Rent Chief May
Ask U.S, Congress
For New Controls
Washingtoif; Nov. 9 ilB Rant
director 'lighe E. Woods said to
day he will ask the new congress
noi oniy io extend Dut to strength'
en me rent control law. ..-.
"The shortage of rental hous
ing ,is more serious today, espe
clally In the smaller communities,
than it was a year ago," Woods
lorn tne united Press Jn an inter
view.
He said he will ask congress to
extend the rent law for 12 months
past its present expiration date,
March 31, and to close what he
considers three big loopholes in
me present act.
In addition he probably will
propose that congress give him
new authority to restore controls,
or Impose them for the first time,
in areas that may be boomed by
new aeiense activity.
Changes Sought ,
Here are the major changes he
win asK in tne present law:
1. Eviction controls Restore
federal control over evictions..
Now evictions are left to local
courts. The result, woods said, is
a serious black market in rents.
2. Treble damages Give the
rent director power to sue rent
violators for three times their
overcharge. Now only the tenant
can bring such suits. This means
that landlords usually get off
with simple repayment of the
overcharge.
3. Criminal sanctions Provide
jail terms annd fines for convict
ed violators. This would give the
rent director weapons to back
up his orders. Now he has no
such weapons. -
Woods believes the new demo
cratic congress will receive his
proposals cordially. Capitol sourc
es supported this belief. Some
pro-New Deal senators were re
ported pressing for an extension
of two years rather than 12
, months.
Situation Worse !
Far from being licked, the rent
al housing shortage has gotten
worse, Woods said. - i
"This is due to the fact that
new families are being created
faster than new living units, plus
the fact that many new units are
priced out of reach of the aver
age family," Woods explained.
, He said rents on new units
which are free of control now
range from $90 to $125 for small
apartments. - Prices for small
houses run from $9,000 to $12,000,
he said.
"This is more than the average
family can pay," he said.
- An extension 'Of rent controls
was one of President Truman's
campaign pledges. He is expected
to recommend it promptly to the
81'st congress. Organized real
estate Interests have opposed an
other extension. ' i

Seems that Bret Harto once
wrote, "That for ways that
are dark . . . the heathen Chi
nee Is peculiar." And the Name
applies to diplomacy with a
heavy brush. Right now the
top statesmen of the democ
racies are trying to figure out
how o treat Dictator Franco
of Spain. Obviously, Franco Is
no ruler of a democratic coun
try, yet the position of Spain
is as Important, as (he bottom
nan in a balancing act. He's a
key man in the Mediterranean.
We can't agree with his po'l
cies, and we can't ignore Ills
strategic Mltlon. Is It any
wonder that diplomats wear a
worried look under those top
hats in the ncwsrecls?
A week ago today everyone
except the Republicans hud
that same worried look. Today,
although they took such a ter
rific, licking, everyone goes
along as usual.
Which goes to prove that al
though we may not agree
among ourselves on the details
we are u 1 1 e definitely
agreed that our way of life Is
most tolerable.
.lust try to imagine living
under any other kind of gov
ernment. A Memphis woman has a
dog that likes frozen popsicles.
With all the hot dogs in the
football stadiums these days,
guess a cold dog Just had to
show up! As long as we're on ,
cold facts, you should know
that the. finest service In town

New York, Nov. 9 IP Cancer,
the disease that killed Babe Ruth,
has taken the baseball hero's doc
tor.
As in the case of Ruth, the diag
nosis of cancer in Dr. Hlppolyte
M. Werthelm. 50. .came too late.
It was disclosed today. Dr. Wer
thelm died of cancer of the pan
creas, the same type that killed
tormer Mayor jtioraio h. la
Guardia.
It was Dr. Werthelm, a neuro
surgeon, who performed the first
operation on Babe Ruth in Janu
ary, 1947. At that time it was an
exploratory operation, and a pre
liminary diagnosis of cancer was
made, but it was not confirmed
until rqpnths later. In the mean
time Ruth's condition improved,
but when the Babe suffered a
setback months later his condi
tion became steadily worse. ,
All the while Dr. Werthelm.
who did not specialize in cancer,
watched the progress of his for
mer patient. Then last January
the doctor himself became ill and
underwent an exploratory opera
tion. The diagnosis was indefin
ite, and Dr. Werthelm returned
to duty at French hospital the
hospital where he had operated
on Babe Ruth the first time.
, Several weeks later, Dr. Wer
thelm. became ill again and on
his own volition entered a Bos
ton hospital for a check-up. In
June his disease was definitely
Jlagnosed as cancer. As in the
case of3abe Ruth Dr. Werthelm
never was kold he had cancer,
but his friends today said 'they
felt sure he knew ft.
In Dr. Wertheim's case the can
cer had spread ttotn the pan
creas to other parts of his body,
a condition which usually is 100
per cent fatal. In the case of Babe
Ruth the cancer had spread from
the naso-pharynx.
Medical men pointed out that
early diagnosis and proper treat
ment might have saved both
Ruth and his doctor.
Jet Helicopter '
Passes F,irst Test
St. Louis iU' A ram-jet hell-
copter, developed by- the McDon
nell Aircraft Co., proved success
ful in its first public flight tests
here. '
The small plane, which looks
like a flying motorcycle, has a
total span of lMi feet and
weighs only 310 pounds.
Said to be ideal for low altitude
reconnalsance, "Little Henry"
banks and turns easily, flys back
ward and can hover at various
elevations for more than half an
hour.
Company engineers said the
plane .operates on any kind of
gasoline and will even fly on kero
sene.
It consists of a two-blade rotor,
two tip ram-jets, a small rudder
and an open steel structure sup
porting the pilot, fuel tanks and
controls. .
