Local PC Gannett Westchester Nov. Newspapers Wednesday, 14, 1979 SectionA GAS Continued from page one But the governors of New Jersey and Connecticut announced they had studied the situation and decided not to put odd-even back into effect immediately. Unlike New York, however, those states have retained minimumpurchase rules designed to prevent "topping off" cited by many officials as a cause of the long gas lines last spring and summer. While the governors were considering their next move, they got contradictory advice from the oil industry, service station, groups and the federal Department of Energy. Two DOE officials publicly painted differing pictures of the supply outlook.

In New York City, U.S. Energy Secretary Charles Duncan said no shortage would result if "all Americans were to drive three miles less per day." Such a reduction, he said, would completely make up the lost supply. Duncan said only a panic by motorists could bring a return to 1 the crisis conditions of last spring. But in a speech in Florida, U.S. Energy Undersecretary John M.

Deutch urged all states, particularly those in the Northeast, to institute odd-even restrictions and predicted "a shortfall within six weeks." "All states are going to have to put into effect some emergency conservation measures," Duncan said. Max Victor, head of the New York State Association of Service Stations, also was pessimistic about chances the U.S. could ride out the cutoff without serious impact. He said that supplies have remained tight since the end of the last shortage and that the cutoff could set off a new crisis. "We're sitting on a powderkeg right now," he said.

"We may see lines again in six weeks, perhaps as bad as last But Victor advised against an immediate return to the odd-even plan, saying "that could cause motorists to panic." Victor also said the Iranian cutoff would send gas prices soaring up to 10 cents a gallon by Jan. 1. The Auto Club of New York agreed with Victor's view on a return to odd-even, but was more hopeful a crisis could be averted. Spokesman Peter Hahn said it would be "premature" to return to odd-even and called on the public to reduce its driving, form car pools and use public transportation. Hahn said the current situation was unlike last spring's because "this time, there is a compelling reason for motorists' support." He said Americans were angry with Iran and predicted they would support Carter's aclion by voluntarily reducing gas consumption.

In -Westchester, the chairman of the county Board of Legislators, Andrew 0'Rourke, said Tuesday he is seeking a six-month extension of a local law mandating oddeven and minimum-sales restrictions. That law, technically still in effect in Westchester but not enforced, exbires on Dec. 20. O'Rourke said that while the law gives Westchester authorities the power to institute sales restrictions independently from the state, he didn't think the county would do so unless there is "a local shortage" not felt elsewhere. The law, which duplicates state restrictions, enables Westchester police agencies to do what the state is unable to do enforce the rules.

Westchester legislators will consider the extension proposal at their next meeting Thursday night. New York residents lose legal monopoly ALBANY (AP) Out-of-state lawyers will now find it easier to cash in on the lucrative legal business in New York state. The state's highest court struck down on Tuesday the rule giving New York residents the monopoly on getting licensed to practice law in the state. That law is believed to have generated much business for New York law firms, by forcing out-of-state companies or individuals with business before the New York courts to retain new lawyers within the state. In a unanimous decision, the Court of Appeals declared that the law is unconstitutional diseriminationagainst out-of-state residents.

It said the law, which requires lawyers to live in New Cork six months before they apply for admission to the bar, serves no purpose other than "to deny persons the to pursue their professional career objectives beright cause of parochial interests." The U.S. Constitution clearly prohibits such discrimination by a state against non-residents, said the court. The court ruling means that in the future lawyers who rant to be licensed in New York will still have to pass the bar examination and pass muster before a Commitlee on Character and Fitness, but will not have to estabIsh residence. Currently, once a lawyer is admitted to practice in New York he can live elsewhere. And out-of-state attorleys who are not licensed to practice in New York can, in special circumstances, present, cases in New York courts.

Courts Not guilty plea A New York City man accused of possessing a stolen gun in Harrison has pleaded innocent to weapons, stolen property and speeding charges. Charles Zito, 26, was arrested Aug. 2 when Patrolman Lawrence Leahy found a 9 mm-gun in his car after pulling him over for speeding on Union Avenue, police said. The gun had been stolen in Connecticut, police said. Zito entered the not guilty plea Oct.

31 during arraignment before state Supreme Court Justice Isaac Rubin on five-count indictment. Rubin set a deadline of Dec. 28 for determination of readiness for trial. Zito is free on $1,000 bond.

First, the general appearance of apartments will go down rents can be controlled but prices can't. Owners are going to try and cut every possible corner because there is no longer a free-market situation. "Second, there will be an increase in certiorari suits. Taxation on apartments is not based on brick-and-mortor assessments, but on rental income, and if rental income goes down, so will the tax rolls." Rent controls however would not lower rental income, simply limit its increase. Dorothy Reiser, the village's deputy development director, investigated the question for the trustees, studying how ETPA and local rent agreements, had fared in other communities around the county.

Specifically, she looked at programs in Yonkers, Larchmont and Bronxville. Bronxville has a local agreement while both Yonkers and Larchmont voted for ETPA but with local provisions that made rent increases lower than those set by the county rent board. Larchmont provides an interesting case particularly. That village enacted a local fair rent agreement in 1975 as an alternative to ETPA. Yet at the urging of tenants three years later, the local Continued from page one agreement was not renewed past its expiration date and the Larchmont village board voted for ETPA.

Interentingly, ETPA an election issue that year in Larchmont -as it might in the special trustee election set for Dec. 6 in Port Chester. dent Richard Nixon in 1971. After the removal of wage and price controls, Yonkers opted for ETPA. Bronxville retains a Fair Rent Agreement, and Mayor James Gordon said there is little need for ETPA there.

"We don't have that many apartment buildings to begin with, so the voluntary controls have worked out satisfactorily." In the matter of court-ordered reassessments, or certorari suits, other communities that have invoked ETPA say it is almost impossible to determine how many are related to rent curbs. Mamaroneck Town Attorney James Johnsonn said the certarari suits leveled against the town since it invoked ETPA in 1976 were "not exclusively" connected with ETPA. "Since the economy has charged to dramatically over the past few years, you can't" attribute any par- Yonkers had a voluntary Fair Rent Agreement before the imposition wage and price controls by former Presi- ticular number of certorari suits to ETPA. Larchmont Attorney George Forbes said that village's adoption of ETPA in 1978 "doesn't make that much differ-(the number of certorari suits) could be related to other matters." According to Harrison Assistant Town Attorney Arthur Schrier only one ETPA-connected certiorari suit has been brought against the town. In December 1977, the town agreed to a $216,740 assessment reduction on Chester Soling's Park Knoll Apartments in West Harrison.

Soling had filed for a $312,240 reduction. Another factor the Port Chester trustees will be considering is whether they want to administer a local program, although Village Manager Michael Ritchie says administration of the AOAC proposals as it now stands wouldn't be that difficult because it would only apply to buildings with moe than 25 units. It could not be determined if the village trustees would make a decision on the rent-control matter tonight. They have recently made public statements that indicate they may be leaning toward ETPA. And their decision could be affected by an outpouring of tenants at tonight's meeting.
