Uncle Sam Goes On Buyers' Strike Against Living Cost By FREDERICK C. OTHMAN United Press Staff Correspondent WASHINGTON, April 22 (U.R) Looks like our Uncle Samuel, himself, is on a buyers' strike against the high cost of housing. The story is a weird one. Uncle found himself a couple of years ago with thousands of empty barracks bar-racks left over from the war and hundreds of thousands of homeless ex-soldiers. Why not do the obvious? Move the barracks to the cities, remodel 'em a little and at least give the G. I.'s and their brides a roof over their heads. The federal fed-eral housing expediters flicked their slide rules and came up with the figures: They could build 200,000 temporary housing units from the old barracks at a cost of $1,900 each. Congress appropriated $445,627. 000 to do the job, numerous cities and universities contributed sidewalks side-walks and sewers, and all over America carpenters began tearing tear-ing down barracks and rebuilding rebuild-ing them into what uncle called apartments. They were hot in summer and cold in winter. They were cramped for room, the walls were thin, and sometimes some-times it took months to set the kitchen sink. Still and all. they, were better than nothing. noth-ing. Every day. seemed like, the costs kept going up. Uncle's bookkeepers book-keepers discovered to their amse-ment amse-ment a year ago that each so-called so-called apartment actually had cost $2,877. With the money almost al-most gone, they had finished only 126,000 units and had 25,000 more either under construction or under un-der contract. Quickly they built about 13,000 of these. This left 12,000 units to go and Istili the costs were soaring. The experts figured now today that each apartment, including a few automobile trailers minus wheels, would cost $4,109 each. The housing hous-ing experts appealed to congress !for another $50,000,000 to do the The house of representatives did a little snooping and discovered dis-covered that 3,700 of these apartments apart-ments hadn't even been started. The congressmen thought it was silly to go ahead with 'em at today's to-day's prices and they cut the appropriation ap-propriation to $35,000,000. This would be enough to finish the converted barracks already under the hammer. The federal house builders cried oat in anguish. Raymond Ray-mond M. Foley, administraor of the national housing agency, and Dillon S. Myer, the commissioner of the public pub-lic housing authority, appealed appeal-ed to the senate, banking committee to put back the missing $15,000,000. Both were grayish gentlemen in gray suits and it is my considered con-sidered opinion ythat they made a grayish impression on the senators. sen-ators. Foley read a statement: Myer tried to read one. "Mr. Myer, we know that costs have gone up' exploded Sen. J. W. Fulbright of Ark. "We know about the shortages of soil pipe. Why tell us this all over again?" j The commissioner flushed. He 'never did get to finish his speech. Odds are that the senate will join the house in its strike against the high cost of turning tar paper and second-hand wall panels into apartments. The 3,- :700 units probably will not be built. 1 The others eventually must be forn down. That will leave uncle with an investment of nearly half a billion dollars and nothing imuch to show for it but the un-i un-i happy faces of the tenants he's already got. They'd move out tomorrow to-morrow if they could. Poor uncle SYV News--- Judge Named For May 23 Horse Show Idahoan Killed In Traffic Accident WAA To.

The Utah State Tax commission commis-sion said tocAy that they have received word that there won't be any steel for license plates next year. This news has the commission wondering what to do about the 1948 plates and they have several alternatives in mind. One is the substitution of stainless aluminum. alumin-um. With such plates only the numbers would be painted and the background would be left in natural metal. Another alternative alter-native is the decalcomania plate such as was used in 1944. But the commission is wondering about the legality of such a plate. j FIREWORKS PROHIBITED IN A-BOMB CITY ' RICHLAND. Wash..
