Work; More Money
Sought for Little Busi-
ness

Washington, June 22.-(AP)
President Roosevelt proposed
to Congress today a $3,860,O00,-
900 program for stimulating
business through self-liquidat-
ing projects and loW-cost hous-
ing developments.
The President estimated that
at least $87O,O0O,OOO would be
dispersed in federal loans dur
ing the year starting July 1.
The remainder Of the program,
split into six heights of self
liquidating projects, would con-
tinue for from two to seven
years.
The President said that in the long
run the program would not cost the
taxpayers a cent, so far as self-li-
quidating projects were concerned.
He outlined his proposals in letter
to Chairman Byrnes, Democrat,
South Carolina, chairman of the Sen
ate unemployment committee, and
sent copies to other Senate and
House leaders.
Mr.. Roosevelt explained that there
would be limit on the self-liquidat-
ing projects of $3,060,0 100000 over
the two to seven year period which
their construction would embrace,
and as money came in from loans it
would be put out again as needed
to stimulate employment and bust
ness.
Another 100000 would be ad-
ded to the borrowing capacity of the
IT,. S. Housing Authority under the
Presidents plan. Mr.. Roosevelt said
he could not state how much of this
would be used during the next fiscal
year, but that the money would be
applied to providing low-cost homes
for persons with incomes in the ST.
$50 to $4,000 class. These are not
covered by either the present slum-
clearance program or the FEIA op-
erations, Mr.. Roosevelt said.
