LBJ Housing Bill Aims to Help Poor Families Buy Homes
Congress sent President Johnson a 5.4 billion housing bill expanding aid for low income families to buy homes. The package includes flood and riot damage insurance, model cities funding, and public housing expansion. It envisions subsidies for buyers and new town development with safeguards for buyers in interstate land sales. A separate burglary report notes $125 stolen from a Long Beach resident.
