builders and developers have
never been able to construct
decent, st an d ard housing
within the price range these
families could a afford. The
only way found thus far to
construct any substantial
amount Of decent housing with
in their means has been
through the public housing
program.
Just what has the public
housing program accom-
plished since 1887 when it got
its start?
These are the tangible re-
suits:
Over the years, more than 2
million people have had OPP
portunity to live in decent
sanitary housing. Today,
more than 2 million people,
half of them children, are iv-
ing in the $500 dwellings
located in nearly 1000 COM
munitieS across the Nation.
These DIV ellings have re-
placed an untold number in
the slums of America.
Five billion dollars Of i'm
proved property, owned by
tn e communities participant
ing, have been added to the
national housing inventory Of
standard sanitary dwellings.
It has given at least 10000
man-years of direct work to
the construction industry and
comparable work to all the
industries supplying the con-
struction trades.
Cooperation of leading ar
chitects is resulting in the de-
sign of dwellings which are
upgrading the appearance Of
whole neighborhoods.
Its tangible results are i'm
possible to calculate, but it
has enabled millions of citi-
zens to participate in the eco
nomic growth Of the United
States.
And the cost to the tax
payer?
Last year, a couple with
two children and net income
of $1,000 put up "a cents
through their income tax to
help provide decent standard
housing for 2 million men, wo-
men and children.

Low-Cost Housing
Is National Aim
By MARIE c. MCGUIRE
Commissioner, Public Housing Administration

Communities all across the
Nation are awakening to the
need for housing families Of
low income, and are calling
on the Public Housing Admin
istration for assistance.
Formation of 300 more local
housing authorities in the past
two years has placed de-
mands so great on the agency
that the authorization under
which the program now Oper-
ates probably will be exhaust
ed in this fiscal year.
The question arises: What
then? What is the future OF
this housing program whose
direct beneficiaries are poorer
people? It should not be a
difficult question to answer for
a society as affluent as ours.
Basically, we must decide
whether decent housing for the
economically disadvantaged is
preferable to maintaining
slums. We must decide wheth-
er renewal and rehabilitation
of some of our cities should
come to a halt, a hiatus which
business leaders and other
civic-minded citizens would
wish to avoid. Yet this would
be inevitable unless provision
was made for housing dis
placed families Of low income
Fortunately, many Of these
leaders regard Federally as
sisted housing not just as a
real estate operation for the
Door, but as a community ia
cility-like schools, libraries
or parks in which all citi-
zens can take pride and from
which the whole community
benefits.
They are well aware, too,
that the Nation cannot fOrsake
the IS million low-income
families, Of which S.5 million
live in substandard homes,
and give assistance solely to
those in higher income
brackets.
Why, it may we'll be
asked, are so many living in
dwellings that are dllapldated
or without sanitary facilities?
They are in subStandard
housing for different reasons.
Some because they have roots
in a neighborhood or are mi
grants from rural areas =.
others because of a lack Of
education, or physical a n d
mental handicapS, and some
because of an adverse turn Of
fortune beyond their control.
ALI have one thing in COM
mon: They cannot afford to
buy or rent standard private
housing. About 26 per cent OF
these families have incomes,
according to the 1860 census,
under $1,000; 10 per cent are
in the 5000 to 5000 bracket;
and IA per cent have incomes
between 5000 and $4,000. AL
most Al per cent are elderly.
An equally important rea-
son is the fact that try though

Canadian Defense Minister Resigns: Cabinet May Fall
By MAX HARRELSON

OTTAWA R - The Canadian cabinet fell apart today. Defense Minister Douglas Hardness, an ad- vocate of nuclear weapons for Can ada, resigned and indicated disso- lution of parliament is near.
 Such dissolution would bring April elections, with Prime Min ister John Diefenbaker seeking to restore his Conservative Party to clear-cut majority in parliament.
 Hardness in resigning said he found his and Diefenbaker's views were irreconcilable.
 'It has become quite obvious during the last few days that your views and mine as to the course we should pursue for the acquisi- tion of nuclear weapons for our armed forces are not capable of reconciliation. Thus it is with a great deal of regret that I now find I must tender my resignation as Minister of Defense"
 Hardness said he sent the resig- nation to the Prime Minister on Sunday, along with memoran- dunn saying he intended to make the resignation public today and later speak in the House of Con- mons. He then hinted the Diefen- baker cabinet had been discussing dissolution of parliament.
 Lester Pearson, leader of the op- position Liberal Party, said Hark- ness had "taken the only honor able course open to him."
 Pearson precipitated the politi- cal dispute over nuclear weapons in speech Jan. 12. While opposed to nuclear weapons, Pearson de- clared Canada should live up to it's commitments and accept them both for North American Defense. and for the North Atlantic Treaty Or ganization.
