Priest Urges Mass Production
Housing On Cooperative Basis
Explains Law Governing Coop Building Projects;
Says Homes Would Cost % Percent Less

build as few as twelve homes and
can expand the operation to as
much as S5,000,O00.
Home buyers join the coopera-
tive and build homes in the subdi-
vision in accordance with their
means, so that the result might be
$50 homes Of every type and de-
scriptionand varying prices being
built ar the same time in the same
subdivision.
The cooperative, directed by the
five incorporators, buys up the
land-streets are laid out, paving
is put in, curbs and sidewalks and
driveways are required, all homes
must conform to the standards of
the FILA, and all buyers must have
their individual loans and ability
to-pay status approved by the FILA
supervisors.
THE loans on such housing can
be extended over 25 or 40 years.
This makes it possible to own a
first-class home, adequate to the
needs of the individual family, by
paying no more in monthly install
ments than most people are now
paying for slum housing. Tie loans
carry an interest rate Of four per
cent, and the fees for lawyers, ar
chitects, contractors, and general
administration, are limited by law
to percentage of the whole.
zone of the greatest problems
which we face is that of housing, -
he asserted. How can a man hold
up his head and hope that his chill
dren will see a better day when
he has to live in hovel without
water or plumbing?"
Public housing, he went on, "is
the initial step for clearing up our
sIums successfully and giving many
of our people adequate housing"

KEY To Peace

VATICAN CITY -(Radio NC1 -
Men must strive to possess Christ'S
peace in their own hearts and their
families and to spread it wherever
they work, otherwise it is impos-
sible to establish peaceful
world"
This message was given by His
Holiness Pope Plus XII during an
audience for Italian government
workers.
The peace of Christ, which was
the first thing he offered to the
Apostles after his Resurrection,
means the tranquility of order
that is, when all things are in their
proper place, the Pope said,
God is everywhere and always
in His place" the Pope continued,
"but when a man or a group of
men, in abuse of their free will
treat and consider God as stranger
to some field of private or public
life, then disorder comes and there
is the prerequisite for destroying
peace"
The Holy Father regretted that,
in spite of all he had done together
with many really devoted souls,
there still remain those who are
fighting against this order. In
words which can only be under
stood as applying to modern lai-
cists as well as to communists in
Italy and elsewhere, the Pope de-
plored the fact that they labor
and fight to Danish Jesus from
the souls, from the families, from
the schools, from their field of
work and from the parliaments."
Referring to communist agitation
among children the Pope said: "We
also know that innocent children
become the victims of this blood.
less but frightful murder: God be-
ing destroyed in their hearts they
are transformed into little demons
raging against God Himself and
His Church"
The Pope exhorted his listeners
to bring Christ into their work and
"to think, speak and act m His
presence" In this manner, ne said,
they will create an atmosphere OF
goodness and peace and human
work, too, becomes a divine thing.

ALBUQUERQUE, N.M-(Nc)--
Mass-produced private homes
through cooperative developments
is the solution TO the housing prob
lem of middle income families.
This view was expressed by the
Rev. T. J. Radtke, executive secre-
tary Of the Bishops Committee for
the Spanish Speaking, at a program
in Sacred Heart Gymnasium here
sponsored by the American G. |.
Forum.
Father Radtke told the meeting
that the most crying need of the
times is that of suitable, adequate
home for families just above the
public housing status"
THE scarcity of homes in the
proper price range for people no
longer eligible for public housing
that is, those just above the middle
low-income bracket-makes it diff
ficult for these people ID find hous-
ing outside the SIum areas" he de-
clared.
A few private home builders are
interested in tapping the middIe-in-
come market, father Radtke re-
ported. In San Antonio, Tex, new
homes have been offered for So
$50, $500, and $500. Five thou
sand people came out to see the
small 60O-ft-square S3,750 home in
a single day. he said.
Hits Small Homes
Unless the homes are built on a
mass production basis, he contin.
ued, the facilities offered at prices
middle-income families can afford
are entirely too small. "They will
serve possibly the one-child family
and no more" he said.
"The mass-produced home is al
least IS per cent cheaper than in
| dividual home building" he added
"Then if we will add the cooper
stive principle, just as we do in
credit union financing, we see an
opening in the dark cloud"
Father Radtke said that a federal
law in May, 1850, has made pos
sible cooperative housing on a
mass-production basis by author,
izing the incorporation of individ
uals and groups in states for hous.
ing developments on a non-profit
basis.
Explaining the legislation, Faith
er Radtke asserted:
Give individuals who intend Il
build and buy homes in the coop
erative form a corporation, non
profit, for building a new housing
subdivision. The corporation car

Suit For Divorce

startled the film colony by filing
suit for divorce from John Kodiak.
In the complaint, filed Mon

Miss Baxter, granddaughter of

She declined to say whether re-

Nor were details disclosed of a
