RIGGS BANK HEAD
LIKES HOUSING BILL
Fleming Cautions House
Group, However, About Put
tina Interest Too Low.

Robert Y. Fleming, president ol
Riggs National Bank of Washington
and former president of the American
Bankers Association, indorsed the ad-
ministration's bill to stimulate pri-
vate financing of housing today. but
cautioned against putting the interest
rate too low.
Testifying before the House Bank.
ing Committee, Mr. Fleming declared
however, that an upturn in home
building must await an upturn in
business.
People with small incomes must
have stability of employment before
they are willing to invest in homes
he explained. Too low an interest
rate, he pointed out, would make home
loans unattractive, particularly to
smaller financial institutions.
Meanwhile, Stewart Mcdonald, Fed
eral Housing Administrator, urged be-
fore the Senate Banking Committee
that Congress act at once on legisla-
tion to stimulate private building.
Tax Exemption Asked.
The housing administrator sug.
gested that provision be made in the
pending bill for exemption from Fed.

mortgage associations These asso.
Citations would buy Government-in
sured mortgages. Mr.. Mcdonald said
and thereby increase the liquidity o
the mortgages.
A profit-sharing plan between capi.
tai and labor in the building industry
was suggested as means of pre-.
venting labor disputes by Charles Gar
rison Meyer. New York builder. an
other witness before the Senate com
mittee
He told the committee he would lik
to see construction projects start .ou
on such basis if agreement could b.
made and carried out with responsible,
LABOR unions. Previously, he had de
scrlbed how jurisdictional disput,
between two labor unions had addet
to the cost of one project in New
York.
Senator Barkley, Democrat, of Ken
lucky said he had heard a great dea
of talk about legislation to make labo
unions responsible. but was curious Il
know what advocates of such a ste,
had in mind, He inquired if it mean
requiring unions to show a certain
amount of financial ability.
Make Labor a Partner.
II would not care if they did no
have much money if they would sticl
to their contracts" Mr.. Meyer re-
piled.
Senator Barkley pressed the wit
ness as to what he would propose a
the remedy.
The only remedy I see is an in
centive for profit in the enterprise
Mr.. Meyer answered. Il would lik
TO take labor in as a partner for tn
life of project"
John L. Lewis, Committee for In
dustrial Organization leader, had beel
scheduled to testify today, but Chair
man Wagner announced he was pre-
vented from appearing by conference
relating to the anthracite coal indus
try and would file his views on tn
housing bill later.
