Frederick to Clear 20 Acres for John Hanson Homes
Frederick officials announce demolition of 47 substandard houses in the 4% ixth North Bentz-Five and H. street area at an estimated cost of 1.2 million dollars. Seventy eight low income families will be housed in seven brick buildings on about 20 acres. Klinehart's Alley will be widened. Eligible tenants must meet income and housing criteria with rents tied to family size. Taxes totaling about 35,000 have been paid in lieu of taxes over 20 years. The project is the fourth in Frederick, following Lincoln and Taney, Carver. The new complex may be named John Hanson Homes.

Senator Aiken says Eisenhower may call one if cotton crop reports indicate a grave situation, while Senator Stennis urges a conference to craft a bill before Congress quits. House rejection of a new farm bill prompts Rayburn to declare the farm measure dead for this session.
