\. !. PROJECTS
FAIL PWA D, K.

Two New York private housing
projects. involving expenditure OF
nearly 100000 today were dis
approved by the Public Works Ad-
ministration, chiefly because OF
"lack of funds"
The projects were the Rutgers
town and Queenstown loW-cost
housing ventures designed to
Ameliorate unsafe and unsanltary
living conditions in two OF New
York's worst slum centers.
Sponsored by the RutgerStoWn
CORPORATION, a limited dividend
organization, the first project
carried an estimated cost OF $40
500, ,OOO-of which $40, 900 had
been requested as a loan from
the Federal Government-and the
second an estimated cost OF $46,-
$50, 800, of which $39,831 900 had
been asked as a Government
loan.
In a letter to the corporation,
Administrator IckeS pointed out
that both projects possessed Job
vious merits" although certain
scaling down Of costs would be
necessary if funds were avail
able-which, Ickes added, at pres
ent is not the case.
Both projects had been under
investigation since May % by
the PWA board Of review.

Children's Party

Dear Mrs. Beeckman:
I would like to have a birth
day party for my 12-year-old
daughter. Would it be proper
for me to invite six boys and six
girls to the theater and then to
dinner? My apartment is very
small.
Or could you perhaps suggest
something else? S.
Since your guests are to be
such young girls and boys, it
would be more aph hropriate for
you to invite them to luncheon,
and then a matinee, or to the
matinee first and then to a "tea-
