Hotel Rent Rules To End In Washington
The end of hotel rent controls is set to begin with decontrol of transients on Saturday, with landlords applying for rate changes. AAA estimates 15 000 motor courts and 175 000 rooms may see 10 to 20 percent increases in resort areas, while permanent guest rooms stay under ceilings. Hotel and housing officials foresee varied boosts, constrained by food and bar revenue, and hardship-based rent hikes to be reviewed by OPA offices. Congressional discussions on broader rent increases and continued controls extend to June 30 1948.

Fugitive arrest for intoxication referenced in notes
The record notes a fugitive was arrested for intoxication but not fingerprinted and his true identity remained unrevealed. It mentions a Mississippi killing at Pheba in Clay county, Blansett’s 1941 conviction and Mississippi penitentiary sentence, a tomato as a love token, and Sir Walter Raleigh introducing the tomato to the Queen.
