SPEED LAWS ON STATE HIGHWAYS MISUNDERSTOOD "PRIOR OPINIO] ON RENTALS APPLY TO INDIVIDUAL CASE Playtex Baby ProdgctS Wattles brag McHenry 111. 4Stl One of the moat misunderstood | laws in the- stat£ of Illinois is the one concerning the speed of motor vehicles on public highways. Joseph H„ Braun, general counsel and secretary of the Chicago Motor club, pointed out that the only limitation fixed by statute is that no person shall drive a motor vehicle "upon any public highway in this state at a speed greater than is reasonable and proper, having regard to the traffic and the use of the way; or u> as to endanger the life or limb or injure the property of any person." According to Brann, the only purpose of speed limit signq is to inform the operators of motor vehicles of the prima facie speed limits established in a particular area. The fact 'that there is & sign stating speed limits in utiles per hour does not mean that to go beyond that speed limit is in violation of the state law," Braun explained. "A speed of even less Lhan the posted speed limit would 4tfll be a violation of the law and punishable if it violated the basie rule as stated above. "Conditions and circumstances which exist at the time and place of the alleged offense are the pertinent factors which determine whether or not a motorist is traveling at a speed greater than is reasonable and proper having regard to the traffic and use of the way or so as to endanger the Mfe or limb or injure the property fit any person." Braun emphasized that misunderstanding of Illinois' "speed" law is shared by police and magistrates throughout the state. He said the Chicago Motor club Is attempting to bring facts to law enforcement officials in countywide conferences at which the fundamentals and spirit of the law are considered and discussed Meetings have been held in Du- Page, Grundy and Bureau counties and Aurora, 111.; They are con* ducted under joint sponsorship of the Chicago Motor club and the Illinois State's Attorneys' association.

Jacobson, acting atsoclattoit nPea rent director has cautioned landlords today that a "pripr opinion" as to what rent adjustment may be anticipated from the rent office is applicable only to the particular piece ^ of property 09 which it is issued*.' Where a landlprd, for # example, is considering making a major capital improvement on property under rent control," explained Mr. Jacobson, "if he will submit his contractor's estimate of what the job will cost together with a full description of what the job entails, the rent office will gladly give him a so-called prior opinion, in writing, stating what incmise he can expect from the rent office after he has completed the 'work and filed a petition for an adjustment Of tite legal ' m a x i m u m r e n t * . " • - " No increase Is warranted, however. until after an increase order is issued by the rent office.-- Many landlords seek "prior opinions" from the rent offiee before spending money on their property in order to determine whether or not 'the expenditure will be financially worth while to them. The amount of an adjustment mais vary from city to city, depending on local conditions, or even within a community as cohditions change. It Is determined by this local rent director and, in gome instances, by recommendations of the volunteer local rent advisory board. ® "The important thing for land lords to remember in connection with prior opinions," emphasized Mr. Jacobson, "is that prior opinion ie Valid only for, the par Hen - lar housing accommodation on which it is issued."
