il HIRSHEIELD JOLTS HEIGHTS LANDLORD ) WHO RAISED RENTS Tenants Complain of $10 Ad- vance After Louis Bitting Bought Building May 1. Louis Biting, No. 122 East séth Greet, had a bad half hour this af- tarnoon before Commissioner of Ac- @eunts David Hirshfield, who heard Charges against him of rent proffteer- fag. It was brought out that Bitting and his wife bought the %0-apart- ment house at Nos. 574-580 West 176th Gtreet on May 1 last, and immediately Boosted the rents $10 a month. fhe tenants made a creditable @rowing and talked of their predica- tent more in sorrow than in anger. Bitting refused to be sworn and his attorney, G. N. Handel of No. 46 Ce dar Street, objected to his client answering any questions as to his personal affairs in the presence of Dis tenants. “Do you take the attitude,” asked the Commissioner, “that you can do with your property as you please, @nd increase the rents as you please, and that it is not the business of the PUblic or anyone else what you do about itt’ ‘The landlord denied that was his attitude, but said that he was a real estate investor; that he had bought ‘the property on May 1, and must re- fage to say what the rent roll was then. Questtoned as to what his ex- penses were in connection with the Property, he said he would like to Justity them in another way. “You will justify them in my way ‘oF not at all,” returned the Commis- qoner. “I don’t want you to make a mpeech. Tho rents are unjustified and exorbitant. The moral side does not appeal to you. It's a pure dollars and cents proposition.” Among the many reports of rent Boosting received to-day by the Mayor's Committee on Rent Profi- teering was one from tenants of an apartment house on Cortelyou Road, Brooklyn, who eay they have had to stand increases within the last two months aggregating $17 a month. A letter fromthe Miramont Realty Company, No. 548 West 53d Street, Manhattan, invites suggestions from the committee as to what the com- pany should do with a building bav- img ten four-room and ten three-room apartments, which !s practically va- cant because of its bad condition ow- ing to the company’s inability to put it im proper repair, The letter says the owners would be glad to lease the eatire building at less than $1.50 a room a month. The Mayor's Committee has arbi- trated several cases of disputes be- tween landlords and tenants in the) lagt twenty-four hours, 4. Jablons, a landlord having forty- four tenants at Nos. 411 and 413 How- ami Avenue, Brooklyn, demanded $3 imereases, but finally agreed to re- » duce this to $1 a month and to give Prytatly leases, Gol Halperin, with sixty-three ten-| knuckle duster (brass knuckles), and) y ants at Nos. 219, 221 and 223 Hazel! Street, Brooklyn, also agreed to a $1| iaerease and to give yearly leases. Louis Halperin, with ninety-two tenants at Nos. 453 wo 459 Powel! treet, Brooklyn, compromised at the game figure and conditions. dJacod Solotoross, with thirty-six tamants at No. 1 East 102d Street, COURT REFUSES | TO DISMISS CASE AGAINST SKIPPER mit Conviction for First Degree Murder.
