Builders Report

Carl 7. Mitnick, president
Of the National Association Of
Home Builders, testified this
week before the House Bank
ing and Currency subcom-
mittee that with adequate
financing the housing indus
try could produce IA million
new homes this year.
One way to insure this A.
nancing would be to place
the CT interest rate on the
same level as the FILA rate,
he said. The present CT rate
is 434% compared to 5A%
on FHA-insured mortgages.
The House Veterans Affairs
Committee last week voted to
raise the CT interest rate.
Mr.. Mitnick said his group
certainly supports the action
of the Veterans Affairs Com
mittee and urges early ap-
proval Of this bill.
IF, as we expect. such
action makes credit avail
able for the GI segment of
the market, it is our opinion
that the home building in
dustry can match 1885 rec
ord. Very possibly it can
attain a level of IA million
strats."
He added that unless a
marketable CT loan interest
rate is permitted we have
no alternative. in view of the
renewed tightness of the
money market, but to urge
that the Congress again pro-
vide at least 81 billion in
special assistance for the
Federal National Mortgage
Association for the purchase
OF FHA and CT loans.
Delbert l.. Burroughs, new
president of the Northern
Virginia Builders Associa-

Trustees of the National Or
thopedic and Rehabilitation
Hospital in Arlington.

accused the District Of tagging

master plan:
Nike-Hercules-In the aggre-

in the program, representing a
reduction Of 1874 battalions.
The Army missile has a range
Of up to 100 miles and carries
an atomic warhead.
Bomarc-The reduction was
$740 million over the life Of the

Nike-Zeus-An increase OF

There was no reduction in the

The other item appeared in
> Columbus newspaper. II told
of senior high school students
taking time out from their
public school classes TO tell
fhe delegates TO a PTA con-
vention that the students
should have q course in school
which would counsel them on
marriage.
Now Mr. X. could probably
reason that our young people
need his way of life and in
turn the PTAer's could UNI
doubtedly show a reason for
more financial aid for schools.
But in the meantime the
young people are scoring a
point. They are stating that
religion is necessary. They are
asking for q moral code, for
guidance in living, for relig-
ion. Maybe they don't realize
it and indeed, if they ever do
get their request ii will prob
ably find IFS place in the cur
rieuIum under the social stud
les. The plain facts r there
however. These young people
sense that they are missing
something, and irdeed they
are. They are being cheated
of their birthrisht-the OPP
%portunity TO learn how TO give
their lives back to God, in
marriage.
This could also serve to
show that youth in Catholic
schools do not realize how
good they have it. They have
marriage counSeling from the
first grade on up. Certainly,
there is definite need for i'm
mediate preparation which is
given by the Priest to a couple
contemplating entrance into
marriage. But this will neces-
sarily be concerned with the
immediate needs of the more
intimate life which will be
shared by two people who
have already had the remote
preparation. This is the step
by step guidance in the ways
of love of God. For every mar
riage is necessarily the culmi-
nation of the desires of two
people to love God together
and to give mutual assistance
in the daily task of striving
for personal sanctification.

have succeeded in stimulating

Shall it be said of the
youth of America today that
they have not been able to
meet the challenge of hard
and dangerous tines? Shall it
be said that they have lost
the spiritual capacity to re-

ana tnOugnt.
The Beatniks, in particular,
represent organized disorder.
They are not Communists or
Socialists; they are Nihilists.
Their concept is the nothing
ness, the futility, the mean
inglessness of an unmitigated
materialism against which
they rebel, but in no direc-
ton. If they found direction,
it would mean, for them,
hope, which they also reject.
They are not even evil.
Their unshaved faces, their
unkempt hair, their unman-
nerly habits, their general
sloppiness mirror their minds
which find neither hope in
logic nor beauty in emotion.
They despise conformity; new
ertheless they conform in
their sloppiness ss though
they were in uniform.
They are a response to the
challenge of materialism UNI
softened by spiritual assump-
tions. AS they believe in moth
ing, not even in themselves,
they do not believe in God or
His mercy or in His guidance
for good.
BeatnikiSm Is a passing
fashion among our youth.
From such, America will gain
no strength. This is an era
when the best minds are re-
quired in the interest and
service of our country. But
great minds must be temper
ed by loyalty and honesty and
sincerity of purpose. The
mind, without the heart, can
bring ruin brilliantly de-
vised ruin - in its wake. This

in their revolution and there
