Residents Of Bellevue
Grill NCHA Officials

More than 100 members of the
Bellevue Citizens Association, over
flowing their Recreation Hall, last
night engaged officials of the Ma
tional Capital Housing Authority in
an animated discussion over prob
lens of the Bellevue Housing Prof.
ect, administered by NCHA.
G. Steuart Bingham, manager of
the project, was the first official to
answer questions from the floor
and was subjected to barrage of
complaints so heavy that several
times George Burroughs, association
president. thumped sharply with his
gavel to bring the meeting to order.
The most frequent complaint from
the floor was that the 601 housing
units in the project are badly in
need of paint Mr.. Bingham blamed
the situation on inadequate budget
ary appropriations by the Federal
Public Housing Authority.
Many citizens complained about
the delay in making essential re-
pairs. Mr. Bingham said this trouble
was due to inferior labor and the
failure of his subordinates to call
such matters to his immediate
attention.
Bernard Loshbough, NCHA deputy
in charge of operations, defended
his agency against accusations of
not giving families more housing as
they increased in size. He explained
two out of every three vacancies
are allocated to the Navy by con-
gressional act.
