Johns Asks Housing Investigation

9tion took the appraisal of the F.
H. A. and added $1,000 so that the
total guarantee by Federal agen-
cies to the contractor was $500.
In effect then the Federal gov
ernment through its agencies has
guaranteed contractor a profit of
$4,000 per unit for an expected to-
tai of 1,400 units. Or in more
graphic language, the contractor
has guaranteed profit of $4,000
900 on sub-standard buildings
which will be extracted either from
U. S. Veterans or the U. S. Gov
eminent or both.
Montgomery County will be sad
died with sub-standard houses
which will, because of the great
dearth of housing, attract veter-
ans for only 50 long a period as
adequate housing becomes avail
able. During this period costs of
providing county facilities such as
education, policing and mainte-
nance of streets must be given the
occupants on the same basis as
though a substantial long-term
housing facility has been erected.
On the basis of the facts pre-
sented and because of my earnest
desire to see the veteran get real
value for his money and knowing
that you are deeply interested in
these same matters, ] am, in this
open letter to you, requesting a
complete Congressional investiga-
tion of the Viers Mill Village de-
velopment in the sincere hope that
steps may be taken, not only in
Montgomery County, but in the
State of Maryland and throughout
the nation, to develop a sound, eco
nomic housing program which will
really give our veterans homes of
real value and homes which will
be an asset to the community
where they are located.
Sincerely yours,
BROOKE JOHNS,
President Board of County Com
missioners.

Honorable Glenn Beall,
United States Representative
for Maryland, fFf
House Office Building,
Washington, D. C.
Dear Glenn:
The attention of citizens of
Montgomery County has been
called to the small homes construc-
ton project located on Viers Mill
Road between Silver Spring and
Rockville, known as Viers Mill
Village. The size of the project and
its apparent cheap construction
has caused much criticism and
brought forth great many ques-
tons concerning the value of such
projects to the veterans or to the
area in which they are located.
Because of this criticism and be-
cause of my own deep personal in
terest in veterans and Montgom-
cry County, have personally
checked with Montgomery Coun-
TVS County Supervisor McNayr,
the various County, State and Fed
eral agencies involved in the APP
prevail OF, the project. AS result
of the investigation the following
information was obtained:
u ~ The original request for a
building permit from the Maryland
National Capital Park and Plan
ming Commission by the Harris
Construction Company stated that
the cost of each house would be
$4,000.
~ A second request for a
building permit filed shortly there
after by the same agency stated
that each house would cost $4,000.
(3) F. H. A. appraisers ap-
praised the houses at $7,7OO each,
although independent appraisers
from Montgomery have said that
the total of house and lot could not
possibly have a value in excess of
$1,000.

Redland Hunt
Races To Be
Held SATURDAY.

Entries for the Redland Hunt
point-to-point races, scheduled to
open the racing season next Satur-
Gay, may set record, despite the
rugged winter that kept hunting at
a low ebb.
Recent improved weather has
spurred interest in the event held
annually in the vicinity Of Olney
or Laytonsville, the exact location
being additionally secret until a
few days before race time. The
start will be near Martins Dairy.
Mrs. Crompton Smith is sending
over several horses from Middle
burg, Va, as is Mrs. Elizabeth
Smith of that area. Her Woodwind
was one of the pair winners last
year. Some of the Maryland en-
tries already in are horses of
Leonard Timons, Marian Curran,
7. T. Mott and w. T. Gary.
The program calls for four
events: Terpenning Cup pair race
Gap-Hunters race; Heavyweight
race and the Redland Bowl. The
last named is the feature, regarded
as a proving ground for Maryland
Hunt Cup and Virginia Gold Cup
contenders.
With the exception of the gap
event, the races are at about five
miles, over between Is and 80
jumps, including brooks. T. T.
Mott, Sandy Spring, is handling
entries.

When television enters . home,
reading is curtailed.
The American public does not ap-
preciate cruelty, even to an enemy.
Radio producers can't run a musi-

if they expect any one to listen.
These are some of the facts radio
research have discovered through
various audience reaction tech
niques, Howard s. Meighan, admin
istrative vice president of the Co

the Washington Advertising Club
yesterday.
Expanding his subject, What
Radio Knows About YOU" Mr..
Meighan said polls. audiometers
and other devices, used to determine
what the listening public likes, have
given radio networks well defined
idea of what type of program to
produce at any given time of day
and for any type of listener.
For instance" Mr.. Meighan said,
I'VE found that in wartime shows,
we could have Jap or Nazi shot
to death. Good reaction. But If
the villain was throttled or killed
cruelty, the public reaction was un-
favorable"
Public opinion media have shown
that reading is cut down in nome
when family buys television set.
But we don't know to what ex-
tent magazine sales will be affected"

Cotton Textile Trade Dull
Except for Bagging Sales
By the Associated Press

NEW YORK, Oct. 16.-Coarse
sheetings and Osnaburgs were in
demand for the bag trade in the
cotton textile market this week.
Otherwise the market was quiet
Jewish holidays again held down
buyer attendance and some selling
houses were closed part of the time
The interest in bagging frightened
supplies for that type of goods and
in some instances orders were
booked through December.
Part of the demand for Osnaburgs
and coarse sheetings was said te
reflect the fact that prices of those
gods have slipped below the level Of
burlap, the competing material.
In wool goods orders were de-
veloping slowly at the mill level
Converters were buying spring lines
Of woolens and worsteds sparingly
until they see more clearly how
retail clothing demand shapes up

Inc, that it has reduced prices or
it's fall and winter clothing 20 pei
