FAILURE of the army to make reasonable offer for
i city-owned Barlum Hotel-whe army departments
increase the critical housing shortage here by taking over
sections of private hotels and the Herman Gardens nous
ing projects battling
1t is not the citys fault. 1t has offered to sell the
6O0room structure the army for 100000 merely the
of the delinquent taxes, or lease at any reason
able figure
But the city has received only army offer: 81
year for five floors.
When amazed city officials pointed out that the army
is perfectly willing TO reasonable rates Tor the rental
of private hoelsfrom SIS to $50 room per month IN
Miami and Chcago-the army had nothing to say But
intend to "let Detroit make money on it.
The CITY, of course is not trying to do anything OF
the kind But it cannot understand why the army is
willing to paw reasonable rental rates to private hotels
but balks at doing the same for city-owned hotel
And while the Barlum Hotel stands idle, the ordnance
department of the army has moved into Detrot rented
$50 in three leading hotels and asked for 800 units
in the Herman Gardens project
AS army officers and technclans move here
more private housing units will have to be taken over
More war workers will be forced to split up their families,
