President Signs One Year Rent Control Extension
President Truman signed a new rent control law extending controls to March 31, 1949. The act allows an emergency Federal Court to review rent ceilings and give local rent boards significant weight on decisions based on adequate evidence. The move comes as a safety measure before the prior act would have expired.
