IS AMERICA "ILL-HOUSED"? By GEORGES. BENSON President o! Holding College Searcy. Arkansas

IF YOU listen only to boosters for government housing, you will sometimes get the miserable feel* ing that America is in a bad way for shelter and housing. You will be made to feel that the situation is beyond remedy and nothing at all is being done about it. Ac* cording to the “let-government-do-it” boys, if we don’t start throwing billions of tax dollars around tor housing projects, then the whole population is at once ill-housed. While the 'year 1947 did not quite reach the peak of our building boom in 1925, it is estimated that 825,000 new homes were built. One family out of every 40 got a new house in 1947. That is .an excellent record! The Bureau of Census has. reported that 93.2 per cent of all city houses are in satisfactory repair, compared to 88.6 per cent in 1940. Our American housing is steadily improving, despite the many difficulties that have been placed in the way. Record of ONE OF these problndustry lems facing private building is government activity in house construction. Many government projects put up so far are said to have been built because costs were too high for the citizens •to undertake them. Yet, because the government is willing to pay these same “high” costs, the costs are sure to remain high. In government housing, the difference between the rental income and the actual cost is simply passed on to the taxpayer. The government can’t work miracles, but it can levy taxes. If it is the object of federal housing legislation to clear away slums, then I say let communities in which these poor conditions exist dean up their bad sections. Some cities have already put slum clearance programs into effect, without calling on Con-

gress for legislation. Our local governments can do much to stimulate building. Besides requiring property owners to meet good housing standards, they can also eliminate H horse-and-buggy” building codes that keep costs high. What Yoa TO -ASSUME that Can Do Congress, with a public housing bill, can clear away slums, is taking a phony position. There will always be some older and less expensive housing, no matter how much we may build. But if you take charge of the folks with very low incomes and put them in palaces, the rest will be paying the bill for it. Then who gets the premium? This is a beautiful way to-get-more-for-doing-less! You see, the fellow who earns less is better off! A public housing bill could in no way relieve the housing shortage. Certainly, this is not the time for the government to come in and bid up prices of the building materials that are available. Right now, a government housing program would bring no additional skilled labor into the industry, but would simply take the labor that already works for private builders. Do you think these men would produce any more housing, working for the government? If you want to add to inflation and make it more difficult for private housing to go up; if you want to pay your share of multibillion dollar expenditures; if you want to risk these experiments while European recovery is costing us billions; if you want a federal bureau to control 10 per cent of our housing and keep building prices high; if you want to create a giant bureau for political purposes—then you’re for public housing. But the only sane thing to do is to ask your Congressman to oppose public housing bills.

Thinks I’m not his equal, I guess.” Wife: “You certainly are his equal! He’s nothing but a blustering, brainless, conceited idiot.” - It looks like couples get married nowadays before they know each other thoroughly, and get divorced as soon as they do.

Thrifty-minded cooks are turning to poultry for main dishes instead of higher-priced meats and they are especially proud of Roast Duck stuffed with Orange Sweet Potato Staging. Combine 3 cup « hot mashed sweet potatoes with I tsp. salt , 1 cup lightly packed bread crumbs (corn bread if possible), 1 ; cup peeled diced oranges, 1 tbsp. grated orange rind, 3 tbsp. melted gat. This is enough stufllng for a 4-3 lb. duck. Lightly stuff neck, fold skin over back, fasten with skewers. Body cavity should be lightly stuffed, dosed with skewers, then l&fted with string or thread. Fold wipg tips under and tie ends of legs together. After placing on back in shallow roasting pan, let excess fat escape by pricking skin across back, around legs, wings and tail. Roast uncovered in slow gas oven held at 325* for 2 hrs. Serves 4-6. * * * Housewives Who want leisure, yet must serve tasty meals on time, have learned to plan entire oven meals cooked by clock control. All they do is set the clock which automatically lights the oven burner, then automatically turns off the gas when the meal is done. The clock can be set hours ahead of time so that the cook can walk out of the kitchen and let this mechanical servant do~the cooking for her. * * • The removable dsjip trays underneath the top burners of your gas range are as easily cleaned as a dish. Just wipe with warm soapy water, dry thoroughly on bottom and top before replacing. * • • If two tbsp. starch are added to the last rinse water for tea towels, there’ll be no lint left on glassware or dishes to mar th*-*" '
