Eleanor Roosevelt, wife of the Presi-

present law was in Jeopardy, and by
her persuasive powers assured its en-
actment and the financing necessary
to accomplishment.
Both Of these women would join
us today in paying tribute to the third,
without whose tireless energy, whose
vision, whose love for the city in which
she spent her long and useful life,
whose constant thought and care for
the unfortunate among her fellow cit

being here today. It was she who
brought the alleys to the attention OF
Ellen Wilson and Eleanor Roosevelt,
aroused their interest, secured their
aid. 1t was she who persuaded the
National Capital Park and Planning
Commission to emphasize the word
housing in its charter.
TT was my pleasure to stand beside
the President of the United States
when he signed the alley dwelling act
and say to Mrs. Charlotte Everett
Hopkins: I guess this Is a happy
day for you
turn today when We are beginning
to realize that for which she fought
SO long. In memory of her, in recog-
nition-to a very high extent, of what
Washington owes her, the Alley

Cammerer Also Speaker.
John Ihlder, executive oricer Of
the authority, Of which Hazen Is
chairman, presided. Among the other
speakers were Arno B. Cammerer,
executive officer Of the National Cap
ital Park and Planning Commission:
Canon Anson Phelps Stokes, chair
man Of the Washington Committee
on Housing. which took an active
part in securing enactment Of the
law creating the authority, and DR..
Emmett j. Scott, secretary Of How
ard University. which always has been
interested in securing better hous-
ing for Negroes.
The Public Works Administration,
from which the authority derives its
funds, was represented by Howard A.
Gray, director of housing. He and
Cammerer are both members of the
authority.
The colony consists of II recondi-
toned homes and IL newly construct
ed homes, built by relief labor. The
cost of constructing the corner homes
ranged from $3,947 to $4,000, de-
pending on equipment. The interior
homes cost $3,707 and $500. With
four rooms, including unusually large
kitchens, generous closet space. elec-
trio lighting, built-in bath tubs, the
houses attracted the attention of a
number of private builders, who told
Ihlder they would consider duplicat-
ing them on cheaper sites.
The adjusted monthly rents vary
from $28.75 for the better corner
houses to $27.50. For interior houses
the rents range from $25.25 to $26.25.
The scale Of rentals for the recondi-
toned homes, it was said, runs about
50 more than the rent formerly paid
before they were modernized. With
running water, bath tubs and wood
stoves, they compare only q little less
favorably with the new ones. AL
the houses are equipped with ice
boxes.

"UNKNOWN" BOXERS
MEET IN RING BOUT
De Foe Ruled Choice Over Scott
as District Fistic Year Is
Opened Today.

WILLING. but unknown feather
w weights. Johnny DeFoe of New
York and Cowboy Howard Scott of
Texas, today were to usher In new
year of District boxing.
In the first afternoon fstic show
since at least legalization Of profess
sional boxing, they were to clash in
an eight-round bout at 3 o'clock in
Promoter Joe Turner's arena, Four
tenth and w streets.
DeFoe never has shown in Wash
ington and consequently local ring
worms have no line on him, except
that obtained through the medium of
poring over the New Yorker's record.
Except for one preliminary perform
ance, Scott has even less to recon-
mend him. the Cowboy debutted
here week ago and outlasted ancient
Eddie Burl.
DeFoe ruled something of a heavy
favorite in view of victories over Al
Roth, Leo Kodak, frankie Covelli,
Danny London, Lou Fox and Dick
welsh.
Three six-round bouts and a four
round opener were to round out, the
preliminary card. In the skies, Eddie
Burl was to face Tony Fernandez,
Billy Landers was to meet Sam Wise
and Cary Wright was to engage Eddie
Guerra. Sam Bacala and Stanford
Carrier were the opponents IN the
four-rounder.
