Sites for new public housing
projects. rapidly disappearing in
Washington, must. be found if
the city's 10-year attack on
slums is to succeed, officials were
warned today.
James Ring, director of the
National Capital Housing Au-
thority, which provides public
housing for low income families
said his agency is "scraping the
bottom of the barrel" in looking
for sites.
He told officials from through
out the Nation attending a Ma
tional Housing Conference at the
Hotel Statler that the NCHA had
a very difficult time finding
eight locations for $500 new
low income dwellings projected
for the immediate future.
These 1,500, he explained, will
be needed to house families ex-
pected to be displaced during the
first three years of the Districts
city-wide urban renewal pro-
gram.
Two Suggestions Made
He said he had no idea where
future projects can be located,
but made two suggestions:
/. That special public housing
areas be set aside within slum
sections cleared for rede7elop-
ment.
2. That officials abandon the
idea of large single projects
and scatter public housing build
ings among private housing in
the renewal areas.
John Ihlder, former NCHA di-
rector and veteran public hous-
ing champion, charged that the
proposed 10-year slum program
has not made adequate provisions
either for families who need
public housing or those with
slightly higher incomes.
Mr.. Ihlder, however, compile
mented the Redevelopment Land

ratify the treaty before the Big

testified, ito note that the Aus
trian government has indicated
it's intention to raise a substan-
tial armed force and its resolve
to defend it's independence and
neutrality with all the resources
at its command. The steadfast
and courageous behavior of the
Austrian people during the years
of occupation gives every reason
for confidence that the Austrian
people and government will hold
to that intention"
Cites Austria's Intention
Mr.. Dulles statement on mill
tary assistance came in answer
to a question from Chairman
George, Democrat, of Georgia.
After the hearing Senator
George was asked if he saw any
inconsistency in giving military
aid to a country pledged to neu-
trality The Senator said he was
merely seeking information.

Dulles pointed out that the Aus

Is your rug really clean? You
may think so, but did you
know that Unless a carpet is
put through professional clean
ing processes, using modern

as 15% OF the grease and Crime
cannot be removed? Ordinary
do-it yourself methods do only
half the job. s.
Grease is the bugaboo of lovely
carpets. 1t imprisons dirt and
CRIME down in the roots" of
the pile, causes it to mat"
down and stiffen. A rug loses
much of its texture and resili-
ence unless every iota of grease
is removed.
So, in the long run, prolong-
ing the life of your carpets by
sending them for thorough
cleaning at least once a year,
SAVES YOU MONEY-because
a really clean rug is longer
liued. Dirt, insects, grease and
CRIME cannot take their toll.
Our methods are based on those
developed by the National In
