FOR 20 new

Building Now

The national housing agency has
given approval for construction of
20 privately-financed family dwell
ling units in Glasgow, according to
George w. Coplen of Seattle, re-
gional representative for the ad-
ministrator.
At the same time, local lumber
men voiced the opinion that, be-
cause of shortages of materials and
labor, there can be no immediate
construction to relieve congestion
here. They said, however, those in
terested in home construction
should begin now preparing appli-
cations for priorities. to be ready
when shortages are relieved.
Right now, there isn't enough
lumber in Glasgow to build a single
house." n commented. Another
said it may be spring before build
ing materials arrive in sufficient
quantities for new homes, although
the possibility vas expressed that
the stringent shortage may be over
come sooner than that.
Priorities under the H-2 housing
program permit the construction of
larger and better quality houses
than it has been possible to build
under the previous hid a hous-
ing standards, the announcement
from Mr.. Coplen stated.
Under this program, builders may
construct houses for sale at any
price up to 1900 or for shelter rent
up to S55 per month. Anyone may
occupy the houses when they are
completed. He said the program
necessarily is limited by availability
of materials.
Houses built under the priorities
may be financed with or without
mortgage insurance by the federal
housing administration.
Applications for priorities to
secure materials should be filed with

housing administration.
