PUBLIC HOUSING PROJECTS

More than 10000 low-income
families who formerly dwelt in
slum tenements and shacks today
are residing in decent, safe and
sanitary living quarters in public
housing projects administered by the
United States Housing Authority,
according to a year-end reca pitula-
ton made public by Nathan Straus,
USHA Administrator. In 1889 thous-
ands more will migrate from the
slums into decent low-rent homes.
At present, twelve large low
rent housing projects to provide
about 5000 new homes, are under.
construction contracts and during
1899, it is estimated that construc-
ton will be started on between 75s-
900 and $4,000 additional homes.
This building program will pro-
vide millions of man-hours of labor
of veritable army of workers and
will provide new homes for thous-
ands of underprivileged families
whose average annual incomes will
range from $1,000 down to $3.50 y
year. Shelter rentals in the new pro-
jects will range from So per month
for dwelling unit in the South to
$40 per month in the larger north-
ern industrial cities.
Mr.. Straus pointed to the increase
in the number of local housing au.
thorities during the year just clos.
ed as indicative of the enthusiasm
with which the National slum-clear.
ance and rehousing program Is be.
ing received from coast to coast.
A year ago, there 46 local public
housing agencies; to day there are
221. To date, 140 low-rent housing
projects in 20 cities and two coun-
ties in % States, the District Of
Columbia and the Territory OF
Hawai- are under contract fsr USHA
loans Wotaling $32O,9S6,OO0. These
loans represent 80 per cent Of the
cost of the projects. In addition,
1913 communities have received ear
markings of $328,S03,O00, making
a grand total of $649,7S9,000 SO
far committed by the USHA.
The demand of local housing au-
thorities for USHA financial aid in
clearing their slums and rehousins
families of low income has been so
great that all USHA loan funds
have been committed and there Ia
great untitled demand for more
funds and more projects.
To date, Administrator Straus has
approved construction contracts tot.
alling $2S,964,621 for IL projects
inaugurated under the USHA pro-
gram in eight cities to be built at
a total development cost Of $45.4
3S4.201.

NATIONAL TRUCK WEEK

AS the worlds largest producer
not only of passenger cars but Of
trucks, Chevrolet is taking the in
itiative this month in a move de-
signed to focus interest of CONNER
cial vehicle users on their transpor.
tation needs. The program will take
the form of a National Truck Week
Jan. IA to Jan. FL, plans for which
are being completed by w. q. Fish
commercial car and truck sales
manager of Chevrolet.
The company's entire organiza-
ton, wholesale and retail, will be
enlisted in the campaign, Mr.. Fish
said. details of the operation were
worked out in Detroit, Dec. 20, at
a. meeting of regional truck manag-
ers, representing the wholesale or
ganization from coast to coast.
These men carried back to the field
the outline of the various promo
tional activities and material which
will be distributed to all Chevrolet
dealers and statesmen.
Thirty thousand special messages
will go out to fleet users from coast
to coast in advance of the event, in
viting them to view the special
truck displays which dealers are
setting up in their dealerships in
scores of cities across the country.
In many instances, manufacturers
of equipment are cooperating in the
program, exhibiting specialized
equipment like that which made
Chevrolets big space at the Nation
al Truck Show in New York on Of
the main interest centers in that
exposition.
"The thought behind National
Truck Week." said Mr.. Fish. sis to
lend further impetus to the move
ment, already under way, cor con-
certed business revival in 1899. At
the very start of the year, when
budgets are being worked out, we
are calling truck users attention to
leir transportation needs. We are
going about it Systematically to
prove that in great many instances
operators will save money by judici-
GUS investment in better transporta-
zion units, new or used.
During a period of depression,
.ruck operators, like passenger car
owners, naturally tended to neglect
he matter of requirements. Trucks
hat would in normal times have
given place to more efficient units
we're continued in service, frequent
" without adequate maintenance
work. The result is very extensive
replacement market now exists at
he very time when most Indications
point to a general business up-turn.
National Truck Week is careful
.y-thought out effort to show truck
Jwners what they stand to gain by
undermining their equipment in pre-
)aration for 1899. AS nigh. be ex-
pected, strong emphasis is being
placed on the new units, both con-
yentional and cab-over-engine, which
the company presented at the Auto
| Shows. The latter line has caught
on especially well, dealers report
Buyers esem greatly impressed al
the small additional cost of the ex
ira load-space which Chevrolet's cab
over engine models provide, as wei
as by the lengths to which the en-
Igineers have gone in building safe
lty, comfort, and operation ease int
these new units"
