The District of Columbia led all

number Of new residential dwelling
units authorized in November, accord
ing to building permit records an
nounced by the Federal Home Loan
Bank Board today. New York State
and California were the only States
to exceed the District during the
month.
Building permits covering 928 family
dwelling units to cost s3,576,000 were
issued in the District in November, as
compared with 456 units, totaling
81 ,263 100, in November, 1885. Among
the States, New York led with 2,764
units, California was second with
2,308 and Texas was fourth with 1923
units. The rate Of increase for the
month, as compared with November.
1885, was substantially greater in the
District than for the country as o
whole.
The cost of residential units built
last year in the District Of Columbia
up to December was approximately
5000 900. which Is so per cent more
than for all of 1885, the report states.
Foreclosures in the District for the

cent fewer than in the same period of
1895, it was also reported by the Fed

compares with an average foreclosure

Since the depression more build
ings have been demolished than built
in many cities, but the population con-
tinues to increase" Mr.. Feiss con-
tinues. What Is more important,
the number Of families continues to
increase.
Shortage Acute Now.
THAT Is why there is much to be
said for the Federal Government en-
tering the low-cost housing field at
this time. The housing shortage Is
already acute; few municipalities or
private corporations are capable Of
handling the problem. Who else is
going to be responsible for the low
income groups? We may object to
paternalism, but the proper shelter
must be supplied to these people.
America has never been able to
house the lowest income groups prop
erly with private capital. The lower
income groups were estimated by the
Brookings Institution to consist Of fam.
lilies of two or more persons. with an
income of $500 per year or less.
Twelve million families, or more than
AZ per cent Of our population, have
incomes of less than $500. And
in 1880 ~ per cent Of our popula-
ton were living In cities Of 5000 pop
ulation or over.
During the depression the move
ment to the city was reversed for q
short time, but the trend Is again
the other way. It is hard to say wha,
actual percentage of our low-income
population lives in the cities. Vast
areas Of low-rental obsolete houses
exist in the slums, however, and
blighted areas of every city house
