FPHAOffers
HousingUnits
Continued from Page u

Mr.. Young said today that he has
already filed and had accepted an
application for 500 such units with
Sumner K. Wiley, director OF the
Boston regional FPHA office. This Is
the first application from Connecti-
cut.
City to Collect Rents
The Federal authorities, as stated,
will erect the housing and the city
then will collect rents. All profits, If
any, may be retained by the city
but any deficit must be offset
by the city.
The units will be specifically set
up for veterans seeking quarters
for their families. Should an insult
ficient number Of veterans seek these
units they will be made available to
civilians.
1t will perhaps be at least 90 days
before such housing units are made
available in this area, Mr.. Young
stated.
However. the Broad Acres Federal
project at Milldale, but Q miles from
Waterbury has been made available
TO war veterans and their families.
This project was uncovered by The
Waterbury Democrat in a recent
survey and accepted by the Author
ity as a suitable dwelling for the
local veterans.

While some difficulty rests in the
fact chat transportation TO and from
the site Is afforded only by bus, ef-
forts are being made by Mr.. Young
and the Authority to expedite this
angle. Federal authorities told the
local chairman that they were pow
erleSS to set up transportation to

support every effort TO arrange for
car-poos and the like. Mr.. Young
is also looking into the feasibility OF
obtaining surplus war property Of
transportation nature.
A large dormitory consisting OF
single room units is also located at
this site and possibility OF its being
reconverted into larger family units
Is being considered by the federal
authorities al Mr.. Young's request.

mentioned are still available at this
site. Information may be obtained

Where Our Bread Is Buttered
Seattle Post-Intelligencer)


 Seattle became world city when the cry of "Gold!" echoed down from the vast wilderness of Alaska
 The wealth that poured from Stewards Folly flowed in an endless torrent over the wharves of Elliott Bay and Seattle grew no other city had grown in like period before
 In this year of 1946 Seattes well being and future growth still deeply rooted in the great northern Territory whose boundless natural have hard ly been scratched.
 But Alaska is growing up, too
 And she is tired of being kicked around by an indifferent city to whose greatness and prosperity she has contributed so abundantly
 This growing restiveness on the part of Alaska residents toward the Seattle apron strings was re- flected in an interview with Col. Henry w. Clark General Manager of the Alaska Development Board, published last week in the Post-Intelligencer.
 Advocating development of the Haines cutoff to the Alaska Military Highway as an al-year road, Colonel Clark said: mercy of shipping Through the Haines Cutoff we can the products of the whole interior of Alaska and by barge could transport them to the western terminus the Canadian National Railways northern most line at Prince Rupert"
 And, having reached Prince Rupert, British Co., lumbia. where will the products of Alaska go from there?
 Not through Seattle dear reader.
 They will cross Canada to the Middle West and the Eastern Seaboard and Seattle will become just another place on the map so far Alaska is concerned
 What is Seattle doing about keeping her vital com merce with Alaska?
 What constructive moves has the Seattle Cham Der of Commerce made toward matter closely related to ctys future?
 What proof do business and labor leaders propose give to Aaskans that their best interests lie Seattle their trading connection with the rest of the world?
 So far as is dscernble to the naked eye the is:
 Nothing.
 On the contrary, continual disputes some of them so petty that they would be aughabe if their effects not tragic, periodically tie up our shipping to and from Alaska to the vast inconvenience and growing annoyance of our northern neighbors.
 The Alaska Highway project, so earnestly advo- cated by the Post-ntelligencer and few discerning citizens who deeply concerned with the citys future has virtually fallen through because of the stolid indifference of politicians and most of our so-called civic leaders.
 Where the pioneer founders of Seattle once started to build railroad with their bare hands to give their city needed outlet for it's growing commerce, we 1e46 hardly have the energy to lift our voices to preserve commerce which their vision and sacrifices made possible.
 Let's not forget that bread is still very much buttered on the Alaska side

CAPITAL CH1.FF

The National Association of Manufacturers has been spending thousands of dollars to put the OPA out of business. But a Sunday baseball game almost did the trick. Chester Bowles, catcher, was hit by a wild ball pitched by Paul Porter, who, in turn, sprained his ankle. Housing Czar Wilson Wyatt, on the same team, sprained his back. Other players, all OPA-ites, are still stiff and sore. If At torney General Tom Clark doesn't pull James M. McInery out of the hair of Senators, he will undo all the excellent goodwill Clark has built up . Ex-Governor George Earle of Pennsylvania, recently dis charged from the Navy and newly married in Turkey to a Belgian l9-gear-cld, is planning a nation wide speaking tour to urge that we get busy right away for war with Russia. Harold Ickes pays his respects to the columnistS in this months Pageant. His remarks are pun2ent. Though more than 100000 men have been discharg- ed from the Army, Surgeon Gen eral Norman T.

 T e1n always identify Indiana from tl-e air because of it's great scen beauty. expanded Ryan. Its always a thrill to fly over it.
 "Oh yes, it's a beautiful state, no doubt" agreed Truman. But l al ways identify it from the air by the Huckleberry Finn system"

 Scientists say he has shown more statesmanship than any other member of the Committee. Least statesmanship, they also say, is shown by Senator Bourke B. Hick- enlooper of Cedar Rapids, Iowa, another Republican.
 At one time the Atomic Bill con- tained clauses very close to thought control, whereby the exchange of any kind of atomic knowledge, even military, could be criminal offense. This restriction could have affected use of atomic energy for civilian purposes such as running automobiles or power projects.
 The Atomic Bill also provided for the most far-reaching censorship ever seen in the United States, so that the acquisition" of atomic knowledge, even if not published, could be a criminal offense. These provisions have now been modified. The rewritten bill is by no means perfect, but atomic energy is new field, and the joc of governing it is difficult.

LIVING WAGE

The existing 40-cent minimum wage of the Fair Labor Standards Act is altogether out of date The nronosa now before the Senate to lift the floor to e5 cents an hour would be a contribution in meeting the minimum standard of living necessary for health efficiency and ell-beng of workers At 65 cents an hour man can earn S1350 for a full years work As inc Senate Committee on Education and Labor ac- knoyledges this still does not provide minimum American standard of living for the average family of four According to authoritative budget studies even the family earning S1 hour, s20O0 year is today deprived of such recognized essentials adequate medical and dental care and hovers at the door of the loan shark when emergencies arise
 It seems to us preposterous to argue as did some members of the committee in minority report, that the bulk of the persons in the lower brackets are unmarried and therefore not in need of an annual income of $1350 The premise is doubtful the conclusion antisocial It scarcely be considered sound national policy to discourage the raising of families
 Cheap labor is never asset. And those who would like to keep wages depressed on the aSsump- tion that they can thus attract industry offering an altogether illusory nducement. For cheap labor is notorously nonproductive Workers whose earnings do not afford them adequate nutrition the elementary satisfactons of American life drag upon the economy in general As President Truman observed "The foundations of healthy national economy can not be secure long as any large section of our working people receive substandard wages. The exist ence of substandard wage levels sharply curtas the national purchasing power and narrows the market
