WARRANT ISSUED HUSBAND OF SLAIN 1 HEAVY BURDEN ON FOR NEW ARREST WOMAN BE 1 wm ECKERT SCANDAL QUESTIONED TO-DAY BOOSTERS Long After End of Profiteering Era, TENANTS URGE CUTS Housing Conditions Expected Three or Four Years in The Donrllnfr Rent Bill, If passed at the npcclal session of the Legislature, will create nn unusual situation In the Tax Department.

The seventy deputy assessors now working In the field will 'become Indirectly the arbiters of rental values throughout tho olty. Instead of the usual crowd of landlords clamoring for reduction of assessed values, flat dwellers, whose Interest In tho tax ofllco lias been lacking under ordinary conditions, will bo the ones to urge reductions In values, on the basis of which It Is proposed to tlx rentals. The records of the Tax Department showing the ebb and flow of real estate values Indicate that there Is little foundation for tho fears expressed that landlords will encourago high valuations so they may collect higher rentals. The gross allowance for income and upkeop of tenement property, from "cold-water" to steam-heated and flcvator apartments, probably will be et somewhere between 1G and 18 per cent. As the tax rato in Manhattan is $2.48 per $100.

a higher valuation would appear to be of bolieflt to tho owner. This would be true If tho abnormal housing situation were to continue definitely, but It Is believed mec or fr of building I "ivity, to encourage which mrM presented at the special session of the Legislature Sept. 20 will "ring housing back to more nearly normal. Tho return of housing to normal sill many tmiun who have I lO An K.ii rt 1 rents to pay taxes on he peak value long after rent profiteering hius become a thing of the past. "Assessed values move downward more slowly than they move upward President Jacob Cantor of tho Board of Taxes and Assessments said.

"The assessed vnlues seldom reach the peak of high prices and rvver fall to the low record mark. Real estato h-IIs more slowly than stocks and bonds. The assessed values aro not a record of tho real estnte market, but estimates by experts of the selling value of property on which taxes are collectible." The deputy assessors aro men of many years' servlco In 'the department, many of them having a charter of a century of service to their records. They approach tho task of tlxing values conservatively, so that 'hey can stand the, acid test of court proceedings. This year, If tho Dow-jing bill becomes a law, some ownort may let their greed for Immediate lirotlts hold thorn back from seeking the reductions asked for year, hut their tenants probably will dls- play considerable activity after the 'ax books are opened Oct.

1. Although theru is bounlto be some ariatlon in apportlonmeirt of rents in uny building, duo to desirability of the various apartments, the. number of rooms occupied by any tenant will be a pretty close guide to the amount that should be paid In based on the assessed vapie plus 20 per cent. This valuation and the allowance for operation cannot be mado irbitrarlly, but will bo presumed by law to be reasonable unless definite proof to tho contrary Is Records of the Mayor's Committee Rent Profiteering show an apparent discrepancy In rentals and tax valuations, as measured by tho proposed rent law. Tho assessed valu-itmns given in the following oases were llxed last fall, and are supposed to liave taken Into consideration tlu Increased rentals demanded by landlords.

Yet the rentals now demanded out of all proportion to the assessed valuations supposed to reflect i lie rental Incomes of last fall. Tenant at No. 334 Ocean Avenue, Iliooklvn. reports to Mayor's Com mittee that landlord demands 1125 for apartment renting for $100. Rato of inmost', 25 per cent.

Assessed valu ation, $170,000. Under Dowllng bill, l.i milord would be entitled to grocu inutimo of about $32,600. If now ln-i nine is larger than this, it would be resumed rents were too high or owner was paying too little for taxes. If uAsessed ialu.it lun is Increased In proportion to rental, 1921 tuxable would he $212,500. Tenant at No.

6821 fourth Avenue, Mi ooklyn, reports to Mayor's Commlt-that landlord demands $75 for i Pertinent renting for 45. Rato of iineaao Gfi 2-3 rcr cent. Absessed $14,000. Under Dowllng bill landlord would be entitled to gross income of about If total new rentals domanded exceed Ujls amount would be presumed rents were too hhrh or owner Diiylng too little for taxes. If assessed valuation Is in-neiified In proportion to rental, 1921 taxable value would bo $23,000.

Tenant at No 1247 K.ist 37th Street reports to Mayor's Committee that landlord, R. S. Jaffe, demands tG5 for apartment renting for $45. Rate of Increase 45 per cent. Assessed valuation, Under Dowllng bill landlord would be to total rental of $2,752.

If vearly total demanded exceeds this amount, landlord would bo presumed to be charging too much rent or paying too littlo for taxes If assessed vnlu increased In proportion to rental, Uxnulu value wu.uld ita Return to Normal UCUUre rOHUCS Has 1N0 KMCe in The'y Daily Routine or Thoughts. This is the seventh article of a series dealing uHth the political reactions of the passage of the Suffrage Amendment in Xcw Jersey, Connecticut and Delaware. To-day's article begins a review of the situation in Delaware. BY FAY STEVENSON. Whot does the vote In Delaware mean to tho women? How does the homcmaker, the business woman and the sweet young thing who is twenty-one but still lives at homo and is supported by "pa" feel since the extension of the franchise through the ratification of Tennessee? Alighting from the Wilmington train 1 found In less than half an hour that, although the State of Delaware fought a good fight for Woman Suffrage, now that women have the vote, many of them in Wilmington, tho largest and most businesslike city in the State, bite their lips with determination, shake their heads and declare "I'm not agoing to vote, at all." Ask the average Delaware woman why she Isn't "agoing to vote," and she will eitehcr tell you that it Isn't a woman's place to go to the polls or she will quite frankly admit sho hasn't thought about It enough to vote Intelligently.

"Wo don't get time to read and study the questions down here," mos of them told me; "we're too busy canning peaches and making homes for our men. They've votel well enough for us nnd wo reckon they can go right on voting." ALL DELAWARE PEACHES DON'T GROW ON TREES. And s.peaklng of peaches, let me add right here that all the peaches In Delaware do not grow on tho trees. They nro walking about the town In dainty dimity frocks, and whether they vote or not, whether they ever heard of the Leaguo(ot Nntions, the Nineteenth Amendment, Wilson, Co or Harding, they are all for Artist Hoppe and the beauty contest. Because I had my doubts about the homo woman caring to vote, I first questioned tho business girls of Wil mlngton.

Miss Eva Ofnko of No. 12 West 12th Street, a pretty dark-oyed elevator starter for tho Hotel du Pont, nt 10th and Market Streets, shook her head most emphatically when l' broached this subject to hor. "No, Indeed. I'm not going near the polls," sh.e declated. "Why? Because It's no placo for a woman.

I may have to work to support myself, but I don't have to hang around to vote. 1 should think women would bo ashamed to bo seen there. Women nro altogether too masculine nowadays with their high collars, smoking cigarettes, and now marching oft to thu polls. Of course, I think woman is man's equal mentally, but I don't seo how voting Is going to rnlfco her In tho oyes of the world. 1 don't know much about tho of Nations, and I don't want to.

Tho men made the Constitution, and I reckon they can go right un making It." Sitting In a cage box oftlce next to i tho Hotel du Pont at a movie theatre house where "A Modern Salome" wa. shotting, I found little Miss Elinor I (Continued oa Fifteenth Page,) 4 WHO ARE THE FIVE PRETTIEST GIRLS IN THE UNITED STATES? the five American beauties appeared In The Evening World?

Hoppe, whoso select! in of Kngjish beauties appeared recently In The Evening World, is doing his best to match them with ll'vr American beauties.
