(2) Down payments have teen substantially increased for pri vately built housing constructed under the FHA and VA pro grams, thus making it very dif ficult for families without large accumulated savings to obtain any new privately built housing The restricted housing pro gram will produce dwellings al most exclusively for higher in come groups. The immediate re sults. in terms of conservation of materials and manpower, more over, seem to have been nil. Because' wp recognize that the President’s restrictions were es sentially an emergency action and do not necessarily represent a permanent policy, we are urg ing that our entire national housing policy now be recon sidered. We would suggest that the following principles be ap plied in our general housing pol icy during the coming period: <1) Review of entire construc tion program: limitation on those parts of construction industry utilising unnecessary quantities of scarce materials needed for de fense program. (2) No further cu4bacte in the low-rent public housing program for low-income famili«4. Since this program represents the only possible means by w^iich low-in come families can obtain decent housing, it would be ehth^y un fair for the group with the most acute housing need to be cut off from its only method of obtain ing decent housing. ~ ' <3) Passage ly Congress of the co-opt r-tive Wa*i ng program for mukUt-income families which was defeated by • narrow mar : (-in in the present se scion of Congress. This program is ail; the more netessary because in-, r rraaed down payments and high- j er selling prices for the newly built houses deprive this- croup erf any chance for new housing, i (4) Instead of increasing down payment requirements fo homes built under the FHA and VA program*, all classes of luxury j housing should be, directly pro hibited. This will result in con 1 serving building materials and manpower and at the same time will permit a more equitable dis tribution of new housing among the various income groups. III. Special Requirements in Expanding Communities It is very important that some of the disastrous experiences in the war boom areas during World War II should not be repeated daring the present period. Wher ever industrial, areas are expand ed as a result of the migration of large numbers of workers to war production areas, these work ers must be assured of decent ’•ousing and adequate community facilities. IV. Need For Strengthened Rent Control Recognizing the continued short age of housing in many areas of j the country, the American Feder | ation of Labor has consistently , opposed the weakening of the : rent control law. It is obvious that the rent control law which ■ was recently passed by the Con gress is certainly not adequate Tbr the period which we are en tering. f Rent controls must be contin ued" "Beyond December 31, 1950, «"d unless there is m drastic change in the international situ* ■tioa, beyond June 3ft. 1961. The rent control law must be immed iately amended not only to pro vide for eatension beyond its present date of expiration, bat also to permit recontrol of decon trolled communities.. The Hono> in* Expediter should be given sufficient funds to permit a strict: enforcement* of rent controls and to prevent a skyrocketing of rents. 201 CITIES ASK HOUSING FUNDS Washington.— Reservations of capital grant funds under the 1949 Slum Clearance and Urban Redevelopment program have been made on proposed slum clearance projects for 201 local ities in the continental United States and insular possessions.

A millionaire told me this*** *♦ THEM ARIK’T many millionaire* left today, I guess. But my dad went to college with a man who is now a millionaire. Dad took me to lunch with this man a year ago—let’s call him Murray Goodwin. While they were lighting up their cigarr, Dad asked Mr. Goodwin if he had any good advice for a youngster like me. The millionaire looked at me thoughtfully. *Tve got some good advice for anjr man who's working on a salary today. In fact, you'd never hear better! "Always remember,'' said Mr. £oodwin, tapping the table, "that the only money you’ll ever have is the money you’re sav ing right now! Saving part of each pay check is the ONLY way to save! "And the BEST way to do it is to buy U. S. Savings Bonds through your company’s Payroll Savings Plan! These Bonds are the safest, wisest investment you can make. They're backed by the U, S. Government "And," concluded Mr, Goodwin, knock ing the ash off his cigar, **U. S. Savings Bonds return $4 for every $3 invested—ten years later! This kind of saving is automatic, pain less. You never feel it Try it!" • • • 1 went on my firm’s Payroll Savings Plan the very next day. And everything the millionaire said about it is true!
