Currier estimated there was
enough trim, fiber board. heating

Detroit to convert all the vacant
stores here into dwelling units.

no time for luxury"

The lumberman estimated stores
could be converted into dwelling
units for as little as $3.50.
Patrick V. Mcnamara, area rent
administrator, who attended the
meeting, said he thought vacant
stores should be converted into
dwellings. promising that his office
would treat rent petitions for such
units as literally as possible.
eff you will show us plan,
we'll tell you what rent you can
charge before you proceed with
the conversion" he said. 'Tf I
