critics in repair. A noticeable
number don't.
Last spring, inspectors dis
covered 81 violations Of the
health code in a Harlem tene-
ment. They included rat In
festation, disrepair, accumu-
lated refuse and inadequate
heat. The landlord lived in the
suburbs.
Race pofits also are made on
the money market. Some cham
nels for obtaining money are
closed to the Negroes, par
ticularly in mortgage loans.

banker. I'VE must invest 1t in
sound paper. Negroes just have
a tough time meeting our mort
gage standards.
Marginal Jobs
When a person applies for
a loan," says Mr.. Banner. "the
bank looks at his job and his
collateral. 1t relates this In
formation to its experience
with people in similar situa-
tons.
Negroes are most likely to
have marginal jobs with less
security. Generally speaking.
the neighborhoods into which
Negroes are permitted to move
are the neighborhoods no one
elso wants. The house is not
worth much as collateral"
The SPECTATOR. Of course, Is
always willing to step in to
help-for a price.
Mr.. Banner cites as an ex-
ample the case of a Negro who
had a chance to buy a house
at its market price Of $4,000
and wound UP paying $21 900
through a speculator when the
bank turned down his loan.
Not only that, but he found
himself paying simultaneous in
stallments on loans Of $4,000
and $4,000.
THE load is more than he
can handle" says Mr.. Banner.
THE house is old because that
is usually the only type they
viii sell to a Negro. He has no
money left for repairs. He has
to rent out rooms to make ends
meet"
Stun Captive
Mr.. Young believes that the
financial exploitation Of Ne
groes begins with the fact Of
segregation; the inability Of the
Negro to move around within
the whole community. -
Segregation" he says, "in-
variably means inferior schools
which in turn means q ready
source of cheap. unskilled labor.
The Negro doesn't make much
money. He is confined to the
ghetto. the Stun. He is cap
tured.
For example, the small mer-
chant on the corner gives him
ghetto credit. Then the mkr-
chant can do anything be

for his goods. TIE Negro has

else.

AHA Takes Sharp Issue With Interior Dept.

JUNEAU R - The Association of American Indian Affairs took sharp issue Saturday with a report of an Interior Department task force regarding land needs of Alaska's Indians, Eskimos and Aleuts.
 A statement issued by William Byler, executive director of the association, charged that task force recommendations seriously jeop- ardize the future welfare of the natives.
 He suggested that the task force return to Alaska "this time to con- suit with the native people on what they actually need to sur vive"
 He particularly criticized a DOT ton of the report favoring with drawal of only small acreages in the immediate vicinity of na tive villages"
 ''This would clear the way for the state to appropriate the native owned land," the statement said.
 ''The Department of the Interior has chosen to see the Alaska land question in terms of acreage in stead of the needs of the people.
 By drastically limiting it's withdrawals to the land imme- diately surrounding the villages, it fails to guarantee the villagers with enough land to secure their livelihood today and in the future.
 "As a tacit admission that the natives cannot possibly survive on the small acreages' the task force favors establishing, but for a limited time only, the privilege of hunting and fishing in the larger areas to be taken over by the state.
 By placing a time limit on the use of these lands, the department acknowledges what our history has repeatedly demonstrated-a hunt ing and fishing economy is doom- ed once the land passes out of native ownership"

Sub-Standard Housing

JUNEAU LR - Some $2 million worth of standard housing will be constructed in Alaska this year unless a contractors licensing bill is approved by the 1863 legislature, a spokesman for labor said Friday night.
 Henry Hedberg, representing the State Federation of Labor, told the House Commerce and Labor Committee that $1 million worth of sub-standard housing was built in the State last year.
 'I'm not attacking the majority of contractors" Hedberg said in testifying on the bill, "but a small group whose construction is be- low the minimum standards of Federal Housing Administration and finance institutions in the state.

Gov. Rockefeller Lays Out 5-POint Economic Program Of His Own

NEW 1ohh HI - IoN- 4NSlSoAi Rockefeller criticized President Kennedy's economic program Sat urday as failure and proposed an alternate one of his own.
 Rockefeller said the Kennedy program should be replaced by one that would have immediate inn pact, end deficit financing and restore confidence in our econ- omic future."
 The governors office issued his statements after he took off by plane for a Milwaukee speaking engagement.
 Rockefeller, prominently men, toned for next years Republi- can Presidential nomination, told newsmen he is not a candidate that it is too soon for the situation to "crystaliZe."
 He said he was offering his econ- omic proposals because full pub lie discussion of this issue is vital"
 Rockefeller suggested this five point program:
 l. Reduction of the corporate income tax rate to 47 per cent, fully effective in the fiscal year beginning this July 1. This will immediately release $25 billion for new investment and provide the incentive required for a sub- stantial acceleration of economic growth.
 2. An equitable $7.5 billion across the-board cut in individual income taxes also effective in the fiscal year beginning this July l the so-called re- forms which have shaken the con- fidence of so many millions of taxpayers. This would stimulate saving for investment and con- sumer spending in the private sec tor as opposed to government spending.
 3. Hold federal spending down at least to the fiscal 1863 level by cutting back sharply on low priority programs.
 4. Set as a goal-through re- sultant economic growth and re- straint on spending-a balance cash budget in fiscal 1865.
 5. After the budget has been balanced, it would then be possible to reduce the debt and to finance essential new or expanded govern ment programs from rising re- ceipts.
 Rockefeller said Kennedy tried during the first two years of his administration to pump up pur- chasing power by increased de- ficit spending and that ''this pro- gram did not york;
