"The'fight for public housing

over. The fight now shifts to the
various cities and localities
throughout the country which
wish to construct public housing
projects or undertake slum clear

"It is clear from past events
that local real estate interests
will do everything within their
power to thwart and frustrate at
tempts by citizen groups to start
these projects in their communi
ties.
"We urge all central labor bod
ies to take an active interest in
housing development within their
own community so that labor's
victory in the passage of the
1949 bill will bear fruit in the
form of fewer blighted areas and
more healthful surroundings for

Letter-Press
Printing
Letter press printing in the graphic arts
means the direct application of inked type
and engravings or other type material to
paper.
It Is the simplest of all graphic methods
of reproduction and at the same time the
most lasting. It was the method employed
by the medieval craftsmen who first ap
plied type to paper and it has persisted
throughout the centuries over all innova
tions, until today, when the best of crafts
manship is sought in-a job, there is no al
ternative to letter press printing, along
with high grade paper and typographic
gooid taste.
