Congress Works On Housing Bill
The House went to work today on a big recession-geared housing bill aimed at stimulating the construction of 200,000 new homes and providing employment for 500,000 men.
(Compiled from United Press)
The Senate passed the $1,850,000,000 measure last night and House sources said that there is a 50-50 chance that the $4/4 per cent loan rate would still stand when the bill went to the White House.
The Administration had requested that the present $ 4^{1 / 2} $ per cent rate be hiked to 5 per cent to bring GI loans more in line with FHA insured mortgages.
Senate Democratic leader Lyndon Johnson (Tex.) called the bill "one of the most important" the Senate could pass to combat the business slump. He said it could result in jobs for more than 10 per cent of the 5,200,000 now listed as unemployed.
In another anti-recession move, farm belt Senators today confidently predicted the passage of a farm price and acreage freeze. Senate debate on the measure begins today.
The freeze bill would order the administration to hold virtually all price supports and acreage allotments at not less than the 1957 levy

Wrong Tax Cuts
"The tax cuts will be the wrong kind. They should be given to the lower income groups. What we will get will be cuts in all groups—upper and lower."
"The upper groups will have no desire to spend it," he said. "They will save it. The lower income groups will use it to pay off their debts."
"The tax cuts made will probably be inadequate to revive the economy to our full employment level."
He said no great measures would be taken for probably another month because the administration will want to check March unemployment figures to see if an upturn is indicated.
