City May House S Viet Refugees in Roswell
Mayor Jerry N. Smith said Roswell may be asked to house and educate South Vietnamese refugees under a federal program, using RIAC facilities and 400 vacant housing units to offset a $2.5 million mortgage. The plan would involve vocational training at ENMU Roswell and a police academy style program inspired by the Indian training track. Meanwhile a New Life Fund for three refugees grew to $57.50 as Howes works through security checks at Camp Pendleton awaiting processing.
