Stun Clearance on
West Side Long
Way Off

Governor Frank J. Lausche may
have signed the slum clearance
bill which passed the Ohio senate
day before yesterday by a vote of
80 to 0. Unaccompanied by a pub
lie housing bill, the bill, if it be-
comes law, will not go too far in
eliminating the large cities of
Ohio of the slum areas. 1t con-
tains too many ifs, ands and butts
alone.
Under the bill, cities would take
measures to eliminate slums in all
areas Of over four acres. The
property in these areas would be
condemned. This means all per-
sons residing in these areas must
move. The land would be pur-
chased from tax funds or by float
ing a bond issue. The bond issue
would have to be approved by SO
per cent of the electorate. Those
residing in the condemned areas
would be moved to livable places
at the expense of the municipality.
Not only private dwellings, but
public buildings below the mini
mum standard would be included
in the slum clearance bill. Land
purchased by municipalities would
be purchased at less than cost.
Even before the bill was pass
ed, city official, Herb Starick,
city planning director, declared
the slum clearance bill would not
have any immediate effect on the
slums here in Dayton. The reason

pear in Municipal court June Is.
Louis J. Balsasare, 1890 Freu-
denberger avenue, received a fine
Of $1,000 and cost and one year
in the work house by Judge Paul
Shere for carrying a blackjack.
All but rs ans cost was sus-
pended on good behavior by the
court.
Patrolman Hugh Kingery, 1926
Xenia avenue, brought suit for the
amount Of $4,000 against Edwin L.
Hughes for striking him with a
telephone receiver February FL.
at the Dayton bar, 236 South Lud-
low street.
The officer was hospitalized fol-
a period of two and a half months
according to Attorney Herbert M
Eikenbary, who said Hughes re,
ceived a 6O-day work house sent
ence for the assault. Hughes
claims the assault resulted in a
brain conclusion and permanent
disability. T..
Sheriff Ben Smith issued warn

he gave was based on the very
thing which constitutes the weak
ness in the bill.
This is, as was stated above,
the refusal of the legislature to
pass a public housing bill. Private
interests will determine the site
selection, development of area
planned and the actual construc-
ton. In short, any slum clearance
program in Dayton will go for
ward at the whim of private real
estate interests, and, as most folks
know, they want the perpetuation
Of the ghetto, restricted conven-
ants and all the other h%inderances
in the way of adequate housing for
Negroes and working people gen
orally.
The people are to blame in 4
good measure of their failure to
pressure their representatives into
voting for a public housing bill.
The legislature is still in session,
however, and their is still a public
housing bill. So there is still time
to pressure your representative in
Columbus.
