the city of Tucson met with
Wright L. Felt, regional director
of P.W.A. in Tucson Wednesday
afternoon TO discuss various
proposals in this area for taking
care of problems created by the
national defense program.
Under the Communities Facilities
Bill Congress recently appropriated
$185, 1000 900 for the purpose assisting
communities in financing various
projects which have been made ne
cessary by the expansion of the
army facilities and personnel.
In those areas where such expan-
sion has created problems in hous-
ing, health and sanitation, welfare,
recreation and kindred community
activities the Federal Government
recognizes it's responsibility and is
attempting to assume a fair portion
of the expense in connection with
the building and creation of the faci-
lities necessary to adequately take
care of each situation.
MAKE SURVEY HERE
The Santa Cruz County National
Defense Council, the Board of Su-
pervisors, the City of Nogales and
the Santa Cruz County Chamber Of
Commerce have been actively en-
gagged for about two months in
making surveys and planning such
steps as could and should be taken
locally in order to properly cope
with the situation.
It was finally agreed that the
two most urgent problems were
those of health and recreation and
that therefore the most pressing
needs here were for a recreational
center for soldiers who come to No
gales on pay days and over the
week ends and combined welfare
and public health center.
Mr.. Felt explained the purposes
of the new legislation and said that
