I 11 1 ihMlll.TlliW anything but the statistics of plans and surveys. Charles Sheets, chief of the state highway department's division of land acquisition, and James P. Crawford, the department's relocation supervisor, deny this suggestion of inexperience. They argue that the department got sufficient experience with the social problems of urban highway programs through projects in Madison, Gary, South Bend and Terre Haute. CI n-i (g (9X0) LJ NONE OF these, however, approach the scope and scale of the Inner Loop project.

Wake advises that the highway department with a primary concern for the costs of projects, prefers to lay its SOME HAVE no cars and must live in certain neighborhoods where they are near their jobs. Some cannot afford the rising costs of living in a slum. Sometimes these costs are amazingly high: $40 a month for a two-room apartment at the rear of 724 Indiana Avenue, $55 for a five-room house without a furnace at 541 North California Street. The point to this is that the problem is not solved simply because, there happen to be 2,500 rental vacancies and 2,500 families in the rental market. The families and the vacancies must be matched, almost on an individual basis.

The two-room apartment at 724 Indiana Avenue is vacant, but this does not mean very much for that family of eight which has been looking for a place free of pests and rodents. THERE IS a vacancy at 541 North California Street, but this house without a furnace cannot help the mother with if routes over the least expensive available land. The planned route for 1-65 does curve around Golden Hill and then straighten out through some of the city's poorer neighborhoods. WAKE OBSERVES that Golden Hill is white and that these neighborhoods are Negro.

THE INNER Loop runs through several of the city's poorest neighborhoods, white and Negro, and for better or for worse affects them all in much the same way. But the political organization of the Negro neighborhoods is more effective and certainly more vocal. The result is a controversy that seems more racial than it actually is.

The real confrontation is not between the races but between the poor and the bureaucracy. Arthur G. Wake, Indianapolis city traffic engineer and a former member of the state highway department staff, said that this happened part- ly because the State High-' way Department is not used to the sort of problems created by an Inner Loop. IT IS NOT accustomed to organized backtalk from the citizens and it is not used to answering public protest with of refusing Federal aid for see all the games. Here is a truly portable portable!

The basis of this policy in housing was a belief that the nrivate construction industry could and would act to meet housing problems in Indian- anolis.
