Councilmen Vote Delay Law to Ban Evictions Italian Black Markets Reap Harvest in Sale Of U. S. Food Parcels Third of a Series By William Mensing UNSCRUPULOUS European black marketeers, preying on helpless, starving people struggling for life in the wake of the war, have reaped a golden harvest by diverting part of the millions of dollars in relief packages flowing overseas from a generous and sympathetic America. The network of companies spreading out from New York, engaged in selling and shipping food parcels to distressed persons In Europe, has been victimized by these racketeers in two ways. In many districts, where chaotic post-war conditions have weakened police protection, the black market gangs have boldly swooped down on hijacking expeditions to carry off relief supplies lor future sale.

In some cases, private relief shipments have been heartlessly snatched from the mouths of the starving and resold to those willing i WEDNESDAY MORNING.

Committee Acts After Sformy Scene City Council's Law Committee voted yesterday to postpone further action on a proposed anti-eviction ordinance, designed to ban evictions from residences for a year, after hearing two-and-a-half hours of heated testimony punctuated by boos and applause. Proponents of the bill contended that failure to enact it would lead to the wholesale ouster of people from homes, inflation, and a new wave of strikes while opponents of the measure said its passage would end eventually in an adverse court decision.

ORDINANCE VIRTUALLY DEAD In effect, the committee's action virtually killed the ordinance. Committee members, in casting their votes, pointed out that the State Legislature should opecifically authorize such an emergency bill. Besides listening to the testimony, the Councilmen also recived an opinion from City Solicitor Frank F. Truscott in which he termed the ordinance as "doubtfully legal" in its present state. Councilman David Jamieson moved for the postponement action and was seconded by Councilman L.

Wallace Egan. CALLS IT A PENALTY H. Walter Graves, president of the Philadelphia Real Estate Board, headed the group opposing the ordinance. He claimed that the bill would "remove houses from the rental market" and "stop any proposed construction of rental housing." Taking exception to Graves' remarks and attacking the real estate industry in general, Herbert Mover, director of the C.I.O. Political Action Committee, said this industry did not have the right to "raise its voice" against the measure.

He explained that the "real estate lobby" has opposed every bill tending to relieve the current housing crisis. 'NEW WAVE OF STRIKES Another C.I.O. leader. William Robbins. of the Housing Committee of theriiladelphia Industrial Union Council, warned that if the "present uncontrolled speculation in residence sales continues a new wave of strikes will be inevitable." He said persons are "now being forced" to purchase homes on which they cannot hope to carry the economic burden.

William W. Jeanes, president of the Philadelphia Housing Association, favorfng the bill, said its passage would give builders an opportunity to go ahead with new construction and also relieve the local housing distress. Opposing Moyer's contentions was Charles Langer, president of the South Philadelphia Real Estate Board. He contended that realtors should not be blamed for the current housing situation. OTHERS FAVORING IT Mrs.

Hermine Mason, of the Family Society; W. William Barbour, representing the North Philadelphia Civic League, Wharton Settlement House and the Emergency Consumers' Qouncil; Maurice S. Burrison, of the American Veterans' Committee, and Mrs. Viola P. Allen, of the Philadelphia Federation of Negro Women's Clubs, urged adoption of the eviction ban.

Carter Rose, appearing for the Philadelphia Apartment Owners' Association; opposed it.

Dr. J. Jarden Guenther. rector of St. Peter's Episcopal Church and a spokesman for the association, charged the underpass was being built solely to accommcdate heavy trucks and without regard to the comfort or safety of nearby residents.

RI NS NEARBY PROPERTY The underpass is located beneath the Pennsylvania Railroad tracks at a point where Route 202, a north-south highway extending from Maine to Florida, joins the Lincoln Highway. The road was lowered just enough to permit heavy trucks to clear the underpass. Dr. Guenther said. "Not only does this so-called improvement endanger the lives of motorists and pedestrians," he said, "but it has ruined adjoining property because the highway is several feet above the entrances to some homes, while in other section there is a four-foot drop." PUPILS RISK LIVES Mrs.

Agnew Adams, director of a private school in Paoli, said school children risked their, lives by being forced to walk through the underpass en route to and from school. D. c. Stackpole, district engineer for the State Department of Highways, said work on the project was near completion. He said it had been approved by the Public Utility Commission and was intended to serve only until Route 202 is relocated.

The Paoli Association is urging residents to telegraph their protests to Governor Edward Martin.

3 by individuals from the United States to Italy have been stolen from the docks and peddled at high prices in the black market. SOLD ON BLACK JIARKET "Some hitherto unknown European agents, who have only two or three trucks, have solicited business from water freight shippers in the United States," Wolk said. "Occasionally, they may receive extra heavy shipments and it is not always possible with their limited facilities to get the cargoes off the docks before the time limit expires and additional charges are levied. "To save money, some of them sold what was left over to other haulers who diverted it into the black market." The campaigns to get food to the starving continue, however. One gift package firm has 14 agencies in Philadelphia alone and will soon purchase a warehouse here to handle its increasing business, it was learned by The Inquirer.

DANES SHIP FOOD In addition, many American" com-panies have commercial connections with food packers and shipping agencies in various European countries who accept cable and air-mail orders from agencies here for shipping larger packages than can be carried by the International Postal Union. Danish companies are receiving cabled orders for shipping packages into parts of Germany not yet open to American shipment, it also was learned by The Inquirer. These shippers forward their orders to their warehouses in Switzerland, where, it is reported, trucks are permitted to cross the border into Germany and make delivery. Besides using Switzerland as a forwarding point, other companies ship to Antwerp or to Cuba in order to avoid U. S.

commercial restrictions affecting shipments to Germany. DOORSTEP DELIVERY Other companies are doing a tremendous business sending large shipments to Italy for "doorstep delivery" by their agents in that country. Charles L. Saperstein. general manager of a food packaging service, belives these gift parcels are helping to build good-will for Americans.
