congressional tempers rising, the

So far, the big noise is over q
section OF the bill which says that
whenever full employment can

ever expenditure and investment"

Taft and Radcliffe offered an
amendment TO change this. They
don't want II TO sound as though
the government is guaranteeing

Five Wait

London, Sept. 27-AP-Foreign
ministers of the United States. Brit
tain and Soviet RdssIa planned a
series Of informal talks today amid
unconfirmed reports that Foreign
Commissar Nyacheslav NJ. Molotov
was waiting word from Moscow
which might clear the way toward
a solution OF the Balkan peace
issue.
The fun council OF Big Five for
eign ministers skipped the regular
morning conference. and in the az
ternoon was to take up again
French proposals for international.
ization of the Ruhr and Rhineland.
In the interim the foreign secre-
taries OF the Big Three powers
were reported reliably to be dis.
cussing renewed Soviet demands 20
exclude France and China from
participating in the discussion OF
Balkan treaties.
There were indications that I'M
less L. s. Secretary OF State James
F. Byrnes. British Foreign Secre-
tary Ernest Bevin and Molotov
were convinced an absolute dead
lock had been reached. they would
keep the council in session until
this obstacle to the Romanian, Bull
garian and Hungarian treaties we're
removed.
Some observers expected the con-
ferees might take some action on
the question Of the Austrian gov
eminent. which thus far operates
only In the Soviet occupation zone.
II seemed likely the United States
now would be willing TO permit the
provisional government to extend
it's authority into the American

Development Planning
Starts For Housing Area


Struggling with the problem Of
what to do with the virtually de-
serted Willow Run housing area,
a group OF Washtenaw men are
striving for the best answer.
Forming themselves into a com
mittee last December. they start
ed several weeks ago TO gather
ideas and to determine so far as
possible what course would be
most advisable.
Announcement today by county
supervisor. ID. NJ. Silkworth, chair
man. that the committee, known as
the Willow Run Planning Commit
tee OF Washtenaw County, has en-
gagged architects Saarinen and
Swanson, Detroit community plan
ners. indicates an initial step in
arriving at a practical solution.
The general statement regarding
disposition of the housing area
has been that II would he cleared
within six months after termina-
ton OF war. That was the word Of
Washington officials when the hun
dreds OF houses were being con-
structed. Now the picture has
changed. There stand units to &C
commodate thousands of people,
land there are paved streets and
water aud sewer and electricity,
stores. recreation centers, fire de-
partment. Approximately 5000
units have never been occupied.
They are practically new and alto
gether the buildings and city con-
veniences make up an inviting pic
ture to men interested in realestate
development.
But real estate Development Is
not what Ypsilanti and residents
of the Willow Run community want.
What they want is something clean,
healthful. a beauty spot perhaps
but certainly not a health hazard
nor an undesirable tenament area.
To plan a park or recreation
center or any one Of several desir-
able uses for the area will not be
difficult, but to formulate de
sirable plan that will be accept
able to the government is a com
bination problem requiring study.
The health danger is emphasized
by DR.. Otto Engelke, Washtenaw
County health commissioner. The
situation is becoming dangerous,
he said. and definite provision
sho-ld be made for care and super
vision of the area before another

Committee Secretary Malcomb
Rogers. superintendent OF Willow
Run Schools. has expressed con
Germ regarding educational facil-
tiles, and financial aid. If the
houses are TO be opened TO veterans
and former residents are TO be al
lowed TO continue occupying some
while others remain empty, il is be-
lieved that revenue from ordinary
sources will be inadequate to pro-
vide proper schooling for children
OF the community.
From the standpoint Of labor the
housing Is undesirable and should
not be allowed to continue as an
Objectionable area. Brendon Sex

contention has had expressed sup
