What Is a Forecast Home?

One out Of every 10 persons
throughout the Washington
Metropolitan Area has visited
q Forecast Home since the
first Of this type Of dwelling
was opened for public inspec-
ton in the summer Of 1861.
BY the end Of 1862, ap-
proximately 100000 persons
viii have gone through the
various model homes, all of
which include central gas air
conditioning and heating
units as standard installa-
tions.
During the past year, Fore
cast Homes have been on dis
play in more than q dozen
community developments in
suburban Maryland and
Virginia. Presented by the
washington Gas Light CO. in
cooperation with leading
home builders, the dwellings
exhibited have ranged In
price from $4,000 to $50, 900.
All feature the latest con-
cepts in design and In the use

The first Forecast Home
in Virginia was opened on
July 8, 1861, at Kings Park,
in Springfield, Fairfax
County. The model, the
Princess, was built by Rich
MARI Construction Corp,
with sales handled by Routh
Robbins. The four bedroom,
two and q half bath dwell
ing, complete with garage
and central gas air condi-
tioning, is still on display,
and sells for only $23.S15.

ton in terms Of 1862. A
median-priced new home
today costs about $4,000,
according to both the Nation
al Association Of Home Build
ers and the Federal Housing
Administration.
This median-priced house
is a single family home with
an average Of five and one
half rooms including two or
three bedrooms and at least
one and one-half baths.
Now, let US consider the
initial outlay required to buy
the median-priced home.
We assume the house is pur-
chased with an FHA-insured
mortgage at 5A per cent
interest. There will be a
charge of one-half Of one
per cent which FILA makes
for insuring the mortgage,
which is to run for 80 years.
These are typical current
terms.
The down payment under
these terms likely win be
$3.50, leaving q mortgage Of
$14,550. However, when you
sign on the dotted line"
there are closing costs. In
this case, they ordinarily
would run from $3.50 to $500
considering the Nation as q
whole.
In addition to the closing
costs, one should also con-
slider an expenditure Of ap-
proximately $500 for escrow
insurance and taxes and
probably 500 in interest.
However, these two items can
be deducted from your in
come taxes.
Closing costs cover such ex-
penses as legal fees, q search

Is it cheaper to buy your
own home or to rent?
Virtually every family has
asked this question at one
time or another. Actually,
there is no single answer
that will fit every family.
But for most families, the
answer strongly favors the
home buyer.
The last Government re-
port on the cost of owning
in contrast to renting was
issued in 1854. 1t was based
on figures compiled by the
Bureau Of Labor Statistics,
the Government agency that
keeps track of the cost of
living. Its report said:
Even with operating and
other recurring expense ad-
ded to mortgage payments,
monthly cash outlays for
housing were smaller for the
average metropolitan family
who bought a new house in
1949-1950 than for those who
rented new dwellings"

in the Kongolo area.
These missionaries belonged

River. But there still is hope
they are alive, since that area
was reported in Katanga's s
hands, a white priest reported
here today.
Evening star., 1962-01-18
BY j. A. OLEARY
Star Staff Writer

Secretary of State Rusk held
out hope today that the political
crisis in the Congo may be
moving toward an end" if Noise
Tshombe of Katanga. keeps the
agreement he made recently
with the central government.
Appearing as the first witness
before a Senate Foreign Rela-
tions Subcommittee on African
Affairs, the Secretary said Mr..
Tshombe has indicated he will
abide by the agreement.
The Secretary said that If he
does, both the Congolese and
the United Nations can turn
their attention from military
efforts to the peaceful task of
restoring the economy of one
of the wealthiest countries in
Africa"
U. N. Role Backed
"The U. N. role in military
matters can be brought to an
end with a political settlement
on constitutional and other
questions among the Congolese
themselves and through U. N.
assistance with the training and
organization of the Congo's own
security forces" Mr.. Rusk
added.
Technical assistance in ad-
ministrative, economic and So
cial fields will undoubtedly be
required for a considerable
time. 1t is simple, but correct,
to say that the U. MS purpose
is to help achieve as rapidly as
possible the conditions which
will permit the U. N. to with
draw, leaving full responsibility
to the Congolese themselves. We
support them in that objective" I"
After hearing Mr.. Rusk and
Undersecretary of State Ball
behind closed doors the sub
committee decided that all SeS-
sions would be closed because
negotiations between opposing
factions in the Congo are still
at a delicate stage. If public
hearings seem desirable later
the question will be submitted
to the entire Foreign Relations
Committee.
Subcommittee Chairman Gore
said he was favorably impressed
by Mr.. Rusk's testimony. He
said it was "Soundly based in
fact and policy" Mr.. Rusk's
statement was released soon
after he delivered it.
Bonds Not Discussed
According to Senator Gore
the question of whether the
United States should buy $500
million of U. N. bonds to fl
nance Congo operations did
not come up today. But if any
Senator inquiries about 1t later
the question would not lie ruled
out of order, Senator Gore
said.
The full committee will go
into the bond issue separately
when President Kennedy sub
mits a bill for that purpose.
Senator Capehart. Republi-
can of Indiana, said the State
Department officials were "op-
timistic, but not tco certain" of

intervention and direct military
aid from the United States.
The Secretary recalled that
three days later. July IA, 1860,
Congo officials cabled Russian
Premier Khrushchev as follows: {:
we have to ask the Soviet
Unions intervention, should
the Western camp not stop its
aggression"
Cites Military Problem
Mr.. Rusk said the problem
was to restore order and per-
NIT withdraw of the Belgian
troops without bringing inter-
nal collapse. He said that from
the start former President Eli
senhower rejected direct in
tervention by the major powers
and insisted on action through
the U. N.
"The alternative to United
Nations intervention would
have been violence and chaos
and a ready-made opportunity
for Soviet exploitation, which
the United States would have
been compelled to counter"
Secretary Rusk continued.
There was no alternative to
limited intervention on the
part of the United Nations
If a direct conformation of the
great powers in the heart of
Africa was to be avoided. Thus,
the United States strongly sup
ported United Nations action in
the Congo. Looking back.

now that this was the right

EMPLOYE APPEALS-Presi-
dent Kennedy yesterday also
issued another executive order
guaranteeing Federal employees
the right to an administrative
appeal to their own agency
from an adverse action.
This has nothing to do with
the provision in the labor
management order giving veter-
ans and non-veterans alike the
right to appeal adverse agency
actions to the csc. Rather,
it is designed to give an en-
ploye the right to appeal to his
agency before taking the matter
to the csc if the appeal is
turned down at the agency
level.
This second executive order
gives the employe the right to
an expeditions appeal, with the
right to be represented and
advised by a representative of
his own choice in making the
appeal and at the hearing.
The Civil Service Commis-
sion was directed to issue regu-
lationS putting this order into
effect not later than April /.
Employe leaders will have the
opportunity to express their
views to the CSC as to the
formulation and operation of
the appeals procedure.
Employees will be entitled to
one level of appeal and a hear
ing within the agency.
Exempted from this order are
the FBI, Central Intelligence
Agency, the National Security
Agency, the Atomic Energy
Commission and the IVA.
