Continuation Of
Rent Controls
Faces Opposition
WASHINGTON, ' Nov. 30. m
Any administration request for
continuation of rent control! next
year appeared likely today to run
into strong congressional objec
tions. ,."
- That such- a request will be
forthcoming was taken for
granted. Tighe Woods, federal
rent control boss, salt Sunday the
general rental picture has not
changed since last spring when
Congress extended rent controls
untll.next June 30.
Woods took the position that
the same members of Congress
who voted tor rent control ear
lier this year would vote for it
again under the same conditions.
Congressional leaders aren't so
sure.
Chairman Spens.- (D-Ky) of the
House Banking committee de
clined to make a public prediction
on the chances of extension. Rep.
Wolcott tR-Mich) flatly asserted
that there would be no rent con
trol by the federal government
after June 30.
. Isn't Necessary. Claim- '
- - Wolcott is top minority mem
ber of the banking committee,
which handles rent control legis
lation. He has led Republican op
position to the Truman adminis
trations idea of rent control.
"federal control just isn't neces
sary," Wolcott said in an inte:
view. "There are only a few areas
In which housing shortages still
exist, and they may be handled
locally."
; ; Wolcott said the Truman admin
istration i "could make a better
case Jor restoration jf price con
trols than it can for continuance
of rent controls."
Since 1939, he said, monthly
average rentals have been boosted
only a fraction as much as all
other cost-of-living items com
bined. Wolcott said he does not think
the "same pressures" that existed
early this year will exist next
year if congress must face a vote
on rent control. The demands for
continuance of controls, he said,
have fallen off sharply as hous
ing has become more available.

Hubby Explains
Garter His Wife
Found. Cooked
DENVER, Colo., Nov. 29 UP)
This is probably the last Install
ment of the story of the suspi
cious wife who baked a blue gar
ter in the turkey dressing on
Thanksgiving day.
The wife, according to a recent
item in Molly Mayfield's Rocky
Mountain News column, planned
to cook the garter right along
with the regular stuffing insk'e
her turkey. She said she found
the garter in her husband's suit
case when he returned . home
from a business trip. . ,.
The idea was he'd be humili
ated when he spooned the bit of
silk and rubber out of the tur
key. . :
Later Mrs. Mayfield carried a
letter from the husband, .who
wrote that .he'd read his wife's
letter in the column, and was
ready for the baked garter.
He wrote: "So, when dinner
came, and I served the dressing,
I duly dipped out the garter, t
met it with a placid eye and
said: 'Oh, so you found this, did
you?'
"My wife said: 'Please, let's
not discuss this with the chil
dren present'
''And I said: 1 have no inten
tion of ever discussing it.' "
According to the husband, he
came by the garter innocently.
He said that on the trip he went
to a burlesque show and the strip
pers "bombarded the bald-headed
row with fancy garters." He said
he honestly didn't know why he
even kept the blue circlet
Mrs. Mayfield's answer, print
ed below the husband's letter:
"You've got a mighty fine story
. . , hope the garter didn t spoil
the taste of the dressing." r
