Knight. “Our Rent Office has set up a simple plan by which we are going to cut down paper work, loss of time and expense in settling land- lord - tenant disagreements, es- pecially in matters of rent dis- putes,” Knight said. By bringing the the landlord and tenant together before a mem- ber of his staff, about nine out of tem-cases are settled on the spot. Disputes are not dragged out for weeks as they often were in the past. The Director estimated that 85% of the people who are invited in for a_ face-to-face discussion promptly come into the office. “It is simple, it’s democratic and it’s American,” the Director said,” and in the long run it makes for better feeling when both the land- lord-and tenant have a chance to} get their stories off their chests.
