Psychologists Plan
Study for Rehousing
Effect on Families
U. S. Coils on Experts
To Make Comprehensive
Survey of Projects
BY HOWARD w. BIAKESLEE,
Associated Press Science Writer.

CHICAGO, Sept. 3.-The greatest
human laboratory in the United
States, the Federal rehousing In the
lower economic third. was opened to
American psychologists today for
scientific work.
The aim Is to find out how much
good has been done, the drawbacks,
Improvements in methods, and ef-
fects whether good or i'll on other
parts of the American community.
The call to the psychologists, 1000
of whom are meeting at Northwest
ern University this week, was made
by J. B. Mailer, chief of social re-
search, United States Housing Au-
thority, Washington. In his abb
sence S. C. Menefee, Washington,
laid the plan before the American
Association for Applied Psychology,
and heard suggestions about what
can be done.
Rare Human Laboratory.
This is one of the rarest human
laboratories ever offered to science,
the scholars said, because for every
500 families who obtained better
housing in each area, there are at
least as many of precisely the same
status even to numbers of children,
who failed.
The two groups can be compared,
and gains measured with unusual
accuracy. Things to be studied in
clude the effect of the better homes
on delinquent children, on person.
ality changes, and what is done with
the extra money that comes from
lower rents in these project homes
One of the psychologists cited his
experience with new apartments,
where he said there was attractive
architectural decoration and places
for overstuffed chairs, but no where
to study or write.
1t was proposed to find out how
businessmen In the neighborhoods
are affected, the influence on real
estate, on neighbors, and whether
there are changes in the outlook of
the rehoused families themselves.
Mixing Of Social Strata.
Influence of better housing on
morale in national defense was
another proposal for scientific analy-
sis. What happens, the psychol-
ogiSts asked; to families who are
moved out of slums, during the in
terval before they can come back to
better, cheaper quarters?
A mixing OF social strata on an
unprecedented scale was pointed
out in those areas where the re-
housing has been taken over by two
groups, one from slums, which
stepped upward, and the other, for
merly well-to-do, which had lost
everything and thus stepped down.
Housing authority is building,
with cooperation of local officials,
$4,000 units, of which one-third
Is complete, one-third is building
and one-third contemplated.
Before and after studies in one
such case already have started in
Denver.
