Here Are Answers to Your
Rent Control Questions
(This U the ilxth In t lerlcs of articles explaining the opeiatlon of the rent con
trol program established In this area on October 1, under the direction of the office
of price administration.)
Keitel Asks for
Bullet Death
Nuernberg, Germany, Oct. 10
(IP) A letter of Field Marshal
Wilhelm Kcitcl asks the allied
control council, which met in
Berlin Wednesday, to have him
shot instead of hanged.
The former chief of the Ger
man high command told the
council, composed of the top oc
cupation generals of the four
big powers, he hoped his execu
tion as a war criminal would
serve as a "blessing" to the
German people and a "credit to
the German army."
Bases for Adjustments Listed
yesterday's article listed eight grounds for adjusting rents
frozen under the office of price administration's rent control
program. There are a few more. OPA is authorized to grant an
increase in rent:
9. Where there has been a substantial increase in the number
of persons occupying the rented In
dwelling, either in
a. The number of sub-tenants
occupying the home under a
rental agreement with the ten
ant. b. A substantial increase in
number of occupants in excess
of normal occupancy for that
type -of dwelling on the freeze
date, or
c. An increase over the num
ber of occupants contemplated
by the rental agreement on the
date fixing the ceiling where the
landlord had a regular practice
of charging different rates for
various numbers of occupants.
This applies to housing accom
modations only, not to hotels or
rooming houses.
10. Where on the date fixing
.the rent ceiling the property
" was temporarily exempt from
real estate taxes and the land
lord was passing the benefit of
this tax exemption on to his
tenant, the result being a rent
)ver than the level for com
parable accommodations.
11. Where, after one year of
operation of rent control, the
landlord is able to show that
his net rental income is sub
stantially lower than before
rent control because of substan
tial and unavoidable increase in
property taxes or operating
costs.
But landlords should realize
that the matter of rent adjust
ment works both ways, and the
OPA rent regulations provide
the basis for decreasing the rent
as well.
The OPA has authority to or
der a decrease in rent under
the following conditions:
1. Substantial deterioration
other than ordinary wear and
tear since the date fixing the
ceiling.
2. A decrease in services, fur
niture, furnishings or equip
ment. . .
3. A special relationship be
tween the landlord and tenant
which, in this case, resulted in
a rent on the freeze date higher
than prevailing rents in the
area.
4. A schedule of varying rents
that was at it peak on the freeze
date.
5. A schedule of seasonal rents
likewise at its peak when rents
were frozen.
6. A substantial decrease in
occupancy.
V7. A situation wherein the
fails necessary to determining
the rent ceiling were in dis
pute, in doubt or nof known.
There are other bases for de
creasing the rent but these are
the most common.
Landlords are reminded that
the OPA rent office cannot dis
cuss or accept petitions for ad
justing the rent on any dwell
ing until the registration period
Is over.
Hunters Get Deer
Wheatland Eugene Wilson,
Denzil Wilson, Frank Windsor,
Clyde M. LaFollette and Roy
Wright of the Wheatland district
returned home Wednesday with
two large deer after a vacation
spent hunting near Burns. The
deer were fat and some of the
tallow will be used for making
oap at home, one lady reported.
Nuernberg, Oct. 9 VP) Mai.
Frederick Teich said Wednes
day that Hermann Goering, the
picture of bravado and courage
in public, finally has succumbed
to the strain of waiting for the
hangman and has become "a
beaten and broken man."
Goering, who wept for the
first time yesterday after see
ing his wife, now lies despond
ently on a cot on his cell staring
into space, said Teich, the secur
ity official who makes a daily
check on the condition of the
prisoners.
None of the other prisoners
"have a good word to say for
Goering," Teich said, adding
that most of them feel the
former reichs-marshal's conduct
contributed in large measure to
the severity of the penalties im
posed on the others.
Most of the 11 condemned
men have fallen into a state of
resigned depression and decline
to discuss the verdicts and sen
tences any more.

Sawyer Sees
Dark Picture
Omaha, Neb., Oct. 10 U.R
President Robert W. Sawyer.
Bend, Ore., of the National Rec
lamation association, Wednes
day forecast a dark future for
reclamation and irrigation proj
ects because of President Tru
man's economy order slashing
appropriations.
"The future holds nothing but
uncertainty," Sawyer, Bend,
Ore., publisher, told approxi
mately 1000 delegates from 17
eastern states at the opening
session of the association's 15th
annual convention.
Sawyer said President Tru
man's economy order cutting
the reclamation program appro
priation from S214, 000,000 to
$85,000,000 for the current fis
cal year after congress ad
journed "was major surgery
performed on unwilling patients
without previous examination,
diagnosis, or understanding of
its effects. Congress, I feel cer
tain, would not have permitted
the action to go unchallenged."
Relief At Last
For Your Cough
Chronic bronchitis may develop If
your cough, chest cold, or acute bron
chitis is not treated and you cannot
afford to takeachance with any medi
cine less potent tnan ureomulsion
which goes right to the seat of the
trouble to helD loosen and exoel eerm
laden Dhleirm and aid nature to
soothe and heal raw, tender, inflamed
oroncnial mucous membranes.
Creomulsion blends beechwood
creosote byspecial process with other
time tested medicines for coughs.
It contains no narcotics. m
No matter how manv medicines
you have tried, tell your druggist to
sell you a bottle of Creomulsion with
the understanding you must like the
way it quickly allays the cough, per
mits n rest and sleep, or you are to
have your money back. (Adv.)
"In other years," Sawyer said,
"it has been possible to review
the work accomplished by the
bureau and this association, and
to consider the program for the
current fiscal year as deter
mined by congressional appro
priations. "This year all is different.
Confusion reigns. The record of
the immediate past, so far as
congressional action is con
cerned, has been erased. The
future holds nothing but un
certainty." Thanksgiving Day
Set for November 28
Thanksgiving will be ob
served November 28, Governor
Earl Snell said Wednesday. He
said the date conforms with a
congressional resolution fixing
the date as the fourth Thursday
in November.
Neuberger Will
Appeal His Case
Portland, Oct. 10 WP Appeal
will be taken to the Oregon su
preme court from the decision
by a three-judge Multnomah
county circuit court that reap
portionment cannot be required
of the legislature, Richard L.
Neuberger said Wednesday.
Neuberger brought the suit
in the allegation that failure to
follow the state's constitutional
provision for reapportionment
every 10 years denies adequate
representation to the more
populous counties.
The court held that although
the constitution directs the leg
islature to make the apportion
ment, there is no power vested
in the courts to force it to do so.

Are Returning Veterans
"Different"?
During the war you heard a lot
about how hard it waB going to be
for returning veterans to get ad
justed to civilian life . . how
they'd be "different."
Well, plenty of them have re
turned to our town, and a finer,
steadier bunch you couldn't ask
for. Most of them are back at the
same jobs . . . going with the
same nice home-town girls (get
ting married, some of them, and
setting up families) . . . renewing
the same old friendships.
Even their amusements are the
same. Nothing more exciting than
fishing Seward's creek or pitch
ing horseshoes . . . enjoying an
outdoor barbecue with friendly
wholesome beer and pleasant talk.
If they've changed at all it's in
the direction of maturity and tol
erance . . . tolerance for everything
except dictators, and those who
would destroy our democratic
principles of live and let live. And
from where I sit, that's another
reason to be proud of them.
