Senator's Wife Was Real Help In Ohio Battle

‘By GERRY DICK WASHINGTON, Jan, 24 (NEA). — A sense of personal achievement is mixed with Mrs. Robert in her husband, the new Senator from Ohio, as he goes about his official duties in Washington. This is because Mis. Taft had a really active part in his campaign. : From last February right up to election day, Mrs. Taft visited every one of Ohio’s 88 counties. She made speeches before mixed meetings |as well as to women’s clubs. She never left a town without first having organized a group of women to carry on the campaign. Now, with the campaign behind her, Mrs. Taft is busily getting settled in the handsome house she and the Senator have leased on Massa.chusetts Ave.

Both Feel at Home

Naturally, both feel quite at | home. here. . When the Senator's father, William Howard Taft, was President, Robert—then in college —often asked Martha Bowers, | daughter of the Solicitor General, to be his guest at dancing and supper parties in the White, House. Later Martha Bowers became Mrs. Robert Taft, and the young couple moved to Cincinnati. Long active in organizations, Mrs. Taft was the first woman appointed to the board of the Cincinnati Community Chest. She has held office "in the Republican Women’s Club and the League of Women Voters. Politics is her husband’s chosen profession, and it is her hobby. She has unlimited faith in .a rejuvenated Republican Party, “if we bring in live Reépublicans—new blood,” she says. “Women have never before shown such interest in politics. The need is to organize them. They want to be organized.”

Gave Up Sports

Outside of politics and her busy life as a wife and mother, Mrs. Taft has no hobbies. “I played golf and tennis well enough to teach my sons,” she recalled, “then stopped playing when they were too good | [for me. All of a sudden, I began to | realize, the losing side in the game was the side I'was on.” Mrs. Taft takes great pride in (“Sky Farm,” an honest to goodt:ess working farm, where she and her husband live when they are at home. It is about 12 miles outside Cincinnati. “I have a garden there, and like to keep in touch with everything that goes on there. We grow our own vegetables and flowers.” In the summer Senator and Mrs. Taft with their four sons pack off for the Canadian woods. They have a camp near Murray Bay, only ea few miles beyond the home of Mrs. . Wiliam Howard Taft, widow of the late President.

Brown Is Favorite

| For the big day, when Congress convened and/seated Senator Taft (among others), Mrs. Taft wore a

smart brown crepe frock and brown tricorne hat, with gold beads and bracelets to accent her costume. She is a small woman with brown hair and brown eyes, so naturally brown is her favorite color. It is extremely becoming. She has the poise that comes of aving grown used to the limelight. [f it ever made her squint, it must have young. For as the daughter of a licitor General of the United tates, daughter-in-law of the President of the United States, and wife of one of Cincinnati's most rominent citizens, she has been ong accustomed to it.

Allow the polish to remain on a while—-15 or 20 minutes is not too long. Then, wipe vigorously to a brigh vith a

MULTIFAMILY

HOUSING UNITS GIVEN PRAISE

For ‘Middle Class,’ FHA Aid Says.

Multifamily eharment buildings

They'll Be Predominant Type |

predominant type of housing for middle income Americans, according to Percy E. Wagner of Chicago, FHA rental manager for 11 Midwest states. :

Mr. Wagner and John O. Merrill, chief FHA architect for the Midwest states, were here for a conference of Hoosier contractors and builders at the Hotel Lincoln yesterday: “The multifamily apartment proj= ect, built by private capital with FHA-insured loans, offers a solution to overcrowding and good housing at medium rentals,” Mr. Wagner said. “One of the chief problems in this kind of building,” he said, “is the necessity of designing buildings for a long life, so that the original investment, ranging over periods of 26 to 33 years, is protected.

‘We Have to Complete , . .

“Although we do not compete with existing structures, we do have to compete with structures that will be built in the future. “Thus, our big job is to design apartment buildings with a long life—not only structurally, but architecturally.” Mr. Wagner said the necessity of anticipating future types of housing had evoked the latest theories of multifamily apartment design, which, he said, now are being incorporated in large scale housing projects throughout the nation. One of these, he pointed out, is the Marcy Village Housing development, plans for which were submitted to the City Building Commission yesterday for approval. “The most successful of these projects,” he said, “are built over large acreages and are broken up into separate apartment units, con-

taining from 43 to 1000 apartments.” Mr. Merrill, who traced the architectural developments embodied in the new FHA-sponsored projects before the conference yesterday, said: “The more modern trends in apartment design have been restrained by economic conditions over the last nine years. All of our thinking has been on paper. It is only since the advent of the FHA that new ideas are being developed into actual construction.” Mr. Wagner said that the multifamily apartment development, a comparatively recent feature in U. 8. housing, is intended to appeal to middle income groups. The apartments rent, he said, from $12 to $15 a room in the cities where they already have been constructed. “We must look to this group,” he added, “to make a safe investment in this kind of building, on which

mortgage loans amortize over more than a generation. “We naturally want as little risk as possible, and view the middle group as the safest group in which b invest.” ". The large scale, multifamily housing program of the FHA, he said, has two parts: 1. The financing of small apartment units of from 12 to 48 units, with mortgage loans of about $240,000. 2. Large projects, containing several hundred units, with martgage

loans ranging from $200,000 to five millions.
