TALK PLANS
FOR 1910
BY WILLIAM s. NEAL
International News Service

Republican leaders in Congress
today planned to assume leader
ship in a movement to develop a
party program on which it can
seek victory in the 1910 presiden-
tial election.
A series of conferences between
Senator Charles McNary of Ore
ason and Representative Bertrand
H. Smell. Republican leaders of
Senate and House, respectively,
will start the movement.
Conferences of the Republican
members of both chambers are
slated just before Congress con-
venes, January 8.
Aroused by Hamilton
The task of rebuilding the party
was thrust upon the Republicans
on Capitol Hill by Republican Ma
tional Chairman John D. M. Ham
ilton. Smell said:
$50 far as 1 am concerned,
am willing to assume my full
share of the responsibility. I am
sure that others will do likewise.
"The Republican party is not
dead. The party'S candidates
for the House pOlled nineteen
million votes and exceeded the
Presidential vote of the party
candidate by two million. The
Harding, Coolidge and first
Hoover popular votes showed q
greater percentage for them
than the last election did for
President Roosevelt"
A battle over the future trend
Of the party was assured in the
House and also was likely to de-
velop among separate Republi-
cans.
BOrah Has Program
Smell and McNary were expected
to counsel a "middle-of-the-road"
policy, with emphasis upon win
ming the farm States back to the
party.
Senator Borah of Idaho is ex-
pected to present a program for
rehabilitation of the party soon
after Congress convenes.
Meantime, Smell forecast mill
tant attitude upon the part of
House Republicans. He said they
would accept all administration
proposals believed to be sound but
would oppose "log rolling and
granting of a BLANK check" to
the President.

The prices Of building materials in
September were. on the average, %

were 81 per cent lower than in 1929.
The price Of cement in September
was higher than In 1929, but the
prices Of all other principal mate
riab were below the pre-depression
level.
The rise in the cost of building
since 1882 has not prevented an ex-
pansion in the volume Of building,
because 1t has been accomplished by
q rise in rents. The cost of building
in September, however, was rela-
lively much higher than rents. a dis
crepancy which helps to account for
the fact the building activity Is still
far below the pre-depression rate
despite the upward .trend for nearly
three years. 1t Is now questionable
whether rents will advance much
during the coming year. This sug-
gests that a further expansion OF
building will be retarded until build
ing costs are lowered.

WOMEN PREPARE
FOR SLUM DRIVE
Committee of 100 to Make
Exhaustive Study of Low

In preparation for . national drive
on Congress for slum clearance and
better housing, Women's Committee
Of One Hundred, which will supple
ment the work of the National Public
Housing Conference. will make an in
tensive study of slum clearance and
Iow-rent housing.
The first round-table discussion
group met in New York on Tuesday Of
this week. Fannie Hurst. who has &C
cepted the Craftsmanship OF the ma
tional committee, presided. THE
Why and How Of Slum Clearance and
Rehousing" was the subject Of the dis
eussion.
The basis for the discussion was
laid down by Mary Hillyer, field Sec
retary of the League for Industrial
Democracy; Evans Clark. director Of
the Twentieth Century Fund, and
Langdon Post, chairman of the New
York City Housing Authority.

In announcing the committees for
nation. Mrs. Mary K. Simkhovitch,
president of the National Public
Housing Conference. said:
"The deplorable lack of under
standing Of the housing problem re-
vealed during the Senate debate of
the Wagner bill indicates how much
educational work we still have to do.

In Washington.
We need a bill which will be
clear-cut, uncompromising attack on
slums. If we are to get the kind Of
bill we want at the next session OF
Congress, much interpretive work
must be done on Capitol Hill
President Roosevelt has committed
himself and his party to a definite
housing plan, and the peoples in
dorsement has proved so sweeping
that Congress should not hesitate to
consider it a mandate. He voiced the
feelings of every one who knows the
social implications Of bad housing
when he said. We need action and
more action to get better city hous-
ing. We have for too long neglected
the housing problem for all our lower
income groups. You and I will not
be content until city, State and Fed
eral Governments join with private
capital in helping every American
family to live as American citizens

Each Woman an Agent.
I'VE expect each of the women who
participate in the study group to be-
come an effective agent in the final
