Show the salt lake times FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 4, 1972 S.S. Hope Leaves for Try Brakes Before Trying to Stop The S.S. Hope begins her 10th medical teaching voyage on Feb. 4 when she departs Baltimore, Md., for Natal, Brazil. The hospital ship is scheduled to arrive in Brazil Feb. 16 where she will carry out medical treatment and training programs during the next ten months. Project HOPE was invited to Brazil by the University of Natal. During the mission HOPE will work with the University in an area wide program to improve the general health of the population of northeast Brazil. Brazil has a severe shortage of medical personnel, primarily in the nursing and auxiliary health fields. The ships permanent staff of nurses, technicians and allied health personnel will work with local counterparts in sharing the latest advances and techniques of medicines. Brazils overall health system will benefit from HOPES team approach to health care. Teams of 20 to 25 volunteer U.S. physicians representing the various specialties will spend two month rotations in Brazil where they will work with local physicians exchanging medical knowledge and skills. Health conditions in Natal and the surrounding area with population of 1.6 million make this a logical area from which HOPE activities will be conducted in the upcoming ten months.

'i r . . i . . i Rental Categories Exempt from Controls A January 19 press conference with the Cost of Living Council revealed three categories of resi- dential rentals which are to be exempted according Revenue bilization are: 1. from economic control, to C. J. Walk, Internal Sendee Director, Stafor the exempt areas Apartment units renting for $500 a month or more. 2. Owner occupied dwellings of four or less units having the longer than month to month rental agreements. For example, duplexes, triplexes and fourplex-e- s where the owner resides in one of the units. 3. Single family rental dwellings rented for less than month to month periods where the landlord owns four units or less. This generally includes small landlords who lease a limited number of houses where there is nor- mally a close and long term relationship between the landlord and his tenant. Mr. Walker explained that the exemptions will remove nearly 10 million of the estimated 23.6 million renter occupied housing units in the U.S. from controls. The exempt areas are considered the least inflationary among the residential rentals. According to the Assistant to the Director, the Cost of Living Council estimates that the combined effect of the three exceptions will cover roughly 45 per cent of the nations residential renter occupied housing units. These exemptions will allow the IRS, he said, to concentrate on those areas that the Cost of Living Council feels have the greatest potential for inflation.
