INDIANHEAD, Md. July go
Ghost towns and surplus housing re-
sulting from boom times will be a
thing of the past if the experiment
tried by Public Buildings Admins
tration at Indianhead, Nd, yester-
day proves a success.
The guinea pig" in the test was
a re-fabricated house erected near
the United States naval powder fac
tory for use by defense workers
when the enlarged powder plant gets
into full production early this fall.
The experiment consisted in taking
the house down, loading it on trucks.
driving it over rough roads for 40 or
so miles and recording how much
damage has been done when it is
put back together again.
Offcials of the P. B. A. timed the
"demounting," as taking the house
apart is termed, at three hours. Put
ting it back together required less
time because the crew has had more
experience at the job and pounding
a nail is easier than pulling it out.
Looks to Normal Times.
Taking a long range view, the
P. B. A. is looking forward to the end
of the national emergency. when the
powder plant, like hundreds OF other
national defense industries, will re-
vert to it's old production schedule
Hundreds of men brought in for the
emergency no longer will be needed
and will go to some other part of the
country or return home. What will
