Citizens Group Hears
IhIder on SIum Plans

Arguments for the slum reclama-
ton program proposed by the Ma
tional Capital Housing Authority
under which approximately $780,
100000 would be spent over a 90
year period to replace the Districts
slums with adequate low-rent hous-
Ing. were presented to the Burleith
Citizens Association last night by
John Ihlder, executive officer of the
Housing Authority.
Mr.. Ihlder reviewed the progress
IN slum reclamation already made
by the agency, pointing out that
failure Of Congress to appropriate
the necessary funds has prevented
greater accomplishments. Legisla-
ton recently introduced by Senator
'McCarran, Democrat, of Nevada
would provide 100000, 900 with which
the NCHA could resume its pro-
gram, he said.
There are about 10000 substand-
ard dwellings in the District, he
estimated.
Yeoman (Third Glass; Gladys
Stewart Of the SPARS also spoke at
the meeting, urging additional en-
GStments in the SPARS.
The association voted $125 for
recreational facilities in the COM
munity, and discussed the possibility
OF Western High School stadium
being used as a playground. Pur-
chase Of 500 War Bond by the
association in the name of the Fed
Grafton of Citizens Associations also
was voted
