Housing Bill Sparks Senate Push For Vast Public Aid
The Senate backed a broad housing program funding 10 000 public housing units over six years at an estimated 308 million dollars annually. It also proposes 250 million in long term farm housing loans 12.5 million in grants over four years and 1 billion in loans plus 500 million in grants for slum clearance. The plan targets self sustaining farms and local governments, with critics noting many slum tenants do not own their dwellings.
