The vietim is the tenant and his lamentations and pro- | tests fill the pages of the press and are heard wherever men congregate. No tenant is safe, and the demands of the landlords are not limited by even the blue sky. Some have an- nounced increases of 300 and 400 per| cent; 500 per cent is recorded in some | cases. The date for the new rates is| July 1. War Contracts, I Up to the present time fenants have | been enjoying possession on contracts | made prior to and during the war. | This was when the lire was five for a | dollar; today a dollar costs between 20 and 25 lire. Existing contracts were made obligatory by the recent I"acta government up to 1926, but Premier Mussolini threw a bombshell into the situation when he rescinded this decree and became responsible | for a ruling that landlords could Lenceforth charge what they pleased. | The only recourse of the tenant is an appeal to his provincial commission, composed equally of landlords and tenants, which will hear complaints | and make recommendations. Mus- solini has warned the landlords not to be “graspi nd abuse their posi- tion, but ti vords contain little | hope, tenants are. Landlords Right. much to commend it, and the argu- ment is advanced in calmer quarters | that it is only right the tenant finally should surrender his immunity and | bear his share of the burden. Com- | pelied to hold to pre-war leases, the | landlords have been heavily xed, | and have had to pay greatly increas- «d prices for labor and material. They had no recourse whatever. They had to smile and stand the gaff. And | nothing prevented the tenant from subletting at whatever he could get. "'here is one landlord in Rome who | rented flats for 150 lire a month, while his tenants rented rooms for 600 lire a mol.(h each. Population Increased. | The situation is aggravated by the substantial increase in the population of Rome during the past five years The city now counts 698,000 inhabi- tants, or 66,000 more than in 1918, | In view of the lack of new building, | the housing situation js acute, with no promise of improvement. In 1918 there were 10,421 Mrths' in Rome against 17,594 in 1922, Dur- ing the same period the number of | marriages increased from 2936 to L8RY. The births in 1922 the deaths in the city b The turmoil of today is all five months in advance of the date when the increased remtals will become ef- | fective. The landlords declare this period is too long, while the tenants hope they will be able to do some- thing about it before next July, but| no one yet has come forward with | any acceptable plan of campaign. classified ad a day, | ‘A “Herald" keeps the sheriff away.
