More and more builders are
getting into the $9,000-$10,00
price field.
This Is the remaining strong
"mass market" for Washington
Metropolitan Area home build
ing, observers agree.
Right now many houses are
being completed in that price
range. And there are plenty Of
indications that other builders
want to take advantage Of pos
sibilities In this field.
One of the big reasons, Of
course, is that the Governments
emphasis for future financial
aids is on the lower-cost house.
Up to now, however, only about
eight home-building firms have
been concentrating on the So
000-s10,000 range in this area.
AS a result, they are fairly well
under way as the market for
higher-priced properties begins
to soften.
Mass Output Needed.
About the only way for build
ers to get prices down to the
lower level is to build smaller
houses on a mass production
basis.
That generally means that the
houses must be built in groups
of Is or more, and cannot have
more than two bedrooms.
IN each district area under
$4,000 development only one or
two basic home designs are used,
thus permitting swifter belt
line" production. In many cases,
houses vary only in exterior de-
tails.
Yet most developments meet
high FHA standards as to neigh
borhood development, with wide
streets, curbs, cutters, landscap-
ing and other ref1nements seldom
provided a generation ago.
Until recently, most builders
have preferred to build the type

If the dancing teachers OF the
land want testimonial to their art,
they could do lot worse than point
to Miss Merriel Abbot. She prob
ably has profited more than any
other woman from those ballet les
sons taken at an early age. Some
girls who study ballet become ballet
dancers and find life a precarious
thing in which they are repaid more
by their art than by cash, but not
Miss Abbott. She quickly saw that
the producers life was the life for
her and that's the life she has been
leading for Is years.
Now an amiable, witty and mature
type for an ex-dancer, Miss Abbott
is both a romantic and realist. In
the Mayflower Lounge the other
evening she had to have frozen
egg-nog, because she'd seen one at
lunch time and had been dreaming
about it all afternoon. Turned out,
she admitted, to be one OF those
ideas that seemed like good one at
the time AL right, but not as
exciting an affair as she had been
anticipating. It was the same, she
said, on her return from last sum-
mer's trip to Europe. All during the
four month jaunt she used to dream
up fabulous things she was going to
eat when she got back to the land
of food. When she returned, though,
not a single dish was as tasty as
her dreams had been.

Berlin Believes

trary, most Berliners believe the
Western Powers will remain in
Berlin, according to a poll taken
by the American Military Govern
ment. The opiGion sampling was
conducted by AMG's information
control division in the three wes-
tern sectors of Berlin-occupied by
the U. s., Britain and France
which contain two-thirds of the
city's 3 ia million population.
In October, 1947, "a per cent be-
lieved the Western Powers would
not withdraw. Later Russian
propaganda barrage attempted to
convince Berliners that the West
ern Powers were the "splitters" of
Germany and had forfeited their
rieht to remain here. To test the
effect of this propaganda. the
American agency again asked Ber-
liners this spring whether they be-

PRAGUE = (P) One wall
stands in the middle of a razed area
in Chomutov, go miles west of
Prague-a monument to supersti-
tion. The town council planned to
demolish a group of buildings,
many of them erected in the 10Th
and 18th centuries.
Most of the workmen were Slo-
vaks and gypsies, both loaded down
with centuries of superstition.
When they came to the mysterious
wall, a stone fell from the top and
broke a Workman's leg. Another
workman uncovered a stone on
which was carved the relief of a
woman's face. A moment later an
other stone, with a carving of a
dogs head on it, was found.
Then a rumOr swept through the
labor gang that a tube containing
an ancient letter had been found
which recorded that on that spot a
nun had been buried alive with her
ret dog. Anyone who disturbed the
spot of the grave would be punish
ed by death-so the rumor ran, and
work stopped.
In vain, fOremen pointed out that
back in the Middle Ages builders
put their signature stones into
walls and that these mysterious
carvings were just that. No one
could produce the rumored letter.
The town councillors were still
looking for wOrkmen to finish the
demolition.

Now 81. Paul Is supposed 10 be
a progressive town and the people
here are supposed to be progress
sive and well educated, but they
don't act like II. Where / came
from there Is q well organized
NAACP, q community civic club,
and the fraternitics have func-
tons for the benefit Of the COM
munity.
Now ever since I've been here
In this town. I've heard much talk
about the Omega formal" or the
Alpha Spring Party" or the AKA
Hop" Is that all the college
trained people in this town think
about3
II seems to me that the people
who spend q lot Of money and
time getting a higher education,
should be able to do more than
give q big elaborate dance once q
year. think that these people
could at least give some thought
10 the betterment Of the commun-
ity and the race. St. Paul isn't so
perfect that these young people
and older ones too can afford TO
sit around these two or three
dinky beer taverns and gossip
about the way some railroad
mans wife is playing around or
something just as important.
People In other towns are NOV
ing ahead just like the times are
moving. but a lot Of good brains
are going beer-stals here in this
mans town because there Is no
other kind Of action.
OF course, I like 81. Paul but
this Ia one bad situation. lay the
blame on these fraternities. soror-
tiles and civic organizations which
are supposed 10 give the leader
ship in the community. but are
falling down on the job.
hope that someone will read
this and show me where some
thing worthwhile is going on. As

booster than q knocker.
