WASHINGTON, July INA
tional experiments in colonization,
population-shifting, and vocational
training will be undertaken at once
under the recovery acts provisions
for slum elimination and subsistence
farm projects.
President Roosevelt is expected to
decide today or tomorrow which will
be the first undertakings under the
slum abatement provision, and how
the $25,000,000 set aside for sub
sistence farms will be spent.
According to Robert David Kohn,
the governments new housing ad-
ministrator, four plans are being
considered under the $25,000,000
clause. These are:
l. Farm colonization, along lines
being attempted privately in North
Carolina and by the state of Cali
fornia. DR.. Elwood Mead, United
States reclamation chief and father
of the two California state farm
colonization projects, probably would
direct such projects.
Suburban Colonies Planned
2. Suburban industrial homesteads
to be built on government credit in
suburbs of Detroit, Cleveland and
other Industrial centerS, where
families could live on small garden
farms and work in nearby factories.
g. Colonization of Tennessee val
ley jewellers now being moved away
from government reservoir and dam
sites and out of forest lands to
make way for power and reforesta-
ton development.
A. ReSettlement Of miners of Ken
lucky, West Virginia and other coal
states. Many mines have shut down
permanently, leaving miners fam
lilies in the coal "coveS" to live on
charity.
Kohn said today that he will work
with the federal relief administra-
ticn in seeking to move families to
better land, aid in rehousing them,
and making their lives more secure.
Also, he said, it would be necessary
to aid many in vocational training.
A sprinkling of skilled mechanics
may be colonized within the I'M
skilled.
Against Great Tenements
In considering the scores of slum
abatement projects now before him,
Kohn says he is determined that
the government will not encourage
the rebuilding of great tenements
on high-priced downtown sites.
Rather, he said it favors the build
ing of smaller buildings on cheap
er land. This would insure cheap
er rents and Semi-ruraI surround
ings.
1t is absurd to build tall tene-
ments on $18-a-square foot land
when land farther out can be Dur
chased for IS cents to 81 a square
foot" he said. so far as 1 am
concerned, twelve-story tenements
are out. They ought not be high
er than five stories"

could they cure diabetic men and

They did not know until young

They shot the extract into him.
They called it isletin then, and
