Hoffman has battled with the committee in four Jong and rough sessions in defense of ECA's multi- billlon dollar program. He was down for a return bout this afternoon. The EGA chief pulled out his ace in the hole yesterday. This report showing that a 1.000,000.000 cut in recovery spending actually will mean less purchase of American cotton, tobacco, wheat, butter lumber, and other commodities.

Senator Young said cut made will be small. He agreed that Hoffman's report would have a tendency to slow down the demands lor a large reduction. "We do have surplus food running out of our ears," Young said "And the reco'very program is one way to get rid of it." The committee sentiment ap peared to be that ECA will have to take another cut in the second year's it will not IK anywhere near the some senators suggest.

Bradley In speaking for the opposition were (Doc) Dean, himself a member of the Renl Estate Board, and Curtis J.

The work, be said, was without pay or publicity, neither of which he sought. For this work, he said, the council In office 10 years ago adopted a resolution naming htm an "unofficial city commissioner." After presenting his bill. Mr.

Simon asked the council for authority to develop Simon Avenue, In his residential subdivision on Missouri Street, at his own expense.

5) Removal of controls will allow landlords to "drop" undesirable tenants. 8) With decontrol, landlords and. tenants will be able to enter into leasts nnd other agreements on an optional and unrestricted basis 7) BlytheviUe Is no longer a defense area, a condition set up by the federal rent law as a basis for application of controls. 81 An "emergency" no longer exists and controls are no longer needed. Mr.

Douglas the main issue was that a shortage of rental housing no longer exists to the eaent thnt controls are needed. Several real estate men and landlords testified that the law of supply and demand apparently was again comm? into balance in the rental housing field. Home Building filer! Widespread home building activity In BlytheviUe in the past few years was cited as a reason for alleviating the shortage of rental property. Arguments against immediate decontrol brought out these points: 1) The opposition to government control of rent as socialistic is inconsistent as long as the same persons who favor decontrol also arfus for retention of government support prices for crops. 12) Unless a federal survey in determine the need for controls is made, there Is nn recourse once are lifted.

If the survey is made and federal housing expediter removes controls, they can be replaced if the need aftaln arises. Without a survey, (he council's action Ij final If Is approved by the governor and and controls are abolished for- evef.
