INVESTIGATE COMPLAINT _ City Police last nlg/ht investigated a. complaint tempting to accost women on Kent Street. Police said the man was an old resident of Charlottetown and was a slight mental case but ppm-really harmless. They gave him a warning and sew that he went home.

Special provision Is ntade for 1m additional IO-per-cent increase in rontak ln oases where the tenantl

is sub-letting three or more rooms and thus renting the accommoda- tion as l. rooming house. To ob- tain this additional increase, the» landlord must apply to the rentals, appraiser for_ the adjustment be- fore offering the tenant the two- year-lease.

Other provisions include:-

l. The IO-percent increase will not. become effective until the expiration 0f the present lease.

2. If the tenant refuses the proffered two-year renewal lease. he ntay be acquired to vacate at the end of the present lease.

. If the tenau-t thus VHOJtBS. the landlord may put the increase into affect tn renting to a new tenant.

4 The two-year renewal lease, if accepted, may be terminated by the tenant at any time on 30

the period. ‘

Mr. Abbott said that if the lar-d- lord ls not prepared to_offer his tcmnl a two-year lease the ten-i atrt may continue to occupy the: accommodation after the expira- tion of the present lease on a month-to-month basis at the pres- ent ceiling with continued pro- tection againet eviction.

There also ls provision for cor-I rectlotv of anomalous Cases where a landlord believes the maximum rental ts "substantially less" than rentals generally prevailing in the vlcin-lty for similar accommoda-

tlon. He may apply to the rentals administration for an adjustment before offering the tenant the two- year lease.

The yardstick for these cues, said Mr. Abbott, will be the level of “rentals genemuy prevailing on Oct 11, 194.1, for similar accommo- dation in the vicinity or in a slm- lar residential district ln the same Illioipallty."

The former Fighting French leader said France should remain a country of “western people," maintaining tulance bet-ween Rus- aln. and the United States, which "are automatically rivals, though one has the right to hope that they will not become enemies."

The alternative of constitutional "reform" and the creation of a strong French chief executive. he sold, la dictatorship, anarchy and overthrow of the "independence of state."

Young Allan was arrested t“? morning at one of his classes at Central High School. There arc no other children in the Allan family. Rev. James S‘ Allan has been rector of the church for last seven years.

The youth related. the chief said. that he went to the ‘Wflfkbl-C-ll Tuesday afternoon to borrow a hammer. The officer said the youth told hl-m that he dropped a few coins on the floor, and as the sex- ton was stooped down helping hlm retrieve the money, he picked up the hammer and hit him over the 316ml for about 15 minutes.

"I had to make sure that he was dead," the chief quoted Allan as saying. “I picked up the drill plugged it into the power socket and drilled his body. I don't know how many times."

He said he had not been angry at llfrank and that "I liked hlm very much."
