Waiting 237 Years for Full Payment in Greenbelt

Construction began over two years ago, creating a sizable housing complex for families earning $1,000 to $2,000 annually. Low rents, $18 to $41 monthly, totaling about $66,000 yearly above operating costs, fail to cover the cost, forcing the long payment horizon.

Property lien would cut pension rolls
Austin reports that Texas may require a lien on property held by pensioners to qualify for old age pensions. Orville S. Carpenter, former chief administrator of pension payments, suggested the idea to a Senate committee. He noted the pensioner total could rise from 85,000 to 120,000 and that a lien requirement might reduce rolls, though he offered no exact figures. Also cited is W J Whisenant, recovering after a spider bite, as Casco Mizzles gave blood earlier to a venom victim with a built up resistance built through prior exposure.
