Cases to Be Decided On Their Merits

By NED BROOKS Scripps-Howard Staff Writer

WASHINGTON, July 16.~Fed-

the last word on lifting controls in the 614 areas still subject to regulation. This policy emerged today out of the confusion over powers of the new local boards created by congress under:the law extending rent controls to next March 1. Congress specified that thd local boards were to be “advisory” but at the same time it directed the federal administrator to adopt) their recommendations if these | were “appropriately substantiated") and in accordance with law. Three Subjects Involved Among some authorities, this was construed as giving local boards what amounted to final authority over these matters: ONE: Decontrol of the area in| whole or part. TWO: Across-the-board- increases in an area. THREE: Other policy decisions) including adjustment of hardship cases. The theory that the boards’ power was more than “advisory” 1 stered by congress’ declaration that “the granting of riecessary adjustments, so far as practicable, shall | be made by local boards with a minimum of control by any central agency.” Decision on Merits Attorneys for the office of housing expediter, however, interpret the law to mean that each recommendation of a.local board is to be weighed on its merits, with the agency under no obligation to approve it automatically. Whether the recommendation is" “appropriately -substantiated” they point out, is left to the agency's decision. The confusion arose chiefly from congress’ effort to write a compro-|

mise on conflicting “home rule” provisions inserted by the house and senate.

The house version gave any local subdivision the power to end rent control at any time it desired. The senate bill would have ended federal rent control in any state which adopted its own rent law. Within 30 Days In final form, the law provided for a board of five or more “representative citizens” in each of the

® Ask the old-timers at Capitol Motors — they've fixed ‘em before. They repaired the first chain drive, the wooden fenders, the éngine-under-the-seat on the Reo Runabout. They've worked on wire wheels, wood artillery wheels, solid rubber tires and the revolutionary inflated tires. They didn’t stop when the Stanley Steamer came Cong, or the Maxwell or the Marmon. They worked through the period of the Stutz Bearcat, the White, then the famous Essex. They mastered, one by one, the complications of free. wheeling, knee-action, hydraulic brakes and all the hundreds of preventent made on automobiles year after year.

Today, many of them still are working at Capitol Motors—and they're up-to-date with the answer to every mechanical problem on even the lgtest models. Automobiles are their business, and they know their business completely. And that's why, when you take your car or truck to Capitol Motors, you get reliable, thorough workmanship. These men, who've been working with Capitol for 10, 15, 25 years or more are truly ‘motive experts.
