Builder William J. Levitt told a House judiciary subcommittee that open occupancy would have no impact on Levitt & Sons economics and cited fivefold sales growth since adopting open occupancy in three Eastern states. He reported no racial disturbances in open communities and praised integration as bringing no negative results. Whitney Young Jr. and Time Inc. chairman Andrew Heiskell joined in urging open housing provisions to combat urban center crises and tax-base erosion from segregation.
