Public Housing Cost

PORTLAND, Ore. - B - Fed
eral spending for public housing
may soon reach a rate of nearly 81
billion annually, Norman Strunk
of Chicago told the Oregon Saw
ings and Loan Leagues recent
convention.
This increased pressure from
the subsidized housing program
will mean the difference between
holding or not holding the line on
construction costs and prices in
many communities" said Strunk,
who is executive vice-president Of
the q. S. Savings and Loan League.
He cited Congressional apprO-
priatiOns authorized for $4,000 fam
lily dwelling units in 10 months
ending July 1. 1852. AT a maxi
mum cost per unit of $8,450," he
said, cit is possible that an outlay
for construction alone will total
$7SO,0OO.OOO. This is exclusive of
land cost"

JvnsIe Reseue

KUALA LUMPUR, Malaga Up
After five days in widest sec
tions of Kelantan jungles, an r.
A. F. pilot and a police cadet
reached a little village and safety
in Northeast Malaga. They were
forced to make a hazardous crash
landing.
They salvaged their radio and
sent out an SOS which was picked
up by British forces. But, the dam
aged battery failed quickly and
they were not able to direct rescue
operations.
The two men had constructed a
raft and were moving down the
river where they were spotted. An
Raj plane came back the next
day and dropped parachutes with
emergency supplies-including a
portable radio transmitter. The
Raj overhead escorted the raft to
the remote village of Kuala Belts.
