In August it was 83,000; in September, 81,000. Year ago it was 93,800. In California, where 10 per cent of new homes are being built, slump has been on since April. Same’s true for Texas. Builders used to have buyers before they got foundations down. Now sales above $20,000 are very slow. Resistance is strong down to $12,000 level in some places.

senses Many In GOP Prone To Look O

By ROBERT BLOEM THERE'S MORE behind this crossing of party lines in the race for governor than just the personal . popularity of Democrat Henry Schrickér and his fabulous white hat.

In the minds of hundreds, if

not thousands, of partisan Re- - publicans, it’s a matter of basic .

politics. The truth is, many Republicans believe they can expect more, from a purely political standpoint, from Mr. Schricker than from their own candidate, Hobart Creighton. In the back rooms of the Claypool Hotel practical members of either party will agree that either candidate is well equipped from a “good government” standpoint to be governor. Both are experienced in government; as such. Both are men -of ‘recognized integrity. THERE THE parallel ends. Politically the two are worlds apart. The difference means a great deal to:politicians. Mr. Creighton, to put it bluntly, is out of his league in the present intra-GOP situation. True, he defeated Sen. William E. Jenner for the governor nomination and Mr. Jenner was trained in politics by the master of them all, the late Sen. Jim Watson. But Mr, Creighton had much less to do with his victory than most persons outside politics think. He would have been helpless against the wily and
