Tenants League to Enlist All Sufferers and Strike Blow May 1, Says Sponsor. A league to protect the rights of tenants is to be formed in Brooklyn. Everybody who pays rent will be eligible for membership. It will seek the co-operalion of every tenant who has been a victim of profiteering, and as soon as possible will launch a unified effort to put Hi- profiteering landlord out of business. The organizer Is Nomer L.

Gray of 1013 Prospect who is president of the Association of Men Teachers and Principals of the City of New York, and secretary of the National Educator Conservation Society. He has been promised the co-operation of the Mayor's Committee on Rent. Profiteering, and has the support of Senator Bernard .1. Dowling of Manhattan. An organization meeting will be called next week.

This will probably be at Mr, Gray's home because he says no landlord will let him use any hall or other room for tills purpose. "If my landlord wants to dispossess me because I hold the meeting in my home, let him go ahead and try iL I'll risk the chance," he said. An agreement of all members not to renew leases on a protlteering basis will be the weapon with which the league expects to fight the high "Mi 1 is the Zero Hour, when we id if large enough number league we can net with effect, oris cannot evict all the people. see the biggest b. profiteering In 1 n-ganlzation has am leadership."
