gram for the money.
Following is Director Cos
ser'S statement:
During the campaign for the
payroll tax, we of CIO expressed
our opposition, not because the
city did not need additional
funds to expand its services to
the people, but to the form of the
tax. That has been decided now
and we have some very definite
ideas about how the funds should
be spent.
Streets Need Repairs
1--WE believe that the Union
Station Plaza should be built,
but we also believe that our
streets which are in bad condi-
ton should be given immediate
attention. Garbage collections
should be greatly improved and
rubbish removal created.
"Our city employees should be
given wage raises in line with
the increased cost of living and
in proportion to the wage in
creases which have been given
in industry. The best way to Sc
cure and maintain a highly eff
cient group of city employees, in
cluding police and fire depart

Vets Still
Searching
For Homes
Brass Hats Hit
By Complaints

WASHINGTON, June 10
nPA)-More than 500 of a
representative group of mar
ried enlisted men who were
discharged from service last
December still were without
suitable homes or apartments of
their own three to four months
later it was revealed this week
by the Natl. Housing Agency
and the Veterans Administra-
ton.
Both agencies viewed this as
emphasizing anew the acute
need for speeding construction
under the Veterans Emergency
Housing Program. One vital part
of that program to build 2,70O.-
900 homes is the Wagner-Ellen-
der-Taft National Housing Bill,
which is the subject of hearings
before the House Banking Com
mittee beginning this week.
Vets Are Bitter
"Only the brass hats can get
houses under the veterans pro-
gram it now stands" veterans
were quoted as complaining Bit
terly. Supporters of the Cen
eral Housing Bill-already okay-
ed by the Senate-were con-
centrating pressure for their bill
on the fact that it provides low
cost using, if necessary
through public financing, in con-
trast with the private construc-
ton program now in operation
MANY of those who were, able
to find their own living quar-
lters", the joint FHA-VA survey
found, "had to pay more than
they had planned. For example
