Ring Sees Need
Of Reupproising
Housing Concept

The entire concept OF public
housing needs re-examination
James Ring. executive director
Of the National Capital Hous-
ing Authority. said Yesterday.
THE time is overripe," he
noted. "for a broad and studi-
Gus appraisal of the social con-
cept and the economic policies
which underlie the Federally
assisted public housing pro-
gram"
He spoke before the Potomac
Chapter of the National Assoc
citation of Housing and Rede-
velopment Ofncials.
Mr.. Ring cited concern about
the segregation Of low-income
families in public housing
properties. Study is needed to
determine whether these prop
critics should be exclusively for
such families, he said, and
whether there should be pro-
vision in the law for the sale Of
public housing facilities to
prospecting tenants.
An additional problem. he
said, was finding enough sites
for public housing develop
ments.
There's almost no vacant
land left In the District" he
noted. Taking over an existing
slum area and building on 1t
usually involves higher costs,
he said. as well as some con-
fusion with the functions Of
urban renewal agencies.
