Republican Attacks On Rent Control

Some of our statesmen in Washington are fond of point-

g nut that a reduction m the cost of living is equivalent to

age boost. But there is a rowins effort to nermit livins

ixus ro go up, at least temporarily, oj .throwing remaining OPjA controls out the window. Chief target is regulation of rens.

rroposais ay Kepuoncan senators vary irom1 a tlat increase in rent. ceilings (up to 20peicent) to abolition of controls. The latter, proposals mention varying dates,irom April, 1947, to the summer, of 1948. So far these -Republican senators have not been able to get together on dates and specifications. But attention is being focused on a possible compromise, which has three sponsors. Two of them, Williams of Delaware and Watkins of Utah, are fieshmen senators,, and ideas offered by newcomers of'ten fail to attract. marked attention. But the third sponsor ii Wherry of Nebraska, majority party floor leadeivwho led the successful fight to strip OPA of most of its powers in the last Congress. In view of Wherry's backing, the public should note details of this proposal, which the United Press sumnuaizes as fellows: ; .. 1. Wipe out remaining features of the price control act April 30. In addition to rent control, -this would involve sufi'ar rationing and price controls on rice unless Congress exempted them. .1.. 2. Leave it up to he states to put state-wide rent conI trol programs into effect if they desire. .

3. Direct the. Off ice of Temporary Controls, which, now lias jurisdiction over OPA, to. turn its. rent files over to state

governors on request. 4. Permit states to take overrent, control. before April , .'SO if their legislatures enact necessary enabling statutes. , This gesture of turning over rent control to the-states

is not, as magnanimous as the Kepuohcans may wish 'us to

eneve. Asme.irom JNew York, which backstopped Congress jy setting up a "little OPA," the states now offer little piocct.on lor tenants. Althouglumpst of the 48 legislatures are

'many of fliem could act effectively before April 30, and considerably niore time might be required to set up the .necessary machinery. Florida's legislature does not convene until April. - ; This scheme would mean also a battle in each state between real estate interests and property owners, on the one hand, and tenants, on the other. The initial advantage would

Doctor's Discovery FOR FLUSHING KIDNEYS Backache, loss of pep, getting up nights, and headache are often caused by nothing more than improper kidney action due. to excess acid in the urine. Kidneys are one of Nature's ways of removing impurities from the blood. And when these impurities back up, trouble may start. So if you have these troubles, give your kidneys and bladder a good flushing out by taking Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root. It works on the kidneys to flush them out, increasing the flow of urine to help relieve that excess acidity and ease that burning when vou oass water. helDS that bladder

MOTORISTS IGNORE FREEZING FAMILY AFTER CAR

STALLS After nine automobiles passed them on .U. S. 20 near

South Bend without stopping yesterday as they sought aid in belowzero cold, a father, mother and 19-month-old son were taken to a Mishawaka hospital. Mrs. Robert. Snyder, 19, ,was reported recover

ing from frozen legs and exposure and her 22-year-o!d husband and

small son were treated for exposure. They made their way to the highway to seek aid after their au-' tomobile stalled in a snowdrift, they told hospital authorities, but automobile drivers passing would not heed their cries. They were taken to the hospital after they staggered into a farmhouse following a mile-and-a-half walk.

' President Truman, in blocking a recent OTC move to put across a flat 10 per cent raise in rent ceilings, laid down the sound principle that increases in the near .future should be limited 'to cases in which landlords could prove "hardship." In accordance with, this principle, he should veto the Republican proposal if it gets as far as the White House.

In fact, she says she has thrown her cane away. This lady had to stay in the house for weeks at a time, unable to get .oxit much. Rheumatic pains centered in the joints of her knees snd -ankles. She says she felt stiff all over. But in less than a week's time, when she started taking RHU-AID, the awful rheumatic pains disappeared Irom her legs and ankles. She is well and happy today and says she wouldn't take a fortune for the relief RHU-AID has given her. RHU-AID is the ' new liquid formula containing three valua

ble medical ingredients. - These '

We stepped off onto a sandbar to discuss the plan and while we were there, Carter was rowed out by a native. Carter had his guitar with him And he began ragging Ralls, composing a song about the blocking of the lagoon. "Enough," Ralls said. But Carter wouldn't stop. When he sang of Teleia, Ralls rose suddenly and fliterally jerked Carter up. He threw a right that caught Carter's jaw and sent him, and guitar, six feet out into the water. I rebelled at Rails' high-handed methods of settling tlungs. I heard my own voice in anger, "Kails, you're answering to me for that!" - - (Continued tomorrow)
