Il am glad to welcome you tc
the smokeless city OF the world,
Mr.. Casteel said, In the past
Pittsburgh was famous for two
tllngS-as the steel center of the
world and for more smoke anc
smog than any other city. Ir
the latter, we have done better
job than Los Angeles. You car
recall the time a few years age
when except for street lights we
had difficulty navigating around
the streets until after midday
because of the smoke and smog
Now everything is clear from
early morning on"
Mr. CaSteel is right. The at.
mosphere is as clear as that Of
Washington, and the nickname
Smoky City" no longer applies
Alphabetically, a great dea
has been done to beautify down
town Pittsburgh. Blocks of di-
lapidated buildings have beer
torn down, and in their place
numerous modern, attractive sky.

In some ways Mellon Square
before the William Penn Hotel
exemplities the striving for civic
beauty of the city. The Square
has become a park of grass
fountains and shining gray mar
bic terraces. Beneath this idyllic
setting is an underground gar
age. which through the genius OF
architectural imagination has
beauty as we'll as utility.

First we send the speaker a

U.S.Money Policy Seen
Squeezing Home Buyer

for long term investment money
has outdistanced the supply of
money available for that purpose.
Money for investment is princi-
Ipally' provided by savings. AL
though the American people are
saving more than ever before,
they are not saving enough to
meet all of the investment de-
mandS.
The preSSureS for investment
funds have been generated prin-
cipally by the unprecedented de-
mands of industry to finance
plant and production expansion;
by communities seeking money
with which to build new schools
and other facilities for their
rapidly-expanding populations;
by highway and other large
scale public construction pro-
grams, and by the needs of the
home building industry to fl
nance the new homes that are
needed and wanted by hundreds
of thousands of families.
1t now seems likely there will
be no let up in the foreseeable
future in this demand for in
vestment money and, as a con-
sequence, money for home mort
cages, in particular, will become

Executive Director National Association
Of Home Builders
The tight" money situation
now gripping the nation is ex-
erting pressures that go far be-
yond the home building industry
even though home building is
probably the most seriously af-
fected at the present time.
1t also is affecting adversely
the ability of many of our people
to arrange financing for a new
or existing home.
Tight" money isn't, as the
average citizen perhaps is in
clined to think, just a problem
for big business or, in this case
a problem solely for home
builders to worry about.
1t also affects his ability to
borrow. Further it determines
whether or not he can buy the
commodities he wants ION time,
and how much ne will have to
pay for this service.
Supply Outdistanced
The basic problem - common
not only to home builders, ano
potential home buyers but tt
industry and commerce generally
lis simply this: The demand
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1956-09-15

the most likely to be built in the
modest and medium price brack-
etS.
Prices Forced Up
AS a result there are less and
less FILA and CT homes being
built and more and more homes
being built in the higher-priced
brackets. Contributing to this
trend are the higher costs of
land, labor and material and
the net result is to make it in
creaSingly difficult for the aver
age homeseeker to find houses
that he can pay for.
Secondly, even more important
from the standpoint of directly
affecting the homeseeker, is the
fact that any tightening of
credit pinches all the way down
the line to the smallest pocket
book. This means the lenders
are becoming increasingly more
Iselective and now are refusing
home loans to prospective pur-
chasers that they would have
made unhesitantly as recently
as six months ago.
If a lender has a limited
amount Of money available for
home mortgages you can be sure
he is going to place it where
there is (a) the greatest return
and (b) the least possible risk.
Tight" money - or credit -
all adds up to this fact: An ever
increasing number of average
home buyers and home builders
are being squeezed right out of
the market,
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1956-09-15

increasingly difficult to secure.
For home mortgages, while
"a sound and substantial invest
ment, are not for many reasons
as attractive to many investors
as other forms Of loans. This is
particularly true of the FHA-in-
sured and GI-guaranteed mort
gage loans which are limited to
Az percent interest rate and
have terms extending to a max
imum of 30 years.
U. S. Holds Credit Down
There is still arother factor
When the Federal Reserve
Banks, as they have just done
increase their rediscount rate
the rate at which they loan
money to member banks-it has
the effect of discouraging credit
and further impeding the flow OF
money into forms of investment
which produce the least returns
The result Of this move has been
to further restrict the funds
available for home mortgages.
Here is the way in which these
various forces actually affect
the ability Of builders to build
homes and home seekers tc
purchase them:
First, builders are finding II
increasingly difficult-and ex-
pensive-to arrange for the fl.
nancing Of FILA and CT homes
homes which because of lower
down payments, a longer amorti-
cation period and the less-than-
conventional rates Of interest are

Bowie Opposes

Robert r. Bowie, controversial
nominee for the post of Assistant
Secretary of State for policy and
planning, has taken a strong
stand against admission of Red
China to the United Nations.

fore the Senate Foreign Rela-

held last Tuesday. The COM
mittee cleared the nomination
last week after Senator Know

said he was satisfied with the
Bowie statements.

of Georgia, said the nomination
probably will be taken up by
the Senate next week.
Mr.. Bowie, who had been re-

More Egypt Aid
.Hinted by Black

NEW YORK, Feb. 10 pr
Eugene Black, president of the
World Bank. says the United
States probably will offer Egypt
more aid in financing construc-
ton of the high dam on the
Upper Nile River.
Mr.. Black arrived yesterday by
plane from Cairo. where he ne
igotiated a tentative agreement
with Premier Canal Abdel Mas
ser to grant Egypt a 5000 million
World Bank loan to help build
the huge dam.
Mr.. Black told newsmen he
will recommend approval of the
loan to the banks Board Of Di-
|rectors in Washington. The
Egyptian cabinet also must APP
prove the agreement.
Asked If the United States
would offer more aid, Mr.. Black
said probably" But in such a
long term project" he added,
1.-The question of possible future
loans is a bit too remote" to dis
cuss In detail now.
The United States and Britain
are granting $40 million to
finance start on the dam con-
struction. The two governments
have also announced willingness
to lend Egypt up to $3.50 million
for the dam.
The Soviet Union repeatedly
has proposed to lend about $500
million.
The dam, largest construction
project in Egyptian history, will
be built at Aswan, 600 miles
south of Cairo. 1t will be three
miles wide, 800 feet high and
cost $1.3 billion.
