Drift Porter, associate rent director, aald this week. I Hereafter, he announced, land- j Iqrda and tenants will serve notice j OB etch other when applying to the rent office for rent adjustneqta, erletion certificates and #thor acttona affecting the «ther party, j Previously the notice was serf-; ed by the rent office after the ap- j plication or the petition had been j fll#d. j "The new procedure will reduce, the workload and speed up the final determination on requests," < the rent official said. i Another change provides for di-1 roct appeals by the landlords or .j tenants from the rent director's decisions to the housing expediter in Washington. This eliminates the Intermediate atep of review by the regional office in Chicago, which i was previously available to land- j lorda and tenants. I Porter emphasized that the rent1 office policy of requiring notice to affected parties is retained and, I Is fact, strengthened under the new streamlined procedure. Under! this policy either party to a rental1 agreement is entitled to know | when the other party files a re-1 quest with the rent office for an , action which will mean eviction,1 change in rent or change in the accommodations or services. i "The new method," the rent of- I ffcial Mild, "calls for the landlord' Of tenant to serve the notice directly to the other person, instead ft providing a notice copy to the Office for service. For example, a landlord will now deliver 4 copy of his petition persanally to each tenant or by mail, ! or by leaving it at the tenant's NMlie&ea. provided there are no mora than four tenants involved.; "In cases where there are more: four tenants, the landlord Slajr «ae this same method or post a oopy of the petition form on the prawiaaa. If the notice is posted, the landlord also must serve each tenant with notice of the nature <K the posted document and the place Where It is posted." l| those cases where a tenant Jfe leaking action, he can serve notfctt only by delivering a copy of hit ••application personally to the by leaving it .at his place Of Hftidence or principal place of fypMial, or by mail.

VETERANS URGED TO EXERCISE CARE I ft FILING1 FOR REFUNDS Extreme caution should be exercised by veterans in applying for their National Service Life Insurance refunds, the Illinois Veterans' Commission said this week. I It has already been discovered that one question calls for the ! listing of sCTvioe serial numbers 1 and that veterans are supplying j their date of enlistment instead. ! An error of this kind may result in the veteran having to refile when the government discovers | the mistake because the application cannot be processed without service serial num^rs. I The serial number is one of the \ most important items on the application blank. For those veter- : ans who were both enlisted men 1 and then officers, both numbers j are required. r | Service officers of the Illinois Veterans' Commission are familiar , with the application refund instructions and are ready to assist ! veterans in filling them out prop- , erly.

Tips «n Sttraft »f Otal Qlvtn fey Hut EnfiRMit Adequate provision for handling and storing coal should be made in all houses in which coal will be used as a fuel. Because of the bulk and weight of coal, the house plan should provide for a short, streamlined movement of the coal from truck to bin tp heating plant, says the Plumbing and Heating Industries bureau. There are five essentials to keep In mind in planning a basement or utility room with coal storage facilities, the bureau points out. These are: 1. The coal bin should be located so that the coal can be moved from the coal truck into the bin without having to be rehandled ^ 2. The bin should hold five tons or more. 3. All bins for coaT*that must be shoveled into the stoker hopper, or fired by hand in -the furnace, should be sloped toward the coal outlet. • 4. The coal bin may be placed under the driveway, inside the basement proper, or partly inside knd partly outside the basement. If inside, the bin" should extend -from the floor to the ceiling. 5. For use with bin-feed stokers, a hopper-type bottom in the coal bin will facilitate coal removal and handling. However, it is not necessary to have a hopper type storage bin if the reserve coal is allowed to remain in the bin. The coal takes the place of the hopper sides. A bin 6 feet square, filled to the depth of approximately 5VI feet, will hold 5 tons of coal.

Predictable Evolution A new theory of "systematic, predictable evolution" has been introduced by Laurence L. Sloss, associate professor of geology at Northwestern University, Chicago. In a paper read to the Association Of Petroleum Geologists in St. Louis, Mo., Prof. Sloss described his research in rock fossils which date from half a billion years ago tp the present. By counting the numbers of kinds of animals present in each succeeding period of geologic time, he found that each life group recorded in the fossils began with a small number of types, rose to % very large number, and then gradually declined toward eventual extinction. "By studying the life span of animals whose entire history is in the geologic past, and applying the same geologic principles," he pointed outi "jge can predict the eventual pattern of rise, decline* and extinction ofvfcnimals living today.

British Maneuver in 1830 Taught Rails' War Value Wars were fought, lost and won, long before man eve'r conceived the idea of a railroad, but the importance of the industry in expediting manpower, food and equipment during such times was quickly realized once the rails were down. As early as 1830, only one year before the first "iron horse" appeared in this country, a British regiment was moved 34 miles in two hours as against two days of marching on the opening of the Liverpool and Manchester railway. In 1833, a German who had participated in the Napoleonic Wars, proposed a plan for construction of a certain rail line because of its future military value. Prussia, Russia, Austria and other eastern hemisphere countries soon followed this line of thinking* American railroads bad the first major chance to prove their military worth during the Civil War. Because of the vast area of military operations in that war, it has been said that "without the help of railways it could hardly have been fought at all." Their need was soon seenCby the government, and Congress, in 1862, authorized the President to take possession of the rails, whenever necessary, EAd approximately 2,105 miles of railroad were taken over during the war. %. Public Transit The public transit industry employed regularly last year almost 300,000 workers who received $825,- 000,000 in wages.
