Predict Truman Will Sign Bill WASHINGTON, March 30 (UP) — Administration leaders predicted today that President Truman would sign the compromise rent control bill, even though it falls far short of his original request. They pointed out that with the present rent law expiring at midnight tomorrow, it is unlikely Mr. Truman would be willing to let controls lapse -even temporarily—on the chance that Congress might pass a stronger law. The new bill, approved yesterday by the House and Senate, would extend federal controls for 15 months. But it woul(7 give states and municipalities a chance to get out from under rent ceilings, and would guaranee landlords a “fair net operatng income.” The new measure was worked out by a joint conference committee as a compromise between earlier Senate and House rent bills. Mr. Truman on Feb. i asked for the enactment of a strong rent law that would extend controls for 24 months and provide criminal penalties for landlords .vho violated it. Both the Senate and House balked at such legislation. Injtead of criminal penalties against violators. Congress •vrote Into the final bill a providon authorizing Housing Expoliter Tlghe E. Woods to sue overcharging landlords for trebi" damages. Despite its departures from the original Truman proposal, he final compromise measures vas described by administration ’eaders as a distinct improvement over the present rent control law. They said that even the two features most bitterly assnilo. by rent control supporters th, “local option” and the “fair re‘urn’’ provisions are workable »nd should not be considered a serious obstacle to the maintenance of effective rent ceilings. Woods said the “fair return” provision is a “more equitable” guarantee of fair treatment to andlords and tenants alike than •he present, less-specific hardship rules.
