VISIONS HOUSING
AKIN TO 17DD'S
Straus Sees Greater Civic
Consciousness Amonu
Project Citizens.

Administrator Nathan Straus Of the
United States Housing Authority yes
terday visualized the Government'a &
$500 100000 program for rehousing
slum dwellers as dotting America with
hundreds Of small communities some
what akin in spirit to New England
village life in the 18th century.
Community life in the Government
financed housing projects, he be-
lleves, Is rapidly developing an under
standing OF social relationships which
must inevitably lead to a heightening
of civic consciousness and RESPONSE
bility.
L have long been Of the convic-
ton that, within the boundaries Of
modern chronological advancement,
life in a properly managed low-rent
housing project can and should have
the spirit and leisure of the America
OF yesteryear," MrStrauss said. I'm
our villages Of the 18th century, life
centered around the village green with
Its games, sports and amusements.
Group life dominated social relation
ships. And in every phase OF activity
were the evidences of mutual under
standing Of civic consciousness. It
was out Of these roots that America
grew and nourished."
Mr.. Straus made his views known
at the closing session of the Man
asement Training Institute of.the Ma
tional Association Of Housing Officials
conducted by U. s. H. A. for the last
10 days. Seventy-five delegates at
tended. many Of them being engaged
IN managing and operating the Gov
ernment's housing projects.
Coleman Woodbury., executive officer
OF the association, sponsored the meet
g.. ing. Among speakers were John Ihlder
executive of1cer of the Districts Alley
Dwelling Authority, and Roy S. Braden,
community manager at Greenbelt, Md
The conduct and management of
community life in the hundreds of
prospective Government planned hous-
ing developments is perhaps the most
important phase Of this far-flung ex-
pertinent, speakers said
Mr.. Straus emphasized as the i'm
portant function of the successful
manager: He must not only encour-
age the individual to express every
thing within himself, but also help him
to realize that he Is a vital part of the
community as a whole"
The man who is directing the
largest slum clearance and housing
program ever initiated by any Govern
ment disclaimed that such hopes and
aims constitute 'idealistic dreaming"
Principal subjects discussed at the
institute sessions pertained to man.
agement problems prior to the opening
Of housing project, tenant selection.

ties, personnel management and re-

him not to do so, states that the
