Show Government Will Lease And Remodel Homes According to S. I. Levin, director of Home Registration Office, a new plan for conversion has been devised by the National Housing Agency wherein your government will lease your house and remodel it to provide pro-vide additional living quarters for War Workers. The shortage of housing is impending the production produc-tion of ships, guns, planes endangering en-dangering the lives o'f soldiers, sailors sail-ors and marines and vitally affecting affect-ing the completion - of our own Geneva Works and the cry for more steel. The cost of conversion under this new program will be paid by the Government and the owner will be paid an attractive monthly rental and at the end of the period will receive back his property in its improved im-proved condition. If he wishes, the owner may arrange ar-range to continue to occupy one unit of the property. Not every home will qualify for a War lease. It must be of such size and construction as to accomodate more than one family. Mortgaged as well as unmortaged houses are eligible, however, Vacant houses or homes even occupied by the owners are the ones most wanted. To be considered, houses must be located within convenient transportation trans-portation distance of the war plants and in districts where the local zoning -laws permit conversion. The answer is to make full use of existing homes in America. Many people have remodeled their property, prop-erty, creating additional family units for the new comers, but others oth-ers have been deterred by the cost or lack of convenient financing. Now your government offers thousands of home owners a new opportunity to help win the war and at the same time earn an Extra Cash Income from their property. A quota of 125 units are' to be remodeled in Utah County under the Homes Use Program. If you believe your house suitable for a war lease fill out an application blank at the Homes Registration Office at 32 West Center Street, Provo. |
