Bulk of Area Home Building
Is Listed in This Section

Besides appearing in this Sec
ton today, the lists will be re-
printed next Saturday in the
final section of the two-section
Spring Homes Review.
Announcement of the Spring
Homes Review program was
made by The Star March II. A
deadline of April 16 was set for
builders to have listings in the
mail. to insure they would be
represented in the Directory of
Homes. ...
TIE Spring Homes Review pro-
gram has been hailed by officials
and members of all three WASH
ington area home builder groups.
1t comes at time. they pointed
out, when 1t will be of most use
for prospective home buyers as
projects reach the spring market
stage. All three groups are re-
presented in the directory. They
are the Home Builders Associa-
ton of Metropolitan Washing
ton. Suburban Maryland Build
ers' Association. and Northern
Virginia Builders Association.
Each listing opens with the
general neighborhood in which
the house is located. Listings
also will include the number of
bedrooms, the number of stories,
whether or not there is q base
ment, the directions to reach,
and the name of the builder.

housing market will decline in
the years ahead.
But II all we did was to build
for new families, our existing
supply Of housing would continue
to run down. and the pressing
backlog Of existing market needs
would increase. Most Of our
housing problems today stem
from the fact that we did little
or nothing in the past about
these existing requirements.
Now, however, we are begin
ming to do a great deal, and
there is no question that we can
sustain high building levels for
years If we continue to do so.
The Presidents new housing
program is based on assisting
private industry and local COM
munities to move ahead on a
broad front. to meet existing as
well as new requirements, in a
co-ordinated manner. And the

The comprehensive character
Of the list is evident from a COM
parison of the number of build
ers represented in it with the
total number of members of the
Home Builders Association Of
Metropolitan Washington.
This organization, the only
group covering the entire Wash
ington area, has a total of 273
builder members. Some of these
are. of course, not in active
building operations at all times.
Range Is Broad
A broad range of home types,
sizes, locations and price range
are represented in the directory.
Homes are listed according to SIX
price categories. as follows:
Under $4,000, $4,000 to SIT =
00O. SIT, 900 to $22. 900, $4,000 to
$4,000, $4,000 to $32 900, and
$32, 900 and over.
Houses listed under the dif-
ferent categories have prices
somewhere within the range. A
house priced at $4,000, for ex-
ample, would be found within
the $4,000 to $4,000 price cate
cory.
AS a public service, The Star
invited both large and small
builders to list their homes in
the directory. without charge or

The first comprehensive list
Of Metropolitan Area new homes
ever compiled in the Washington
Metropolitan Area appears In
this section Of The Star today.
TIE Star DIRECTORY OF Homes
is the big feature Of the first
Star Spring Homes Review. In
the directory you will find more
than 800 separate listings of new
homes by almost $50 individual
builders.
While each listing covers a
single home that Is either COM
plete or nearing completion, the
entire list represents the vast
bulk OF the many thousands Of
homes now under way for this
years Metropolitan Area market,
since many Of the individual
houses are a part Of large and
small subdivision projects.
The Directory Of Homes ap-
pears in four separate listings
further along In this section. An
index on the first page of this
section shows the page numbers
for the different lists.
Four Lists Separate
Each Of four geographical re-
gions of the Metropolitan Area
has its own list In this section
of The Star. The separate lists
cover the District itself, nearby
Virginia, Prince Georges County
and Montgomery County.
For the convenience of readers,
maps accompany each of the
lists so that general outlines Of
the areas can be seen at a glance.
With all indications pointing
to record production of homes
this year in the Metropolitan
Area. The Stars list will be all
the more significant in showing
the extent and location of
housing activity, industry spokes-
men said.
Using the list, home seekers
will be able to visit houses and
projects early. Basic informa-
ton on each house will be listed,
as we'll as directions to reach
the sites.
The lists themselves will form
an invaluable guide to the great
bulk Of all homes which will
reach the market within the
next six months.

Cole Sees No Need
To Slow BUILDING

homebuilding rate is at a record
high. Now the fear expressed by
some is that we are moving too
fast, building too many homes.
I am confident, however, that
the housing economy is basically
strong.
The outlook for a prosperous
level of housing activity this year
is very bright. We expect some
normal adjustments. some level
ing off in home finance and pro-
duction during the year. Present
estimates that we will end the
year with close 1.3 million new
units, however, seem to me we'll
founded. and there is no question
that we can absorb that produc-
ton safely.
1t is true, however, that when
you are travelling at a higher
rate of speed, you should be
more constantly alert. watch the
road more carefully for unex-
pected curves. and see that your
car is under full control. We are
doing that in Government. We
are taking precautionary steps
to prevent any detrimental use
Of Government housing credit
aids.
However, we believe current
housing production and home f.
nancing as a whole is soundly
based, and that there is no rea-
son to slam on the brakes.
Some of today's concern is that
because the new home building
rate is much greater than that

Administrator. Housing and Home
Finance Agency

T"ohSC hkchSJ
A veteran in the housing busi-
ness once remarked: when
other people stop worrying about
market. I'm going to start"
But since I am the Housing
Administrator, people expect me
to worry all the time. I find
today's housing worries, how
ever. much easier to face than
those that greeted me two years
ago when I first took Office.
At that time. mortgage financ-
ing was tight and the home
building rate was falling off.
Fears were held that the post
war housing boom was ending,
and demands were widespread
for Government action to stimu-
late production. We made a few
policy adjustments, and given
time. the forces in the private
market corrected the situation.
It was evident, however, that
the Governments housing po-
lieies and procedures had to be
re-geared from the emergency
pattern Of the past to q new
concept Of continuing sound and
stable housing production for
the future. To that end the
Presidents new housing pro-
gram was developed and enacted
in 1854.
Funds Plentiful
Now. two years later, the situ-
alton is reversed. Mortgage A.
nancing is plentiful and the

that approach.
We are already getting results.
Much of today's housing demand
comes not from new families.
but from those seeking better
and larger homes, and the typ

ing has now been replaced by

Big Jump Reported
A large prefabricating firm,
which last year concentrated on
the lower-cost market as financ-
ing became available to more
families under the Presidents
new program, reports that it's
sales in 1854 jumped to 10000
houses, a go per cent increase
over the preceding year. Many
conventional builders have had
a similar experience.
The industry is moving much

more aggressively into housing

vast but virtually ignored mar
ket up to now. And it Is only
just beginning to tap this re-
source, with production as yet
running in the tens of thousands
against a potential demand in
the millions.
Finally, we have underway the
first really large-scale action to
replace and rehabilitate our

blighted housing. Nearly 200
clearance projects are being car
ried out or are ready to 60, with
another 100 in planning sta ges.
In addition, 100 towns and
cities are launching community
wide programs to clear and re-
new their blighted areas on an
even greater scale under the
broadened program of Federal
assistance in the new housing
legislation.
Under a stable prospering
economy. there seems to me no

question that the housing market
in the years ahead is a very large
one. and that we need only to
continue our growing efforts to
serve it. Va
I believe we have crossed the.
threshold of a period of long
delayed by urgently needed hous-
ing replacement and community
improvement through which the
needs of a large part Of our exist
ing population will. at last, be
