Housing Aid Up for Vote
The Senate prepared for a pivotal vote on President Truman's proposal for government housing aid for middle income families. The plan would authorize 1 billion dollars in long term, low interest loans to cooperatives and non profits to assist families earning 2400 to 4700 dollars yearly to rent or own better housing. Supporters argue it is less inflationary than existing commitments and it is part of a broader housing bill with additional programs.
