IFactory-BuiIt Houses
Seen by Wyatt as Big
Factor in GI Housing
By Robert J. Lewis

Housing Administrator Wilson w.
Wyatt said last night he is banking
heavily on mass production of new
type metal, plastic and concrete
factory-built houses to help meet
veterans housing needs by the end
Of next year.
The prefabricated home industry,
he said, would be decisive factor
in providing veterans with moder-
ate-priced homes and indicated that
aluminium. steel, plastic and con-
crete prefabricated houses were be-
ing viewed as an especially good
source ito achieve low-cost hous-
ing"
The present industry is expected
to build $4,000 to $4,000 units this
year from lumber and plywood. and
an additional 10000 to $4,000 are
expected to come from new pro-
ducers Of metal and concrete homes.
Metal and concrete home production
is expected to climb rapidly next
year.
The assembly method defin-
itely will be needed in the housing
field, Mr.. Wyatt said. He explained
that corporation executives PLAN
ming such production "are just as
enthusiastic about its possibilities
as We are"
Can't Build Enough.
Mr.. Wyatt added that he believed

Merged Middy-Codet Force
Begins Operations Tomorrow

Merger of the armed services
which failed of passage at the re-
cent session of Congress, is being
demonstrated in other fashion by
Naval Academy midshipmen and
Military Academy cadets in am
phibious operations in Chesapeake
Bay. which start tomorrow.
Vice Admiral Daniel E. Barley,
who is to command the combined
operations from his flagship, the
Cactoctin, said it would "be a mer-
ger in fact if not by legislation. -
The combined forces will include
$50 midshipmen and 315 cadets, all
second classmen. They will practice
landings under the eyes of Admiral
Barley, who commanded the 7th
Fleet Amphibious Force in the Pa
ciflc and spearheaded Gen. Mac
Arthur's advance through the
Southwest Pacific. The force COM
pleted 50 landings, putting ashore
1,076,000 men, and staging its final
landing at Balikpapan, Boreno, on
July /, 1945.
Admiral Barley said the first
demonstration will be an attack on
BloodWorth Island tomorrow. The
island, swampy and unihabited, will
be attacked by planes, rocket ships,
destroyers and gunboats. The rocket
ships will show their function Of
Evening star., 1946-08-11

blasting snipers out of foXholes and
trees along beaches, a purpose for
which they were born in the attack
at Lac in New Guinea.
1t will be only a simulated land
ing on Bloodworth Island, for the
midshipmen and cadets, while ac-
companying Marines to the beach,
will not land.
There will be an actual full-scale
landing through light surf at Little
Greek, Va, on August 10. The
cadets will go ashore in boats
manned by the midshipmen, and
tanks and other heavy equipment
will be put on the beach.
The boats will be preceded by an
underwater demolition team which
will demonstrate its work of blow
ing up distractions to clear the
way for the landing boats. The
team will be the same one which
carried out its duties at the Balikpa-
pan landing under Admiral Barney's
command a little more than a year
ago.
The final exercise, on August 81,
will be landing through the surf
at Virginia Beach. Because of the
inexperience Of the force, the land
ing of heavy equipment will not be
attempted.
Admiral Barley said the opera.

great that all the houses that ali
the conventional builders can erect
won't be enough" to meet the de-
mand.
I'VE believe" he added, 'that the
quickest and cheapest way OF sup
plying additional housing capacity
Is through industrially made homes.
We want the present pre-fabri-
eating plants to build all the vet
erans' houses they can, consistent
with our low-cost program. But
since most Of them use lumber and
plywood, their output will be re-
stricted to the amount OF both they
can get.
For the additional production
needed, and especially to achieve
low-cost housing, We are encourage
ing the mass production of factory
built houses to be made largely out
Of aluminium, steel, plastics and
concrete"
This Years Goal Cut.
This years goal of CSC, 900 prefab-
ricated houses recently was slashed
to 100000 because Of difficulties in
getting into production. Next year,
it is hoped that 65o,ooo prefabri-
Gated homes can be built.
AS for metal houses, Mr.. Wyatt
said they are very promising from
several angles" because they "lend
themselves to assembly line produc-
ton, the same as automobiles and
airplanes.
Mass production makes for low
cost, an equally important factor"
he said. Concrete houses are also
good possibilities for low-cost
homes he added.
The housing administrator said
industrially made houses Should be
as attractive in appearance as those
built by traditional methods"

1--WE hope to have co-ordinated land
ings at Culebra and Vieques Islands
of Puerto Rico. In prewar days we
had minor amphibious operations
there and what we learned stood us
in good stead later in the Pacific.
I'VE hope that this first COM
bined operation of any kind by mid
shipmen and cadets will lead to an
understanding and student Coop
Grafton which later will grow into
effective cooperation in actual serv-
ice."

to have present the superintendent

Shoe Prices Advance 3 to 9 pct. This Week

NEW YORK, July l2, -(P)- Prices of some shoes have advanc- ed an average of to g per cent this week, industry sources said.
 The increase, manufacturers said, represents an advance ap- proved by the Office of Price Ad- ministration which would have gone into effect July 8, had that agency continued. It includes footwear not covered in an OPA ceiling increase granted on low end shoes in May.
 Tanners prices have been ad- vanced 20 to 30 percent over the OPA ceilings this week, the in dustry sources said, due to ad- avncing raw materials costs, with cattle hide increases put at ap- proximately 25 per cent.

 "We are well pleased with the location, which has fine deep water adjacent to a good stand of timber for logging, which will be one of the main activities, at least for the present." Banta said.
 They brought complete log ging outfit with them. including tractors and bulldozers for clear ing land, and they currently are

Now that several cinema actors
and actresses have proved that it Is
all myth that intelligent people
cannot have both marriage and a
career, the angle remains untouched
in most Hollywood stories.
It is quite properly ignored in an
announcement from Columbia today
that Betsy Blair has been signed by
that studio for major role in My
Empty Heart" Betsy Blair. In pri-
vate life, is Mrs. Gene Kelly; a
pretty, red-haired person who was
an actress before she and her hus-
band went to Hollywood. A stage
actress, not a movie one.
Miss Blair will be making her first
picture, but theater audiences may
remember her from her last role in
the east, the major feminine one in
THE Beautiful People," by William
Saroyan.
Miss Blair's last stage assignment
was the relatively inconspicuous one
of understanding Julie Hayden in
THE Glass Menagerie." She took
it as sort of time filler while Gene
was in the Navy. Miss Hayden, who
looks fragile but is not, required
no assistance in the Me
nagerie' role.
