The POLITICAL ARENA

Politically Speaking-FrOm tbs
present outlook the Negro In
Oregon is more politically mind
ed than 1t has been ours to
observe. 1t appears that he is
studying the principles of the
two major parties as never be-
fore. Registration is upped =
doubled that of any previous re-
cord. Forces are being united
through organizations and an
awareness of his rights as a citi-
zen is keenly felt as stark reali-
cations of what he faces in the
future If he neglects so great a
duty as that of casting his bal
lot in the coming election.
A statewide appeal and an I'M
firing effort is being made to get
folks registered that they may
not have any excuse for not be-
ing able to vote on November Z.
Register by all means-and vote

and financing practices.

Cost Of Construction
Becomes Prime Issue
In Housing Dispute

With hearings recessed until next
Tuesday the controversy over the
National Capital Housing Author
ity's proposal to reclaim the Dis
trict's slums today appeared to re-
volve around the comparative costs
Of private and public building and
the reported willingness OF private
builders to construct the necessary
low-rent replacement housing.
Clarke Daniel, private builder, and
DR.. E. F. Harris, president of the
Federation of Civic Associations, will
testify when hearings before the
Burton Senate District Subcommit-
tee are resumed at 10 am. Tuesday.
Mr.. Daniels testimony is expected
to supplement that Of Joseph H.
Deckman Of the Federation of Cit
liens Associations, whose two-day
attack on the NCHA was completed
yesterday afternoon.
Taxpayers Defended.
Mr.. Deckman charged taxpayers
will be forced to bear a heavy bur-
den II the NCHA's proposals for
slum reclamation are carried
through. He contended that:
l. An eventual annual tax loss of
81, ,75O, 900 will result if the NCHA is
given 100000, 900 and 20 years to
clear the slums. The agency now
receives an annual tax exemption
Of $262,500 on its approximately
SIS, 100000 worth of permanent
housing.
2. On the basis of the standards
Of strict economy observed by pri-
vate builders the NCHA had an ex-

to prevent taxpayers from taking
too much depreciation too rapidly.
The federation representative
further assailed the NCHA for hav-
ing accepted only a few Of the low
est income families as tenants Of its
low-rent housing. A careful survey
would show many white NCHA
tenants are earning enough to be
graduated into private housing,
leaving the low-rent public dwell
ings for more needy families, he
said.
Mr.. Ihlder withheld reply to most
of the charges, planning to answer
Mr.. Deckman and other critics of
public housing within the next few
weeks, when he will take the stand
