couraging housing construction
through insurance of private
lending since 1884.
Hardly had this attack on
the Government program been
issued than several key panel
members angrily disasSociated
themselves from the recon-
mendations.
Among them were Henry G.
Waltemade. president of the
National Association Of Real
Estate Boards. and Rodney
Lockwood. former president Of
the National Association of
Home Builders. both Of whom
said the recommendations did
not represent their views.
Lockwood Statement
Mr.. Lockwood wired Presi-
dent Eisenhower this week. as
follows:
81 do not believe that it can
properly be said that the group
reached firm conclusions on
many. if any. of the subjects
discussed. No attempt was
made at any time to poll the
participants, or in any manner
determine. with some degree of
accuracy, the consensus Of
opinion.
II most vehemently disagree
with many Of the recommen-
dations In the report. and
with many of its allegations of
fact. I especially deplore the
inference from the report that
II members of your 1858 Adj
visory Committee on Housing
Policies and Programs who
participated have changed
their minds and would now
make a complete reappraiSal"
of their previous recommends
tons. I confidently assure you
that such is not the fact"
Mr.. Waltemade, head of the
National Association. of Real
Estate Boards. made a similar
disavowal. His statement said

Conventional loans provide

No one wishes this to be so. Anyone, |

for glory and expense account alone?

Not The USLTA's Fault

a popular notion that the men who run the
USLTA connive at violating the spirit or
letter of the amateur code. They most GER
tainly do not. They are men of total integ-

But here in our most tolerant of nations,

of ethics or are stigmatized to some degree.
No, it is not subsidization that is bad.
1t is the fact that one must take the subsidy
under the table, SO to speak. And there,
repeat, the shame is traceable to the code,

Yet they, the guardians of the code, are
its victims as surely as the players whose
activities it is designed to regulate. For here
is a hypocrisy not Of men but of laws, of
tradition rather than policy. 1t states in

WHEN it came into being,
gentlemen of private means

That was all right - then.
But as the times changed and
