Today's acuta housing shortage
was in plain view ten yaars ago
Experts In the business of buildlnj
and equipping homes were writinj
articles and making speeches bad
in the 19S0's forcasting what the]
called the building boom of th<
1940's. They supported their pre
dictions with sound reasoning ant
leaders in many equipment ttnei
arranged to meet the demand.
A quick look at census figures
years before Pearl Harbor, woulc
have convinced almost soy bod]
that an unusually big share (saj
20%) of the U. S. population woulc
reach an age to be married be
tween 1940 and 1946. Patently thh
would call for more places to live
cm, true to form under free en
terpriie, business men began get
ting ready quietly to serve thii
marnet, Dut war interfered.
Plans Not Executed.
Wars always frustrate plans, anc
few were revised more In Work
War II than those of the buildinj
trades. Priorities on materials
general shortage of labor and the
compelling urge for victory changed
most things but the predicted neec
for. mora housing came right 01
schedule. It is even bigger thar
experts estimated ten years ago be
cause war retarded building anc
accelerated marrying.
Plans made before the war foi
meeting this expected peak demanc
are still workable plans. If indua
try were free today as it was then
people who want homes would b?
getting thlm a great deal faster
I believe Herbert U. Nelson of the
National Association of Real Estate
Boards has proved that Washingtot
bureaucracy is chiefly to blame foi
today's housing shortage.
Facts to Remember
It's an old story that America ha!
housing a plenty, and it was always
true until right lately. France
England and other European countries
that have endured regulatior
of home building since World War 1
have been short of housing mean
while. Bureaucracy got a firm grit
on American building during Vorlc
War II and now hates to let-go
shortage or no shortage.
The O.P.A. is the sorest bunion or
the toe of our progress. Here is ar
illustration: Manufacturers of fii
doors got caught behind increased
manufacturing costs and askec!
O.P.A. for permission to raise price:
7fc per door. It was refused. Re
suit: No doors by mass production
Carpentefq can build dooriB when
they hang them, of Course, at much
loss of time and at several timet
normal cost.
Industry Is Ready.
A similar man-made muddle built
? 1. -
? wmcuvi a ui wmuuw SttStl
There's almost no end to the rostei
of crippling rules in this one industry.
Miles Colean, a thoroughly respected
Washington economist, sayi
that industries producing building
materials are fully reconverted, ful
capacity restored. Still the mosl
productive nation of history is hand
cuffed and can't house itself. Whyl
A price-fixing agency, while proclaiming
its loyalty to the people,
has refused many small strategk
upward revisions, thus halting production.
Consumers do without
things or pay amazing prices foi
makeshifts. It savors of the Marie
Antoinette school of thought. On being
informed that by reason of hei
extravagance her subjects had nc
bread, she said "Let them eat
cake."
It is much ha.uer to brc?'l chickens
for high eurg pro'iactiou than for
high meat production
