Everybody seems to agree that the urgent need is for More dwelling places for families, yet every indication now points to the fact that by the end of this year there will be many fewer such dwell- ing places, in this borough than there were at the beginning of the year. It is true that plans for 434 new buildings were filed with the Bureau of Buildings in the first six months of this year, as against 182 in the same Period of last yewr, but of the 434 only 25 are family dwelling places. Sixteen of thom are apartment houses with a total of 855 apartments con- taining 3,787 rooms, an average of less than four and a half rooms to the apartment, Of the remaining 409 buildings,” 269 chief dodges employed by the landlords, as outlined by Counsel Mayer, are: To notify tenants that their leares will not be renewed unless they are willing to pay exorbitant rentals. If they refuse to mect this increase, the tenants are ousted by process of the law, To notify tenants that the premiscs have been sold on the co-operative plan, but offer to sell them the apart- ment if they will pay the exorbitant sum asked. ‘To show a higher valuation on their property by intertransfer of property, through alleged sales, and thus be able to extract a higher rental.
