In letter to Commissioner John
Russell Young. James L. Branca.
chairman of the Communist Party
of Washington. today urged the
calling Of a conference Of citizens
organizations to draw up an inme-
diate program for the correction OF
slum housing conditions here.
Representatives of citizen and
civic associations and of consumer.
trade union, fraternal and youth
groups would be among those in
vlted to the conference, Mr.. Branca
proposed.
Terming inadequate housing here
an obstacle to the war effort" Mr..
Branca charged that groups which
are protesting the building of low
cost homes by the National Capital
Housing Authority measure their
patriotism in dollars. They are more
interested in the enormous rents
they are extracting from their
crowded properties than in the pres
ervation Of private enterprise or the
value OF the small home owners
property. he maintained.
MIR. Branca praised the contribu-
tlon the Housing Authority has
made to the elimination of slum
housing conditions here. There is
plenty Of room for private building
In this community" he said. but low
cost housing for slum reclamation
can be built only through Govern
ment planning.

Low Bid Of $1S1,375
For New Reservoir
1O-MiIIion-GuIIon Water
Oval Expected to Supply
Anocostiu for rs Years

The lowest bid so far received for
the new 10000, ,00O-gallon water res
ervoir to serve the Anacostia area
is one for $lSl,3 ,375 from the Balti-
more Contractors. it was announced
at the District Building yesterday.
If no lower bids are received, engi-
neer officials expect the award to
be made in the near future.
District engineer officials said that
work is to start shortly on the new
reservoir, to be completed within
three months from the start of con-
struction work. The three-month
requirement, officials explained. is TO
insure that adequate supply will be
available for the eastern part of the
city before the hot weather of next
year.
Designed to augment the present
Fort Stanton Parks 5000, ,000- gallon
installation, it will be adjacent to 1t
at the head of w street Sc. So
far as officials can estimate popula-
ton increases, it is expected that
the added supply will be sufficient
to serve Anacostia and nearby Sec
tions for at least Is years.
Engineers say that the new reser-
voir will have several unique fea-
lures. 1t will be oval shape like a
stadium. with sloping ends and sides
to eliminate high vertical walls, and
no steel or iron reinforcements will
be installed. 1t will not be rooted
as the present reservoir, until con-
struction metal is available.
The old rectangular tank, built In
1882, will be emptied and renovated
on the completion of the new one
and the Water Division hopes to
install chlorination unit for the
Anacostla section before warm
weather.
Bids received to date range from
the sl8l 900 of the Maryland firm
to $500 900 by a New York corpora
ton.

10000 WAC Goal
allied by 10000

The WAC recruiting campaign
that ended December 7 failed by
10000 to reach the goal of 10000
enrolled women, Secretary OF War
Stimson announced today.
The goal was set, Secretary Stim-
son explained, because that was the
number Of Army casualties at that
time. The casualties were broken
down by States and the WAC cam
paign was based on State allot-
ments.
Secretary Stimson added. however,
that recruits are coming in at the
highest rate since last April. The
campaign resulted in more women
enlisting than were lost from the
transition that took place from the
organizational change, he said.
Mr. Stimson voiced hope that
women without obligations would
feel the responsibility to fill the
ranks.
Mr.. Stimson reiterated an oft
expressed opinion of his own that
the time may come when women
will be included in the Selective
Service Act.
