Washington reports say President Eisenhower asked the Senate Banking Committee to take its time on the national housing program but press for a new housing law this session. Amid FHA shakeups, Capehart noted White House guidance for a solid law before July adjournment, as Olney condemned the agency for obstructing prosecutions and allowing rackets in home repairs. He also cited a parade of FHA turmoil including fired redevelopment officials and a resignation. The committee recessed hearings to next Wednesday to question former FHA officials.
