vention in San Francisco beginnin,
Sept. 30.
UNFORTUNATELY the private real
estate interests have been vigorous
ly opposing enactment of the bill
ana 1t was largely because of their
efforts and those Ct certain Re-
publican members in the house
that enactment of the bill was
prevented at the last session of
Congress.
I'VE do not say the bill is per
feet. There is no magic in it. The
housing shortage is so terrific
that there is literally no power
and no legislation that can solve it
overnight. But we do point out
that the bill embodies the only
housing program before the coun-
try. Its provisions were written
after two years of study by two
senate committees. No alternative
is proposed. Those who oppose it
assume the responsibility for say
ing that our veterans shall not be
housed. We do not think the coun-
Try feels that way about it.

EMORY APPOINTED.
TO HOUSING POST
Continued From Page One)

DR.. Bryn j. Hovde, head of the
New School for Social Research,
New York: Catherine Bauer, of
Harvard, a pioneer crusader for
better housing; Charles Abrams of
New York, economist and author
OF housing books, ana other.
Confirming his acceptance of the
appointment, Emory said the work
would not interfere with his duties
with the local housing authority.
In a statement he said:
IT have accepted the appoint
ment to which Mr.. Johnson refers
1T is an assignment which I did
not by any means seek, and I have
many misgivings as to whether the
right person has been selected.
But I have resolved to try to do a
good job, for T believe the good of
the nation requires that the job be
done.
"We are short by a good many
million dwelling units of having
enough housing in the United
States. Very little progress is be-
ing made toward meeting the short
age. Not much construction is go
ing on, and the few houses that are
being built IRE for sale or rent at
prices far above the reach of most
of our veterans and others. The
veterans do not like this, and they
cannot be blamed for not liking it.
"Only half of the Wyatt housing
legislative program has been en-
acted by Congress. The Patman
bill, passed last spring, is chiefly
designed to encourage production
of building materials. The Wagner
Ellender-Taft bill Contains the
machinery for geeting the houses
built. This bill is essential, in my
judgment, if we are to relieve the
shortage and provide the housing
desperately needed by our veterans
and Others. Mr.. Wyatt wants the
bill passed, and so does President
Truman, and both have publicly
said so on many occasions.
Bills Aim
cit is estimated that the bill
would bring about production Of
about a million and a quarter
dwelling units a year. About sc
per cent of these would be built by
private capital, and the rest would
be public housing built by Local
housing authorities. Every dwell.
ing unit built under the measure
would be reserved exclusively fol
veterans of World War II. Reco.
gnizing this, veterans organiza.
tons are giving increasing support
to the bill. The Veterans Of
Foreign Wars at their national con.
vention this month in Boston I'M
animously endorsed the bill, and
the matter will be presented at the
