Hioher Food Bill
Nav Be Ahead For
Families Of Ohio

Looks like 1857 would bring
higher food costs, so buckle up.
Population growth in this coun-
try runs about three million per-
sons a year. Extension specialists
in marketing information for con-
sumers at Ohio State University
see the demand for food increasing
proportionately.
AS a result of this trend, the
specialists look for continued i'm
provement in efficiency of pro-
duction on the farm as well as IN
the processing industries and IN
chronological developments to aid
both farmer and industrial handler
of farm products.
Chances are all these factors
will contribute to steady rise IN
marketing costs through the COM
ing year. These higher costs will
be distributed over labor, packag-
ing, materials. machinery, trans
portation, and other marketing
processes.
Much of these increased costs
will mean higher incomes for en-
ployees all along the line. Higher
incomes and further chronological
advances point toward greater
demand for as we'll as an increas-
ed output of special services in the
processing, packaging, and mer-
candising of food products.
Demand is already high and still
climbing for partially processed,
or specially treated, prepared or
packaged foods. As the marketing
system adds this kind of services
to food products, food expenditur-
es generally increase.
Madison County Democrat. (London, Ohio) 19??-1958, 1957-01-11

Another straw in the economic
wind pointing toward higher food
costs in the year ahead is the fact
that many major industries have
contracted for wage increases to
their employees. Such increases
are usually reflected in cost of liv-

Higher incomes make for greater

pushes prices higher. Higher pric-
es make higher costs. These have
to be covered by raising the in

solely on the question of how

But equally, if not more, i'm

Fewer Homes
Now Being
Muss-Produced
BY ROBERT ]. LEWIS
Real Estate Editor Of The star

The home building and real
estate market is of continuing
interest to almost everybody.
What is the present picture?
The Stars Spring Homes Sec
tion today-and the one to ap-
pear next Saturday-will supply
information and opinion on this
question in signed contributions
from persons within the indus
try as well as out of it.
Following is a capsule sum-
mary Of some aspects of the pic
ture based on usually reliable,
impartial sources:
. The number of homes be-
Ing built in the Metropolitan
area is considerably lower at this
time than in the corresponding
period last year. But it Is ex-
pected to total a substantial
10000 to 1900 units by the end
of the year. This would compare
to over $4,000 in 1856, and over
$4,000 in 1855, the all-time rec
ord year.
. Quite a few newer builders
have entirely withdrawn for the
present. leaving the field largely
to established builders. Many
builders are still active, though
with reduced programs.
. Much present construction
is of the custom" type, with a
relatively smaller number of
homes being mass-produced.
. Prices and costs appear to
have stabilized, to a large extent.
Higher building-wage levels have
been Offset, to some extent, by
some materials price cuts. E. H.
Boeckh g. Associates of WASH
ington. the country's leading au-
thority on construction cost
trends, predicts for the metro
politan area a continuation of
the relatively stable costs which
have been current during the
last few months"

slight easing Of mortgage-money
stringency. Many builders ex-
pect some announcement Of ad-
ditional home construction to-

per cent drop in the number of
homes now under way or about
to start. as compared to the
same time last year. The lowered
inventory of unsold completed
houses is viewed as a healthy
market factor.
. In preparing for this years
models. many builders studied

buyer preferences intensively,
hoping. thereby. to have a prod
uct that would stack up we'll

ket. Their concentration on de-

designed to lower FHA down pay
ment terms and increase the
FHA maximum mortgage amount.
. At present, the bulk Of
mortgage financing is Of the con-
ventional type, on up to 20 and
Is year mortgages. FHA and VA
financing also is available.
Though VA loans are not popular

with low down payments in the
under-$15.000 category. They
say it's difficult to produce
homes in the lower-price field,
and that Congress will have to
provide improved financing if
this market is TO be more fully
. The existing inventory Of

lower today than at the same

Foreign Affairs Committee, re-
jected the provision to put mil
itary assistance funds in the
Defense Department budget. It
also refused to authorize the
Development Loan Fund for
more than a year. The admin
iStration proposed a three-year
plan with $500 million for the
first year and SIS billion total
for the next two years.
Year-by-Year Basis
When the appropriation bill
reached the House floor the
fund was limited to $500 mil
lion for one year, with author
ity to appropriate $625 million
the year following. This meant
the administration could not
borrow the $625 million but
would have to ask Congress for
another appropriation next
year for the Development Loan
Fund.
The administration COM
plains that $500 million is much
too little and too low and per-
haps would not even get the
Development Loan Fund of
the ground. House members
who engineered the cut reply
that $500 million is more than
enough as a starter. They ex-
plain also that the year-by-
year appropriation is a proper
exercise Of congressional power
over the budgetary purse anS
a desirable check on executive
discretion" in lending foreign
aid money.
