It would be fine if rents could bt jacked up still higher and kept up long enough to enable owners of flimsily constructed units to unload at present inflated values. . .before the inevitable crash In which those who have bought under duress are bound to lose their homes and all they have paid in . . . I'm not overly intrigued by the delightful if sophomoric literary exercises by the naive gentlemen speaking speak-ing for the Real Estate Board Lots of hyperbole, sophistry sophis-try and just plain bunk. . So they are willing "to purchase their right to freedom" by verbally ver-bally agreeing to raise rents not more than fifteen per cent ...In Heaven's name by what right do they call that "a sacrifice. sacri-fice.

Such loose business methods must, on sober reflection reflec-tion be the keenest kind of torture to that hard headed business head, my friend Sam Levin... We all know what happened when we were master-minded into taking off OPA "We get sturig the same if Rent Control goes off... Why so much ado as to whether or not a surplus of renting units?? If a surplus exists, why extor-inate extor-inate rents that is if Free Enterprise Competition were really working . . . Why isn't Competition working ... Is it because of secret price-fixing by closely knit organizations of owners. . .That would be in violation of letter and spirit of anti-trust laws and dangerousWatch danger-ousWatch out . Here's the game: You know always a surplus sur-plus has meant lower prices. Owners say there IS a surplus and having shown by the record that a surplus exists, they "then use the asserted fact of a Surplus as justification for continuing present exorbitant rents, and on top of that get Rent decontrol so extortion can be added to extortion . . We have confidence in personal integrity of the city commission. commis-sion. ..But if any member of commission is member of Real Estate Board or is owner of rental property let's call his attention at-tention to fact that upright judges always disqualify themselves them-selves when matters fn which they have personal Interest or are publicly committed pro or con, come before them in their judicial capacity. . .The Mayor said the Commission was setting set-ting as a JURY. .
