He cited the need for considering the construction of new schools, sewers, water supply and other municipal services and the effect of public housing on surrounding property values.

He added that the common criterion for site selection was the cost and availability of land. "In how many housing projects built to date," he said, "has any consideration been given to a suitable density pattern for the entire community? "I AM OPPOSED to public housing on a permanent basis," Blucher said, "because I consider it a subsidy to those industries which fail to pay a suitable wage, making it impossible for their employes to buy private housing. "But, until the bottom wage has been pushed up to a level which will permit people to buy houses in the open market, I am going to. be temporarily in favor of public housing." Blucher insisted that the names "public" and "private" housing are misnomers. "When weuse the term 'public' housing, we refer generally to the Federally subsidized housing program.

When the Federal Government guarantees 95 per cent of the cost of housing, we call that private enterprise." Gov.
