Eviction Safeguards
Under The
New Rent Law
Tenants, including wives and
children of servicemen, this week
had important new safeguards
against unjust eviction with the
announcement of new regulations
on the subject by Mr. Attilio Ban
dettini. Area Director of the Office
of Rent Stabilization.
Most important are those insur
ing military families from capri
cious eviction from company hous
ing. giving tenants in newly form
ed cooperatively-owned apartment
houses additional protection from
being forced to purchase their
units, and additional securities that
if a landlord evicts on the ground
he needs the property to shelter
himself or his immediate family
(the claim of self-occupancy) he
is telling the truth.
The new regulations, long con
sidered, come on the heels of an
official declaration by Congress
that the tenant needs more protec
tion. Congress so expressed itself
this week when it wrote into the
new Housing and Rent Law the
right of tenants to sue for damages
when they are evicted unlawfully.
Abuse of the claim of self-occu
pancy might be an example of
such an unlawful eviction. Another
might be a landlord's claim that
he must evict a tenant in order
to remodel the building when he
has no intention of doing so.
In all such cases, the tenant or
the Office of Rent Stabilization
may now sue the landlord for
treble damages. The Office of Rent
Stabilization may also obtain an
injunction against the landlords to
prevent further violations.
The new ORS regulations spell
out the three new protections set
up in the regulations like this:
1. Suppose an employe of a com
pany which furnishes housing at a
comparatively low figure as part
of the wage compensation (com
pany housing) is mustered into
military service in another section,
then his family could ordinarily
not be evicted from this housing
even though the serviceman is no
longer a company employe. An ex
ception would be if the company
landlord could prove that, the ac
commodations were needed for a
key employe who could not be ob
tained or retained unless the par
ticular housing accommodations
were furnished him.
2. Purchasers in cooperative as
sociations formed "after August 1
to buy apartment houses, now lose
their privilege of evicting tenants
who have refused io T>uy and so
become owners of their rental
units as cooperative members. In
the past, eviction of tenants by
purchasers became legal once the
number of units occupied by the
cooperative members rerrhed 65
per cent in the apax-tment house.
This stand was taken because it
has proved many tenants who
could hardly afford the additional
financial burdens of homc owner
ship were nevertheless forced to
buy to escape eviction.
In justice to the owners, how
ever, two exceptions have to be
made to this rule, Mr. Bandettini
said. The restriction is not retro
active to cooperative associations
formed before August 1, and the
protection applies only to tenants
who were in occupancy at the
time of the purchase. If a coopera
tive owner rents his unit tempor
arily, he may evict his own tenant
at any time subject to the re
strictions applicable to other prop
erties.
3. Landlords who use the right
of self-occupancy now are required
to state this their reason in detail.
If they say for example that they
must have housing at once for a
newly married son and daughter
in-law they must furnish sufficient
information to enable ORS to sub
stantiate the accuracy of the claim.

SILKWORM’' :
m
It teems probable that the manufacture of clothing introduced the
world’s first industry. Mother Eve started the styles with a fig leaf. But
cotton fiber later was found to be more practical. Wool and the skins of
animals have long been in vogue. The silkworm gave us silk from its
cocoon. Count Hilaire de Chardonnet, French scientist, adapted the silk
worm process to o machine and patented rayon in 1884-85. But only in
the past two decades has this process been improved by American chem
*ists. They compound fiber fluids from coal, limestone, wood, cornstalks,
glass, various gases, and other substances to produce nylon, Orion,
Dynel, and more than a score of other fabrics which are patented, making
growth and further development possible so that the manufacture of
clothing has become one of our greatest industries.

This puts the burden of proof on
the landlord.
Scarcely less important than
these major changes are two
others:
First: A landlord seeking evic
tion on the ground that his tenant
has failed to pay rent must set
forth the maximum rent. That’s a
check against violation by the
landlord himself, tie may be charg
ing rents aoove legal ceilings.
Second: A landlord seeking an
eviction must himself have obeyed
the law by registering his property
with local rent offices. Only for
properly registered properties will
ORS now permit evictions.
The Office of Rent Stabilization
has a direct check-rein on evic
tions in any event. The laws gov
erning the federal rent control
program have always set up two
major procedures which involve
a check by the federal rent agency
whether it was called ORS. OTS
or Office of the Housing Expedit
er. If a landlord claims non-pay
ment of rent, or that the tenant
is using the property for illegal
or immoral purposes or committing
a nuisance, he must furnish notice
to ORS and then take action in
tile courts. On other grounds, he
must obtain a certificate of evic
tion from ORS and then follow up
in the courts.
The new regulations clarify the
problem of eviction for substantial
alterations or remodelling.
The landlord must prove either
that the alteration will create addi

tional self-contained family units
so that the housing supply will be
increased, that it will substantially
improve the existing dwelling unit
for continued use as a dwelling
unit, or that it is reasonably neces
sary to protect and conserve the
housing accommodation. In all
three cases it must be established
that the work cannot practicably
be carried on if the tenant remains
in occupancy.
To clarify the rights of property
owners, the regulations were
changed to make it possible for
co-owners of a housing accommo
dation containing four or
apartments to obtain evictio
self-occupancy. In the past
owners occupancy was resti
in structures containing more
two units to occupancy by
one co-owner. j
