ton of the final 186-unit section
of the East Capitol Street

The low-rent housing project
will be built south of South Cap
itol street near the District line
Construction is expected to be-
gin early this summer.
The homes will be directly
across the street from a 391-
dwelling unit section of the same
project. now under construction
They are expected to be opened
within the next few months.
1000 on Waiting List.
There will be no dearth of ap-
plicants. National Capital Hous-
ing Authority Director James
Ring said his agency has wait
ing list of 1000 for low-rent
public housing.
The SIG million construction
bid was approved by the NCHA
board yesterday. The bid. the
lowest of 10 submitted, will be
awarded to the O'Driscoll Con-
struction Co.. Inc, a New York
firm with Offices here. The high
est bid was $2,26O,00O.
At the same time, the board
formally approved a loan of $2.6
million in short term loan notes
from the Chase National Bank
of New York City. The bank
was low bidder last Tuesday with
an interest-rate bid of IT of
per cent. Mr.. Ring said the in
terest was the lowest the agency
has paid for a long time.
The money will be used to f.
nance the East Capitol street

posed public housing sites-noW
slums-in Southeast and South
west Washington.
WithhOIds Funds.
The board also decided not to
pour money Immediately Into
dilapidated housing units in the
Stoddert Dwellings. located near
Fort Dupont in Southeast Wash
ington. Mr.. Ring told the board
$139,0O0 would be needed to put
the buildings into habitable con-
dition, but that they would still
not be of high standards.
The board voted, instead, to
recommend demolition of the
worst buildings as they are va
Gated, and conduct routine
maintenance on the others.
The future of the prof.
ect area. Mr.. Ring said,
will depend on what Congress
decides to do about public hous-
ing. If it authorizes more, new
homes could be built on the site.
If not, he said, the NCHA would
have to confer with the Public
Housing Administration about
how much money should be put
into improvements.

1,1@ Building Firms
Got FILA Loan Profit,
Revenue Agents Find

Internal Revenue Service
agents have discovered 1,149 cor
porations. 81 of them in the
Metropolitan Washington Area.
h received FHA-insured
housing loans in excess of actual
construction costs and then
passed the excess along to cor
poration owners.
The service said 191 of the
corporations were found in the
Baltimore revenue district. 1t
broke the figure down into 79.in
Baltimore City, 30 in all Mary
land counties. and 81 in the Dis
trict of Columbia and neighbor-
ing M ont g ON cry and Prince
Georges Counties. 1t said it had
found 46 such corporations in
Virginia.
The figure of 81 corporations
for the Washington area does
not include those in nearby Vir-
ginia-Alexandria. Arlington and
Fairfax Counties. The Revenue
Service here said it did not have
breakdown as to location of the
46 Virginia corporations since the
State is in a different collection
diStrict-Richmond.
The FHA investigation, being
carried on simultaneously by
three executive agencies and
two Senate committees, also
brought charges from Democrats
today that the Senate Banking
Committee is concentrating on
the apartment house angle in an
attempt to pin blame on the
Truman administration.
Democrats Protest.
Three Democratic committee
members, Senators Douglas of
Illinois, Lehman of New York
and Maybank of South Carolina,
said that. so far, they had noted
a lack of interest in eXorbitant
fees said to have been charged
homeowners for repairs financed
with FHA-insured loans. These
reports cost FILA Commis-
sioner Guy Hollyday his job on
orders of President Eisenhower.
Chairman Capehart, Repub-
lican, of Indiana said, '"There's
no politics in this thing at ALL"
The committee expects to begin
full-scale public hearings on
Monday.
In addition to internal reve-
nue. and the Capehart commit
tee. FILA is also under investi-
cation by the Committee on
Non Essential Expenditures
headed by Senator Byrd, Demo-
crat, of Virginia and by the
Federal Bureau of Investigation
and the Housing and Home

bert M. Cole.
Two Lines OF Inquiry.
The FHA is under the juris-
diction of Mr.. Coles agency.
There are two main lines OF
inquiry:
l. That apartment house pro-
moters and builders pocketed up
to $75 million in "windfall"
profits by getting FHA-guaran-
teed loans far in excess of the
actual cost of their projects, and
2. That homeowners were
ollked by high-pressure repair
and modernization statesmen who
induced the owners to get FHA-
insured loans and then gave
them short-shrift or shoddy work

to heat tubs of gasoline by drop
ping a hot tailor's goose "a IA
pound pressing iron) into the
liquid while his wife stood by
with wool blanket to squelch
any resulting flames. The heat
treatment made the gasoline
easier on his hands while he was
using it to clean clothes.
Collected Method Data.
In 1916 Mr.. Hubbard became
secretary of the Iowa State AS
ISOLATION of Dyers and Cleaners.
1t had been the practice of dry
cleaners to learn about new
equipment or methods of their
trade from tramp dyers," men
they'd hire who had worked in
other plants and would tell of
their former employers methods.

collecting dry-cleaning formulas
and processes. compiling the in
formation and sending it to as
