Some months ago The Evening World warned owners of apartment houses in this city that if they un- duly tnereased the rentais of their |tenants they might reasonably expect ‘ proportionate increase in the as- seowsed valuation of their properties. From the records of the Mayor's Committee on Rent Profittering sev- eral properties were designated as having been reported by thelr ten- ants as in this class.
