislation to
prevent the abandonment of dependent
I parents by children who are able to snp
port them, an indeterminate sentence law
for misdemeanants; appropriations for
patrol agents; appropriations to permit
judges to visit penal institutions; the
abolishment of the fee system In connec
tion with county jaiis, and the placing of
the educational work in state Institutions
under the supervision of the state depart
ment of public instruction.
