THEY PAY MORE TAXES.

By WILLIE EFFIE THOMAS EVANSVILLE — Problems of I minority housing still exist and ; have not been solved because of ! the increasing number of wellplanned public housing units made available to minority groups, it | w as emphasized during the Insti- : tute on Minority Housing held | here last Saturday at Carver Community Center. Principal speaker for the institute, theme of which was "Democracy in Housing,” was George W. Snowden, minority group housing advisor for the Federal Housing Admanistration in Washington,

D. C.

Talking for the dinner meeting which highlighted the institute. Snowden pointed out that many ; communities are trying to cope with the problem of heavy minorj ity group migration into already t overburdened and deteriorating

cities.

Opening the institute early in the afternoon w'as a panel on "Private Housing,’’ with Curt Huber of the local Huber Realty and Int surance Company as moderator. Panelists were Guthrie May, | president ol the Guthrie Builders j Company; DeHart Hubbard, race i relations officer at Cleveland; ; George S. Harris, president of the j National Association of Real Estate I brokers, Inc , Chicago, and Merle j h, Tiede, assistant director of the ! L HA office in Indianapolis. This panel discussed the fact ; :hai there are no plans at present or building private housing for .nir,oi ity groups in Evansville. 1 here is no “open market’ in .his city where a person may buy whsilver home he can afford re,;«ruless of where it’s located, the pai cl noted.

THIS, TOO, IS A HOUSE: Last week, in a series of three articles explaining the purpose and work of the Planned Parenthood Association, a picture was shown of a woefully inadequate structure which housed a family of eight children with their parents, living on $39 a week Those parents, if they had known early enough about Planned Parenthood, could be living in a neat, well-cared-for home like this on about the same amount—the difference
