Welfare stranglehold fuels city welfare expansion
The piece argues big cities draw welfare recipients with benefits and jobs shortages, urging federal reform. It cites a million New Yorkers on welfare and over a billion dollars yearly, urging Nixon’s plan to replace welfare with workfare, federalized funding, and, critics say, a cure not a transfusion of funds to drowning cities.

Housing Yet to Meet 1968 Goal Amid Turbulent Market
New York AP reports that housing starts in January fell to 1,116,000 annual units as builders face inflation, high interest, and tighter money. The 1968 HUD target of 2.6 million yearly starts appears unlikely, with more apartments and mobile homes replacing single houses. NAHB President Barba warns the industry risks crippling. The policy mix favors restraint, driving lenders toward shorter loans and reduced long term funding.
