Prices OF Some New Homes
Being Cut, Survey Reveals

The Federal Reserve Board re-
ports that spending for construction
hit new record levels this year and
real estate sales remain high, but
that homes in some areas are now
selling more slowly and at reduced
prices. Overall demand for housing
is still increasing, the Reserve Board

velopments, although at slackened
pace. Rents have increased since
federal controls were removed, the

"MY QUEER DEAN"
Continued from page mine

Don't. And may suggest that you wait be-
hind locked door? Don't admit Mrnms or
anyone else you don't trust - until we get here.
I'm afraid, Doc, share the professors skepticism"
'Oh, so do l." murmWed the Dean. THE odds
on this being swindle are, should think several
thousand to one. But one can't help saying to
oneself, suppose it's not?"
1T WAS nearly half-past seven when the Queens
entered the Arts building. Some windows on the
upper floors were lit up where few evening classes
were in session. and the Deans Office was bright
Otherwise the building was dark.
The first thing Elery saw as they stepped out of
the self-service elevator onto the dark third floor
was the door of Dean Hopes anteroom . wide
open.
They found the old scholar crumpled on the
floor just inside the doorway. His white hairs
dripped red.
Crook came early" howled Inspector Queen
Look at the deans wristwatch Ellery = smashed

Il warned him not to unlock his door," walled
Ellery. Then he beloved. He's breathing! Call
an ambulance!'
He had carried the Deans frail body to couch
in the inner office and was gently wetting the blue
old lips from a paper cup when the Inspector
turned from the telephone
The eyes fiuttered open. ''Ellery. )"
DOC, what happened?"
Book taken. " The voice trailed off, .
Book taken?" repeated the Inspector incredu-
lously That means Mimms not only came early,
but DR.. Hope found the book was genuine! Is the
money on him, son?"
Ellery searched the Deans pockets, the Office,
the anteroom. Its gone.''
Then he did buy it. Then somebody came
along, cracked him on the skull, and lifted the
book"
Doc" Ellery bent over the old man again.
DOC, who struck you? Did you see?"
"Yes. Gorman :" Then the battered head
rolled to side. and Dr. Hope lost consciousness
"Gorman? Who's German, Ellery?"
Professor Oswald Gorman Ellery said through
his teeth "one of the English faculty at the lunch
today. Get him.
WHEN Inspector Queen returned to the Deans
Office guiding the agitated elbow of Professor Cor
man, he found Ellery waiting behind the Deans
flower vase as if it were bough from Bmnam Wood
The couch was empty.
'"What did the ambulance doctor say, Ellery?"
Conclusion. How bad they don't know yet"
Ellery rose, fixing Professor German with Mac
dufian glance. Where did you find him, Dad?"

more attractive than the new
public housing"
With the sale of these 176
units, and the transfer of the
additional 324 units in another
development-knoWn as Canaan
Village-to PHA, the Bridgeport
Housing Authority has lost a
total of 500 public housing units
This means that the authority
has gained a net of only 284
units from it's recent 784-unit
construction program undertaken
at total cost of $8,232.813.>
Up to July /, this year, the
Bridgeport Housing Authority
operated the 176 units that we're
sold, and the 324 units that are
to be sold in the future, on lease
from PHA. On that date, they
were turned back to PHA.
Why didn't the Bridgeport Au-
thority arrange to take over
the existing 500 units perma-
nently, as it could have done

there were 100 vacancies in
Bridgeport public housing
units, Bridgeport newspapers
reported.)
Meanwhile, since Thursday
morning The Star was in touch
with the Public Housing Ad-
ministration headquarters here,
seeking facts about the circum-
stances that would explain why
the Bridgeport Housing Author
ity received permission to go
ahead with an expensive new
program of public housing, with
Federal aid, when it had refused
to put to loW-rent use a total of
500 units of public housing that
had been legally available since
1916 for such use.
Late yesterday, PHA said it
tried after 1916 to get the
Bridgeport Authority to take
over the Black Rock Village de-
velopment, but that the author
ity was "adamant" in opposi-
ton.
I'VE made every effort in the
world to get them to take it,
but they just protested they
would not do So" he said.
The spokesman said opposi-
ton from the community led
PHA to decide in 1947 that both
Black Rock Village project and
the Canaan Village project were
unsuitable for loW-rent use"
