houses were underway.
Many of the new play houses are
wiping out old flats and dwellings ur-
gently needed for homes, social wei.
fare investigators declare ,and as re-
suit the housing shortage is becoming
more acute.
The theater builders assert that tbs
immense sums pouring into places O
amusement are justified as the new
