Vets PLGn OLd-fashiOned House Raisings for Home

Boston, Sept. %. (UP)-A Dor chester postal worker completed plans for e series of old-fashioned house raiSings today and called for 40 or 50 World War II veterans who want homes bad enough to work for it with their hands"
 A veteran of World War I, Frank A. O'Brien arranged with banks and building trade unions for a cooperative enterprise in which the spare hours of veterans would be used for the building of their own homes and homes for their comrades.
 T figure that doing 1t this way, lik an old-fashioned house raising bee, we could get a $10,000 to $12,- 900 house for $4,0o0," O'Brien said. He asked for the help of an archi- tect, lawyer, carpenters, plum bers, electricians and other work men, who all were ex-veterans.
 These men would have to give their spare time evenings, Satur- days and Sundays for year, OBrien said, and If anybody uOcSIl WdllL LlO1AAC buA CAOASAA to give that time, then they needn't apply"
 OBrien's plan called for each member of the group selected to contribute $1 ,000 and to finance his own house and pay his own mort gage. Each would work on his own home and on the homes of his neighbors in the capacity in which he was best fitted and O'Brien esti- mated that all homes could be fin- ished in a year.
 A 30-acre tract of land would be purchased and each home would have a half acre. The architect would draw the plans for all the houses the lawyer would take care of the legal aspects of each house: An accountant would be included and for his figuring would receive a home.

Socialists Platform
 Presented

Waterbury's Socialist Party has filed a statement of its party princi- pies with the Office of Town Clerk Mrs. Mary c. Kilmiartin. A fourteen point platform it lists the following:
 CD An administration of state af- fairs marked by honesty, sound economies and scientific, non-par- tisan methods of operation.
 (2) Pioneers in Connecticut for the cause of low-coSt housing, the Socialist Party stands for develop ment of public housing and slum clearance, wherever needed, on terms consistent with the interests Of the citizens as whole We be- Ieve that the continuing neglest of the housing emergency in Con- necticut is a public disgrace and outrage. We pledge employment of every means and resource for immediately providing homes for Connecticut's homeless.
 (3) Legal steps to relieve the economic disasters of employment, and to improve working conditions for labor and insure more equit- able safeguards for the farmers welfare.
 (4) Amendment of old age assist ance laws on a pension basis, nak- ing adequate payments mandatory.
 (5) Laws encouraging public own- ership of public utilities and rate reductions.
 (6) Prompt launching of inn proved facilities for state institu- tions caring for the sick and in- sane, and an equitable system of health insurance.
 CD Abolition or reform of our ob- solete and expensive methods of county government. Inclusion of our county jails in the states pe- nal system under state operation.
 (8) Appointment by the governor of non-partisan, non-salaried commission to study the states municipal charters and to recom- mend a substantially uniform sys- tenn of city charters, with reasonable notifications to meet local condi- tions, and tnsuring 8 maximum of home rule to each community.
 (9) Change of the states appar- ent merit system into a real, rigid civil service. A true civil service and merit system for every city and town.
 1O Consistent with its historic position, the Socialist party be- lieves in installation of direct pri- maries at the earliest opportunity CID Members of the General As-

plumbers and others who volunteer would work on all houses and an effort would be made so that no one house would be finished much before another. This would prevent member of the cooperative from losing interest in helping neigh bor after his house was completed.
 I'm no good Samaritan" O'Brien said. Neither am I trying to get money out of somebody. I want a home and I want 1t pretty bad. I've been working on this idea for six months. Now I figure If we get men who want a home as bad as I do, we can get together.
 With 25 men working at the same time on place, I'm sure we could finish the whole project in year. Each of us ought to be will ing to give 20 hours a week toward home of our own.'
