Beech Faces Big Problems in Key Post
Washington AP Robert C. Weaver won Senate confirmation as housing chief. The Senate approved after hours of debate, making Weaver the highest ranking Black official in the federal executive branch. He faces a weak housing starts rate and a slumping construction industry as he prepares to run the housing agency and related finance programs. Weaver said he will meet the trust placed in him and push for faster housing starts, noting current levels far below the needed 2.2 million per year.
