HOME OWNERSHIP
ACT is HANDLED
BY COMMISSION

"The county attorneys office has
nothing whatever to do with the dis
tribution of state funds in connection
with the Home Ownership act" said
VIM. Stacey, assistant county attor-
ney this morning.
Continuing he said, From a false
statement printed in an Oklahoma
City paper, we have been greatly
troubled by people who desise infor-
nation in regard to this act. The
paper stated in effect that the coun-
ty attorneys office in each county
would assist the people in securing
funds through the Home Ownership
act. This is in error. The county
attorneys office> has nothing to do
with this work. The act provides
that in each county, a commission OF
three will be appointed by the gov
ernor for this purpose. So Jas as
know the commission ir Grady coun
ty has not been appointed. People
have been coming to our office in
droves en- account of the error"
