Wide Difference Seen
In U. 5. Housing Aid
For Defense Areas

A wide difference in the LIBERAL
ity of financial aid available un-
der the Defense Housing Act is
likely to supply defense rental
housing on only a "spotty" basis
throughout the country, it ap-
peared today.
In the defense housing areas
adjacent to Washington-the Fort
Meade-Laurel (Md.) area and the
Patuxent (MdD area-the differ
ing economic character of the
areas means that traditional con-
cepts of valuation invoked by the
bill in an effort to prevent prof.
teering will intrude on the Gov
ernment's desire to provide rental
housing equally where needed for
defense purposes.
