obstacles which prevent workers gen.

the fact that for every decent apart

workers who need them but who can't
pay the price.

WPA Slashes Are Bar
To New Harlem Houses

NEW YORK, July (Ben Davis, Jr.,
for CNA)-Caught in the avalanche OF
WPA dismissals, numerous applicants
for apartments in the new federal
built Harlem River Houses, fear that
their dreams of moving out of the
community's slum-areas will 60 up in
smoke.
The exact extent to which the re-
cent wholesale slashes of WPA per-
sonnet is affecting the successful 574
applicants to the Houses could not be
fully ascertained from official sources
but it was grudgingly admitted by
those in authority that it was some
what of a factor" Some of the pro-
spective tenants have been waiting to
years.
AT least two units of the mammoth
project, comprising "a apartments, will
be ready for occupancy the first week
in August. Three apartments furnish
ed bv downtown stores were open for
exhibition. They have the facilities
Harlem tenants hope for: full of light,
sunshine, good ventilation and well ar
ranged. Furnishings are estimated to
run from $29s to 64oO for g. and q
room apartments.
There is at present waiting list of
1854 applicants for the 574 apartments,
occupy the Houses for more than two
indicating that this project does not
even begin to fill the urgent need OF
Harlem housing. The project how
ever with its relatively low-cost rentals
is creating a yardstick by which Ne
gro tenants are measuring the exorbi-
tant rentals exacted by Harlem land-
lords for thousands of apartments not
fit for humn habitation.
One woman inspecting the neat and
spacious apartments and comparing
them with Harlem's fire-traps remark

in the magazines, don't they?? A

5000 DETROIT TENANTS
JOIN HIGH RENT FIGHT

DETROIT, July-Iawrence Emery
for CNA)-"Detroit's intolerable rent
situation hits the Negro people hard
est of all, but they can be expected to
Work, well-known Negro leader ana
vice president of the Consolidated Ten
ants League here.
We've taken in over 5000 applica-
tons for membership in the last two
months" he said.
The Consolidated Tenants League is
centered mainly in the East Side slum
area, and the bulk of its membership
is made up of Negro workers. The
organization has gone on record for
affiliation with the city-wide Renters
and Consumers League being formed
with the backing of the United Auto
mobile Workers Union.
A recent open air meeting in Ne
gro neighborhood in support of the
Tenants League gave evidence of the
intense interest with which the people
are supporting the growing campaign
| against high rents.
Well over 100 men, women and
children crowded the corner to applaud
the speakers and to sign up in the or
ganization. Persons in the audience
were called upon to mount the platform
and relate their experiences with the
gouging landlords of the city.
Rent Trebled
A woman got up and told how her
rent had been boosted time after time
| until it is more than times what it
was in July last year.
Il started out paying $l2 per month";
she said Then it was raised to SIS,
then to $40, and from there to SIS, and
! finally SIS month. Now the land
lord is asking us to pay $40, and we
just can't do it. We've got to stop
this robbery.
A white man in the audience aist
took the platform to relate a similar
experience. "My rent was also $l2
month";" he said "but last year the
landlord raised it to SIS. When we
complained, he told us that if we did
not like it we could move, because he
could get Negroes to move in who
would be glad to pay the rent.
This meeting" he continued, "is
proof that the Negro people aren't glad
to pay such rents. None of us are.
All they're trying to do is pit us against
each other. We've got to get together.
Negro and white, and put up solid
front against the big landlords who
are profteering on the hides of all of
U.S."
Negro tenant organizations have al
ready chalked up partial victory at
ter year long campaign to get work
started on Federal government low
cost housing project in the heart of
the slum area.
