Emergency Group Members.
Other members of the Emergency
Committee, in addition to Mr.. Mel
son. are: Hugh Potter. Houston,
chairman; Waverly Taylor, Wash
ington; j. c. Nichols, Kansas City,
Mo-; William Levitt, New York City:
George Miller, Detroit; John McC.
Mowbray, Baltimore, and Ellis
Stonesan, San Francisco.
The committee will continue the
fight of the home building industry
in its effort to obtain relief from
priority restrictions.
Another indication of how Wash
ington real estate men and builders
may expect to fare under o. P. M.
restrictions on home building is fur
nished by j. Garrett Bethel, one Of
the city's leading real estate brokers,
who says that only 13 per cent of
the houses sold by his ONCE this
year were priced under the $4,000
unit maximum set by defense off,
cials.
Mr.. Beitzell's ofIice furnishes
good picture of the real estate busi-
ness here. His business is one of
the largest about the Capital and
covers as wide a field as any other
ofilce. He sells homes in Maryland
and Virginia as we'll as the District.
His figures show the o. P. M. order
if maintained will cut his business
down lower than 13 per cent of this
years volume, for brokers' COM
mission naturally increases with the
price of the house he sells.
Unemployment Expected.
Mr.. Beitzell states that in the first
10 months OF this year he has sold
236 homes. of which only 80 were
priced under $4,000. These houses
represent gross sales value of
sl.858 ,986. The average house sold
for s7,804.
Naturally, if Mr.. Beitzell's busi-
ness is going to be so drastically cut,
many on his large sales staff will
lose their jobs. This is indicative
of how the defense building order
will raise unemployment in the con-
struction industry. Statesmen will
be out of jobs, along with the build
ers, the building workmen, the men
who make the materials.

Defense Housing Committee Of the
Home Builders Association. He
thinks the o. p. M. price ceiling for
home building should be relaxed.
THE Nations Capital" he says,
Cannot hope to meet the acute
housing shortage brought about by
the defense program unless private
industry is permitted to build in the
price range where the greatest de-
mand exists. Unlike the average
American city, Washington's great
est need is for housing for higher
income families. Many such FAM
lilies are being brought here in the
defense effort. 1t is up to the city
to house them in a manner COM
mensurate with their standard of
living. This obviously cannot be
done if ceiling of $4,000 is to apply
to house building and $50 a month
is to be the maximum rental for
apartments and flats during the
emergency"

 The State Department has ls- sued the following affidavit which 5uka made at Suez on arrival there with other survivors of the ship:
 Visibility was perfect We could even see the planes exhaust spark ing. The plane passed directly over the ship, about 250 feet, as well as can judge, above the main mast. About two seconds after the plane cleared the ship, I heard a muf- fled explosion below the water line. A second later, another ex- plosion.'
