Housing program to revive construction gains form
The United Press reports a new $1 billion federal housing program form to revive the construction industry before Roosevelt signs the bill. Harry L. Hopkins named director of the program with Carrington Gill to handle administration. Ward Canady will explain credit access to homeowners and boost demand for lumber and building materials. The plan includes an insurance fund of $200 million for building and loan associations and federal loans to finance low cost housing for workers plus incentives for private construction. The measure targets at least $1.09 billion in repairs and mortgages, half for existing homes and half for new.
