COMPUTE INCREASE IN RENT OVER THAT EFFECTIVE IN 1947 Landlords filing application fof the 20 percent rent increase provided for in the new rent law, or such part of the increase they may be entitled to, are cautioned to compute the increase "bver the legal registered rent in effect on June 30. 194$. and not on the basis of present rent ceilings. According to Harold B. Jacobson, Acting associate area rent director of the Waukegan branch rent office, where a landlord does not figure the increase on the June 30, 1947 legal rent, the rent office will revoke or modify the rent boost as the registrations are checked in the rent office or where the tenant calls attention to the error. Said J a cob son, the rent .law. provides that landlords are entitled to a rent increase to raise the legal rent to 20 percent above the total of the legal rent la effect on June 30. 1947, plus any increase allowed or allowable from June 30, 1947 to August 1, 1951, for major capital improvements, increased space, services, furniture, furnishings or equipment; and minus any decreases which are or may be required because of„ substantial deterioration or failure to perforjii ordinary repair. replacement, or maintenance. Tenants have fifteen days after receipt of the rent office notification of the increase to protest .to the rent office, in writing, if they feel that any of the- statements made by the landlord, or the certification, are incorrect.

It will b» tV widest motor car decision you ever made. First of all, consider the car's reputation. Wherever highways lead, there is general recognition that CadiUac is the Standard of the World. Not only is this an endkse Nwce of pride and satisfaction to the Cadillac owner--but it is incontestable proof of Cadillac's historic quality. Such a reputation could come only from loopcontinued superiority. ' And then consider what Cadillac brings you in tqrms of every-day satisfaction. Every mile you drive, or ride, is a sheer delight. The word for it is wonderful-- and the proof of jt can be found in an hour at the wheel. To ride » to test--and to drive is to relax. But over and above ill is §n KgmfiDt im Curat - of Cadillac so practical and conclusive that it «hn«»H be hard for anyone to ignore: The lowest-priced model of this great and distinguished motor car is priced competitively with numerout and varied models produced by other manufacturers. Yes--every day --scores of people actually pay the price oi a Cadillac --and still don't get one! Add to this moderate cost the further fact that few cars--of any price--will run farther on a gallon of gasoline--and even economy points to Cadillac! So--if your heart is set on a Cadillac--come in and order it. There isn't a single logical reason why you shouldn't do so. x y^rr-r Overton Cadillac^ ^ . .
