HOUSING EXPERTS
TALK YARDST|CK'
Roosevelt Discusses Plans
With Aides to Expedite
Program.
By the Associated Press.

Dy sAAo AcoOSAhtS0 EAGeos
The Administrations new housing
program was step nearer completion
today after experts had discussed with
President Roosevelt yesterday the crea-
tion of q 'yardstick" to measure build
ing needs in various sections.
Those present at the White House
conference reported they hoped to
round out the program soon-in all
probability before Mr.. Roosevelt leaves
next week for a Florida vacatior-and
draft a bill for Congress.
Experts Long at Odds.
The experts have long been at odds
over the scope of the long time slum
clearance, low-cost housing program,
which Is to be tied in with a broad
plan to stimulate private construction
Of homes costing less than $1,000
Discussion at the conference. Federal
Housing Administrator Steward Nc
Donald said. was focused on the vari-
ance between building costs in various
sections.
I'VE think about providing houses
costing under $1,000" he said, but
there is a great difference between a
$4,000 house in New England and a
similar house in Florida or Southern
Alabama, where you do not need heat
ing systems and where costs may be
lower"
Mcdonald said these variations
could be adjusted in part through reg
ulations Of the Housing Administra-
ton, but indicated further study Of
the question would be needed.
Useless Ideas to Go.
The housing advisors, he continued,
now are working toward "the gradual
elimination of ideas that may be en-
tertaining, but not particularly useful"
Besides Mcdonald, those present at
the conference included Gov. Mariner
EccleS of the Federal Reserve Board /;
Peter Grimm, Treasury housing ex-
pert; Jesse H. Jones of the r. F. c.
and Chairman John Fahey of the Fed
eral Home Loan Bank Bonds.
Another conference is planned for
