3 Changes Made
In Lost Measure
Killed by Veto

The Senate Banking Commit
tee today approved a third
housing bill which congressional
leaders have been assured Presi-
dent Eisenhower will sign.
1t makes three changes in
the second bill vetoed by the
President. These would:
/. Remove the cutoff date Of
October /. 1860, from the au-
thority Of FILA to insure private
mortgages.
2. Spell out that the $3.50
million for urban renewal is a
two-year program. Of which
$3.50 million will be available
this year and $500 million for
the year starting next July.
3. Kill the proposed new pro-
gram of classroom contraction
loans to colleges. for which the
earlier bills carried $50 million.
Assured Of Signing
Senator Robertson, Democrat
OF Virginia, Banking Commit
tee chairman. said he was per-
sonally assured by a member
of the White House stah that
the President will sign this bill.
The Virginian said he insisted
on such assurance because he
did not want to march UP the
hill and down again."
Senator Sparkman, Democrat
Of Alabama, in charge Of hous-
ing legislation, said he also has
assurance House leaders will
accept the new bill, and prob
ably pass it under suspension
of the rules without sending it
to committee.
The new bill increases by So
billion the authority Of FILA to
insure private home mortgages,
but establishes a fiat prohibit
ton against the agency issuing
any more lou promises TO in
sure when its ceiling has been
reached.
$2.8 Billion Available
While Congress and the
President have been battling
over a new law. FILA has is
sued letters promising to in
sure $50 billion in new mort
This means only S2.s
billion Of the new authority will
be available for additional
mortgages, plus a carryover Of
5000 million.
Senator Sparkman estimated
that FILA will have used up
this added insurance authority
by October or November OF
1860, and that a new housing
bill will be necessary next
year even though this bill
places no time limit on FILA
authority.
The new bill retains $3.50
million for college dormitory
loans, $50 million for loans I'd
build special housing for elderly
persons and $25 million for
loans to co-operativeS.
$1,000 Units Authorized
1t also retains authority to
start $1,000 new public housing
units. but Senators pointed out
the President does. not have to
make these starts. He has
opposed any additional public
housing this year.
All but two members OF the
committee approved the new
bill. Senator Proxmire, Demo-
crat Of Wisconsin. voted present
