Name Address City Committee Will Study Veterans Housing Problems 0 RALEIGH A comprehensive plan aimed at aiding veterans with their housing problems has been outlined by the National De partment of the American Legion and State Commander William M. York has called on the more than 300 posts in the State to “co-oper ate wholeheartedly’’ with the program. Commander York, who headed the State’s delegation to the na tional Legion convention in San Francisco, sent details of the plan to Executive Vice - Commander Paul R. Younts from the Califor nia city. He also pointed out that the program, which will be push ed by the more than 15,000 Legion posts in the nation, has received the endorsement of Wilson W. Wyatt, Federal Housing Expedi ter, and J. D. Small, Civilian Pro duction Administrator. Committee Named In connection with unfolding details of the master plan to at tempt to build homes for veterans from coast to coast, Commander York announced he had named Norman Block, of Greensboro, ‘chairman, and Hail Tribble, of Charlotte, vice-chairman, of a committee to assist post officials in North Carolina in pushing the program. The suggested plan calls for: Formation by the post of a temporary housing committee. Incorporation by the post of a non-profit corporation with a per manent board of directors. Retention by the post of a local attorney and architect. A survey of local veteran home seekers determining the site of the needed housing project, its type and establishing price brack ets, size and approximate cost of each dwelling unit. Selling veteran membership in the non-profit corporation!! with one share of stock with each mem bership. Arranging for each home-seek ing veteran to select and purchase a specified home and lot and make initial payment agreement. Board of directors to take up options on land, approve master plan and individual dwelling plans, let contracts for development of community, let all other contracts and approve mortgage procedure. Board to determine and estab lish exact financial cost to each owner member, credit savings against purchase price and fix specific amount of the accrued payment. In promoting new rental facili ties the post should first deter mine the need for such develop ment, the availability of good per manent renters and seek to inter est investment agencies in such a project. Commander York said the na tional department of the Legion promises that “it can and will as sist its posts in obtaining neces sary priorities for the construc tion of veterans housing projects.” Vice-Commander Younts an nounced he had mailed to each post commander a 24-page book let prepared under the direction of the National Department of the American Legion and entitled “Here’s How on Vets Housing” and outlines steps posts may take immediately to commence co operative local housing projects.
