Housing Project
For Negroes 10
BE Auctioned
FILA Promises to
Push Mayfair Gardens
If 1t Takes Control

After standing in the same state
OF partial completion for more than
three months in the face of a criti-
cal shortage of colored housing here
Mayfair Gardens, mammoth Negro
apartment development on Kenil-
worth avenue NE, will be auctioned
on March II at foreclosure sale.
Announcement of the foreclosure
proceedings, made by the Federal
Housing Administration, disclosed
that sponsors of the development
headed by Elder Solomon Lightfoot
Michaux, have been unable to OBJ
tain sufficient funds to complete
construction.
The FILA promised that if it OBJ
tains ownership as a result of the
foreclosure by holders of the ST.
478,O0O first mortgs ge, construction
Will be resumed with all possible
speed. Commissioner Abner H
Ferguson of the FHA estimated the
development can be completed
within six months after work is re-
sumed.
+ Luxury-Type Development.
Planned as luxury type develop
ment comparable to the Mclean
Gardens and Naylor Garden prop
critics built by the Defense Homes
Corp. Mayfair Gardens was started
in September, 1912. Work was
halted last September when Mayfair
Gardens, Inc, the sponsoring cor
poration, ran short of money. The
o94 apartment units that are con-
templated are in varying stages of
completion; for some, shells of the
buildings have been erected and
only finishing touches are needed
while for others, only the foundation
has been IL
during months the project has
stood untouched, colored citizen
groups have been protesting the
critical shortage of housing for COL
ored families. Government restric-
tlons on the use Of strategic build
Ing materials have prevented the
erection OF additional housing to re-
heve this shortage.
The foreclosure action has been
brought by the Irving Trust Co. of
New York, which holds a s2,478. 900
first deed of trust on the project and
which has paid out approximately
81, 100000 in construction advances
to the sponsors, the FHA said. Since
the FHA insured the mortgage, it
may receive possession Of the de-
velopment after the foreclosure
sale in exchange for FHA deben-
lures.
Government Tried to Help.
Because of the need for additional
good housing for colored persons
in the Washington area, the FILA
and National Housing Agency made
every effort to avert the foreclosure
:end enable the original sponsors to
complete. the project, Mr.. Ferguson
said.
When 1t became apparent that
the sponsoring firm could not COM
plete, construction without addi-
tional financing. the FHA agreed
to increase its mortgage insurance
commitment to the maximum limit
permitted by the National Housing
Act, provided the sponsors could
secure sufficient additional Junior
funds to assure completion" Mr.
Ferguson explained. When the
sponsors were unable to secure
further funds. the Irving Trust Co.,
as holder of the first trust, had no
alternative other than to institute
foreclosure proceedings"
Mayfair Gardens is garden

struction. 1t is located on the site
Of the old Benning race track.
