or the fundamentals of physical
science in order to produce facts
to be applied for the improve
ment of housing.
Thus. housing research is done
In many, many different fields of
science and technology, and it is
paid for and performed by many
different sponsors and research
organizations. Much of this
:reSearch being done in some
:other field.
Whole House a Factor.
The great stride of progress
made in the past decade is that
many of these different research
scientists and industry men from
all parts of the building industry
are now beginning to think of
the effect of any one piece of
research on the house as a
whole. The house itself is now
recognized as the end. product
which the huge and diversified
Industry sells to the public, and
:the industry must improve this
product to compete with other
commodities which the public
buys. There is steadily increas-
ing teamwork between the vari-
:ous sectors of the industry to
see to it that research will i'm
prove the whole house and not
just the parts and pieces of it.

struct and often sell the final
end productive house-directly
to the public.
Naturally. they are far more
interested in that end product
as a whole than almost any one
else other than the home owner
himself. Newest Of a number
of projects sponsored by the
NAHB is the aforementioned
village in Austin, Tex.
Another new participant in
the research area are the house
manufacturers. Perturbation
has made progressive strides in
the past 10 years, and some of
the largest companies are giving
serious study to the planning
and engineering of the entire
house and all Of its parts.
Peoples Habits Studied.
Perhaps the weakest part of
the housing research picture is
in scientific fundamentals. These
include study of the behavior
and nature of human beings,
such as the growing problems
of housing the aged; the action
Of climatological and physical
forces and their effect on engi-
neering and air conditioning
and heating.
There is still another whole
side of housing research-the
social and economic sciences
which have much to do with
the housing requirements of the
Nation as a whole. with the
economic health of the house.

ming of communities and cities.
These fundamental sciences
are. farther removed from the
end product than the applied
chronological research, and con-
sequently the values of such re-
search are often slow in being
realized. The universities and
foundations plug away at these
problems but rarely with ade-
quate funds. Some beginning
on such research was made un-
der the HHFA program, but
support is no longer available.
1t is interesting to note strides
that are being made in other
countries around the world for
the development of housing re-
search. It seems that the whole
idea has come of age within the
past decade and technical people
everywhere are developing hous-
ing research activities.
Work Goes on Abroad.
In most of the commonwealth
of the British Empire and in
many of the countries of Europe
there are housing and building
research agencies, usually con-
nected with and supported by
the national government. These
agencies have begun interna-
tional collaboration through a
committee of building research

ing research in the United

progress In housing research il
not yet a story of revolutionary
changes or of astounding achieve
nent. but instead Is one Of steady
advancement.
A most interesting develop
ment in this progress is the ac-
ceptance Of responsibility for re-
search by organizations which
did not previously engage in it.
New Products Sought.
Product development is the
constant aim of the manufac-
turing industry which uses re-
search to maintain a competitive
position in the building market
New building materials are being
developed in company and trade
association laboratories.
Equipment manufacturers-es-
pecially those in heating and air
conditioning-are very active in
research and often work together
with universities and engineering
societies. The constant aim of
all research by manufacturers is
to gain the home owners ac-
ceptance Of new products for
greater comfort and convenience; !;
for easier maintenance; longer
life; greater beauty and econo-
my.
The Government participates
in housing research. For a rela-
lively brief period the Housing
and Home Finance Agency spon-
sored a program of research in
problems not directly connected
with product development. The
results of this research have been
to develop new ideas in modular
coordination, family living re-
quirements, construction meth
DDS, climatic control, and housing
economics. Less known to the
public is, the constant collabora-
ton Of the National Bureau of
Standards and the Forest Pro-
ducts Laboratory with industry
for the advancement of housing
technology.
The Armed Forces sponsor oc-
casional projects in educational
institutions to solve some of the
problems related to the design.
engineering and construction of
housing.
Lumber Study Moves Ahead.
Just a few years ago some 800
lumber dealers associated them
selves as the Lumber Dealers Re-
Council and have been
sponsoring research in home
planning and construction as well
as in some of the problems of
distribution Of building products
with which they deal everyday.
A still newer activity is the
research program of the Ma
tional Association of Home
Builders Research Institute.
The potential for research of
this great segment of the in
dustry is almost limitless. These

Dor as myself" duke 10-2D and
His commandment to love one
another as He has loved us
John 15:l7) are our Lords
eternal proclamations of broth
erhood.
The Book of Acts describes the
struggle of valiant souls to free
themselves of the limitations of
any one group. Peter. in the Wis
ion of the animals let down in a
sheet from heaven (Acts 1919
16), and in. Paul's words of re-
Duke 10 him recorded in Gala
tians CAD, came to see that
Christ has died for all, that all
men are brought together as one
under His Lordship. In answer
ing the criticisms of the circum-
cision party, Peter told them of
his visit to CaeSarea, called there
by Cornelius, the centurian. He
was instructed by the Holy Spirit
to go to CaeSarea with the men
sent by Cornelius. though it was
unlawful for him to associate
with a non-Jew. (Acts 1929.
Just as he began to speak to this
group of Gentiles, they received
the Holy Spirit. He said to his
critics, If then God gave the
same gift to them as he gave to
us when we believed in the Lord
Jesus Christ, who was / that /
could withstand God? (Acts IL:
lO And the Scripture adds,
when they heard this they were
silenced. And they glorified God,
saying, Then to the Gentiles al
so God has granted repentance
unto life" (Acts 11:l8).
Paul declared, God has made
of one blood all nations of men
to dwell on the fact of the whole
earth" (Acts 1920 And in the
Fourth chapter of his First Let
ter, John tells us, IF a man say,
love God. and hateth his broth
er. he is liar: for he that loveth
not his brother whom he hath
seen, how can he love God whom
he hath not seen" ". 20)
Like mighty choir the voice
Of the Scriptures has echoed
down the corridors of time the
great message Of brotherhood
that as children of one Father
we are our brothers brother
And with the concern OF brothers
filled with the compositions OF
Christ, sturdy and clear-eyeo
souls have marched over the
earth to bring this good news &c
every tribe and nation. Today

worship men Of every nation anc
class and language and race. Tht
dark sinister forces of hate anc
bigotry that have been forced
into their gloomy retreats by tn,

threats and seek to break out Il
enslave the hearts OF men again
But ii shall not be, for we hav,
beheld the Holly Spirit falling
on brothers around the worlt
and the day of brotherhood
dawning in the countenance o
the Lord OF us all.
