ATLANTA UNIVERSITY HOUSING PROJECT

Special to the Omaha Guide

ATLANTA, Georgia, September 90 (Special)-The Atlanta
University housing project, first Stun clearance end lowcost hous-
ing enterprise ever attempted by the federal government, was
the Interior Harold L. Ickes, in the presence of a vast gathering of
Atlanta citizens and students Of the local colleges pressed the lever
that dynamited the first house to be RACED on the 1S-acre tract. From
a vantage point on the campus of Spelman College, which faces the
housing site, thousands of persons heard Secretary Ickes extol the
institutions in whose neighborhood the federal government is build
ing its first model group Of houses, and watched with enthusiasm
and prolonged cheers the demolition of the first of the zoe dilapidat-
ed houses that are to be RACED.
Within an hour after the Atlanta University project had been
thus wildly brought to the attention Of the people of Atlanta, and
through the press, motion picture cameras, and news photographers,
to the attention of the nation and the world, Secretary lckes stepped
to a michrophone at the nearby Georgia School of Technology chapel
and in a nationwide broadcast delivered a stirring defense OF the
government program of Slum-clearance ad low-cost housing.
"Our smm clearance program will take no note Of race or creed
or color. [" he stated in his address to millions throughout the United
States. "We are particularly glad that the requests from Atlanta
for slum clearance have called for benefits for the entire population
Atlanta has been a pioneer along many progressive lines, and II 4
only fitting that the city which has been a leader IN lnter-raclal CO
operation should insist that all parts of its popufAtlon should DeneiI
from this new social venture. This reflects the spirit OF the New
Deal. We know, from experience, that when one section Or group
of the population floarishes at the expense OF others, It Is no long
before the whole country is the loser.
