WOULD REVISE
LAWS TO help
new STIMULUS
6.Point Program Depends
on Cooperation Of In
dustry and Labor
OUTLINED IN SPECIAL
MESSAGE TO SOLONS

WASHINGTON, Nov. 20. (UP)
President Roosevelt today at noon
submitted a specia! message TO
congress calling for a revision OF
the present housing legislation 10
stimulate $l2,000,000,000 TO &c.
600, 100000 construction boom To
be financed by private capital over
a five.year period. The presidents
message said that effectiveness Of
the stimulus to construction would
depend mainly on the cooperation
of industry and labor. He pro-
posed:
/. That the expiration date for
the Federal Housing administra-
tons activities be extended in
definitely:
2. Encouragement Of national
mortgage associations by allowing
the sale Of debentures up TO a 20
TO ! ratio TO their capital;
3. Extension of FILA features
to allow for an increase of small
property loans from 80 to 80 per
cent and reduction of interest
rates from 6 Ia to 5 Ia, depend
ing on property evaluation;
4. Expansion Of FILA to cover
loans up to 100000 on large
scale building projects, instead of
the present $4,000 limitations;
5. Liberalization of the exist
ing limited dividend requirements
of the act;
6. Revival OF insurance provi-
sions for repair and moderniza-
ton loans similar to those pro-
vided by the FILA up to last
April.
In his special message prepared
before he left on a Florida fishing
trip, the president attributed the
current trade recession largely to
the lag in building which follow
ed a "far too sharp increase in
housing costs between September,
1896, and March, 1887, and en-
phasized that a construction boom
is vital part of his program to
increase general business activity
and employment.
He said that "private enterprise
and private capital must bear the
burden of providing the great
bulk of new housing" The gov
eminent, however, he said, can
aid in three ways:
/. Reduce financing costs:
2. Broaden the scope of dwell
ings entitled to mortgage inSur-
ance;
3. Increase the availability of
funds of institutional and indi-
vidual investors for financing Of
large-scale building operations.
To effectuate this part OF the
program Mr.. Roosevelt asked that
congress amend the national hous-
ing act promptly and disclosed
that he has directed the Recon
struction Finance corporation to
make $50,000,000 available as
capital for the organization and
financing of national mortgage as
sociations.
The president said that 3,00O,-
900 or 100000 housing units.
at an estimated cost Of $4,000 u
unit, could be built over the next
five years without creating a sur
plus of accommodations and with
out impairing the value of exist
ing property that is fit for de-
cent human occupancy" He warn
ed that the long-continued lag in
building is a drag on all indus
try and trade" and that it "pre-
sents an urgent problem which is
the common concern of industry,
