Breaking Their Own Rules

DECISION of the Detroit Housing Commission per-
II hitting $50 tenants in the Brewster and Parksde
housing projects TO remain in their apartments even
though their incomes exceed those permitted project
residents Is not that will find favor with Detroits
private fenter-faced with rising rents and difficulty in
finding suitable quarters.
The housing commission is violating the basic
tenet of low cost housing-which is to provide homes
only for those in the low income groups Many families
in the housing projects now have incomes of $1,000
yearly or Surely these families do not need or
deserve, federal and city rent subsidy.
BY failing to observe its own regulations the hous-
ing commission is not playing fair with the private
renter. 1t is not playing fair with the 1000 families
waiting TO rent apartments in the projects families
whose incomes too low to permit them to. live in
other habtations 1t Is not playing fair with Detroit
landlords, who pay large share of Detroits taxes.
These people told by this same housing COM
mission that the federal projects would not compete with
private real estate projects because the federal projects
would house only those in the very low income groups

not a factor in the private market

TO THE EDITOR:

TO THE EDITOR:
DOLITICAL economists are ac-
curate in their analyses of
causes and effects relating TO
initiation. But it is possible TO
make the matter clear by an
other approach.
Before widespread unionism,
the greater portion Of the pro-
duce Of labor went TO the owners
of plants. the large stockholders
and the management: their ex-
penditures went TO a compara-
lively limited field, for plant
expansions, stocks and bonds,
and for the ultimate in Injuries.
Such expenditures had little
inflationary tendency; in fact.
it was comparatively easy 10
control markets and general
prices.
on the other hand. now that
unioniSm has obtained for pro-
ducing workers a greater share
in the results OF their labors, the
field Of expenditure has enor-
mously increased and, hence,
that old DOGGY supply and de-
mand' is being overworked.
While the fact remains that in
the concentration of wealth,
market and price control is
y easy; and, in the distribution Of
wealth, control is difficult; yet,
greed in both high and low
places is the chief obstacle in the
way Of effective solution.
Find remedy for that human
failing and all will be well.

IL Merchants bureau and Giles Kavanagh, collector of

to think merchants are attempting to collect illegal

It should not do so. The differences have arisen
because neither the association Mr. Kavanagh have
yet been officially informed Washington how the
tax is TO be collected the articles dsTute-Both
have asked for instructions, but meanwhile both
only interpret the law in their way.
The association interpres it one way-Mr kavanagh
another.

gency measure this bound to happen 1t probably
will several times in the next few weeks until all
the kinks that inevitably appear in new tax law,

The Retail Merchants Association is doing every
thing possible iron out the kinks and make collection
of the tax as easy possible. But it's big job. 1t
may take time. We'd suggest that shoppers be
patient and remember that merchants collecting the
tax, only performing duty imposed by Congress-
Shoppers will remember also that the tax is part
of their contribution TO national defense.
