Government and not the individual should bear the bulk of
the burden The law of supply and demand be for
gotten.
The theory that the Government should not interfere
with private enterprise must be abandoned The idea that
if Uncle Sam goes into private business he must make
money out of it. must be passed by This must be reme
bered and observed:
THE THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE HERE IN WASH
INGTON, MANY OF THEM DOING THE WORK OF
THE GOVERNMENT, MUST FAVE A HEALTHFUL
PLACE TO LIVE WITHIN THE LIMITS OF THEIR
ABILITY TO PAY.
In the present emergency can see but one solution
That is for Government to go right out frankly on
big scale and build houses and apartments and them
reasonable rates. if such action involves financial
loss
There aren't enough houses and apartments in
town
The Individual can't afford to build, buy or
pay the rents that new property, privately owned
must have.
Private, enterprise probably won't provide
enough space, anyway, even at high rentals.
Is there any answer except for Government to
step in and do the job?
