To increase the food supply the
fish industry promised to increase

j. s. S[UM UNIT
|SURGEDBY |CKES
Proposes Permanent Group
to Settle LoW-Cost
Housing Problems.

Establishment Of a permanent ma
tional Federal housing authority was
urged by P. w. A. Administrator
Harold L. Ickes today as the solution
of the many conflicting problems
arising out of slum clearance and
low-cost housing programs.
Ickes believes a substantial revolv-
ing fund should be created by Con-
gress to carry out its purposes, but he
set no figure, explaining there was
mo limit to what could be done in
its clearance of Sums
The P. w. A. administrator pre-
dicted Congress eventually would
have to adopt some such policy to
end the confusion over Government
operations of low-cost housing.
There ought to be a permanent
Federal housing authority, with full
powers, to accomplish what we are
irving to exercise in P. w. A.. to MI
the homes with low-income groups.
Would Settle Taxes.
"In this way the Government could
resolve all questions concerning the
payments of taxes, rents, citizenship
and other problems involved in our
present program
Ickes' own sl30.OO0,00 slum clear
ance and low-cost housing program is
encountering difficulties in some mu-
inequalities because Federal-owneo
property is not subject to taxation
For this reason fire protection, police
| and other services have been refused
The immediate question before the
United States Supreme Court, which
| has been called on to decide the right
If the Government to condemn private
property for low-cost housing pur-
poses. however, will have no effect on
the AZ P. w. A. projects now under
way. The Government has bought all
the land outright for its huge housing
| program, so whatever decision the
court may render is of no present
| concern.
The fact that some 80 govern
mental agencies are now concerned
with housing and its problems was
cited as one reason why Congress
should legislate to establish uniform
housing law.
The Langston Terrace housing prof.
ect for colored families on the Ben.
ming road faces the same problems a.
those in other cities.
S. Per Room Unit.
Ickes said today his main objective
was to keep rents at a basis of SIS pei
room to meet the needs Of families
in income groups ranging from $500
to $l,400, which he conceived as the
average of prospective tenants.
Ickes said those able to pay more
rent would be barred from P. w. AS
development, and P. w. A. probably
would operate the developments until
the cost to the Federal Government,
was paid back.
I'VE are hoping, however. that
States having municipal authorities
will take over the developments and
operate Them" he said.
Reviving the dispute which fared
up more than a year ago with James
A. Moffett, then Federal housing ad-
ministrator, Ickes said F. H. A. isn't"
clearing any slums."
