Rent Rising Woods Says After Tour
Federal housing expediter Tighe Woods reported a few percent rise in the nationwide rent average since spring. He found no figures for steep rent increases in cities with old controls and plans to verify widespread unofficial reports. Woods, fresh from a tour of rent control districts, said builders are not supplying affordable housing for middle income earners and that the 1949 act provisions for fair profit have proved unfounded.

Builders and unions seek Taft Hartley exemption
Washington November 27. Employer associations and labor unions in the vast construction industry asked the government for a blanket exemption from Taft Hartley election requirements. The appeal to the National Labor Relations Board argues that strict application would disrupt bargaining and building. The Associated General Contractors of America backs the employer side and the AFL’s building and construction trades department with 19 unions backs the labor side, representing about two million workers. The plea seeks waiving the Taft Hartley election requirement for the entire industry to certify majority representation before bargaining.
