Dems Call 14 Witnesses In Housing Case
Democratic leaders brought 14 witnesses including spokesmen from the National Housing Conference AFL-CIO Americans for Democratic Action and the American Institute of Architects to press for a broad housing bill. Sen John Sparkman predicted a one package measure broader and costlier than Eisenhower seeks could pass by February end. The administration urged quick action on emergency needs including 100 million for urban renewal 200 million for college housing loans and a 6 billion increase in FHA mortgage insurance authority. Sparkman doubted a two bill approach and expected an omnibus bill by Feb 2. Meanwhile a separate note recounts aviation pioneer and actor career details of a venture with the Mercury Aviation Co. and early flying experiences.
