Senator Mitchell (D., Wash.), said today construction of a half billion dollar supersonic research center In the Pacific Northwest Is nearer realization as a result of a report of the Army Air forces. In presenting to the Senate a report by his special National llefense Committee on aircraft, Mitchell included a report of the Army Air Forces on a proposal to create as air engineering de velopment center. This, he said, indicated that requirements for the center could be met only in the Grand Coulee area of Wash ington. The report said the Army had formulated preliminary plans for construction of such a center which would consist of five wind tunnels, an electronics laboratory and other necessary research sec tions. It said the cost would be ssno,ooo,noo. Trie air corps said the project would require "availability of enormous power, large amounts or water and large land arms. - rl SAW DUST 16" MILL WOOD Prompt Delivery DENN-GERRETSEN CO.

V-l ft mi : I Black Market, Local Building Codes Top Barriers Faced by Veterans' Housing Program By PETER EDSON NEA Washington Correspondent WASHINGTON Main problems confronting Wilson W. Wyatt's National Housing Agency In putting over Its veterans' housing pro gram are these: First, to lick the black market in building materials. Second, to prevent misuse of priorities granted on building materials Intended for essential construction. Third, to define the $400,000,000 premium payment plan and prepare orders governing how and to whom these subsidies will be paid. Fourth, to issue regulations and put into ef fect the plan for a guaranteed market on new materials. Fifth, to modernize old building codes so as to permit the use of new con struction methods and materials. Sixth, to recruit and train enough skilled building labor. With all the demand there Is for higher priced housing and commercial structures, there is tremendous pressure to divert building materials away from the low-cost veterans' housing. That is responsible for most of the black market. Over and over the story is told of builders starting a house, then not being able to find furnace or bathtub to complete it. In the search for missing parts, the builder has to be held up on black market. This is principally OPA's prob lem and its compliance section has not been too successful in licking it. OPA's building and con struction m-ice division has grant ed over 100 price increases to en courage production of scarce building materials, get supply closer to demand and so eliminate the need for bootlegging. If OPA is seriously crippled by new price control extension laws now before Congress, the black market in building materials will get worse. Critical Materials Short There are now 18 critically short building materials on which HH (housing) priorities assis tance is given by local offices of the Federal Housing Administra tion. Priorities assistance is giv en to channel these scarce ma terials into low-cost housing un der the vets' program. These are houses and apartments of which approximately half will sell for s i.OOO or less or rent for $60 a month or less. This priorities assistance has been granted for 500,000 new units and 60,000 existin" units be ing converted and modernized. There is a certain amount of in flation in these authorizations be cause there are not enough ma terials to complete all units start ed. The rate of issuing priorities assistance is tnerefore being cut down in June. About 12 of the 18 scarce ma terials will probably be declared eligible for premium payment as sistance, or subsidies. In simple terms, the idea is to pay a bonus for extra production of Items in short supply. Mecnanics of how the $100,000,000 incentive money will be paid out will be announc ed shortly. Local Codes Are Handicap Housing Exoeditcr Wyatt Is ex ceedingly optimistic about the miat-Antoprl market Dlan for new building materials. Nearly 100 new products are already under test. Those approved will be giv IT'S SOLD When You List With IValley Real Estate 1 M Lobby of Grand Hojel 5 Phone 868 WANTED Poultry, Eggs, Turkeys also Dry Chirum Bark Highest Cash Prices Douglas County Poultry Phone 374 Oak & Spruce Sts.

A. certificate and up to 90 per cent of their sales guar anteed, just to put them in busi ness and get them into produc tion. The government hopes to re cover nearly all of its advance for these guarantees. The big catch here is that too many building codes may not per mit use of these new materials. Revision of local buildino- codes is probably the most backward phase of the whole emergenc housing program. Further restrictions on the use of new materials are written into the veterans housing law. New materials must avoid "adverse effects upon established busi ness." Further, the number of pre fabricated houses must be held oelow 200,000 units. That would mean 2,500,000 conventional type structures to be started by the end of 1948. Starts Not Completion The fact that over 500,000 au thorizations were granted before the new veterans' housing bill was passed augurs well for achieving Wyatt's goal of 1,200, 000 units started in 1946. The im portant thing to note is that this is starts not completions. Mate rials shortages may delay many completions. Six months from now and for all of 1947 the principal difficulty with the housing program may be not so much a shortage of ma terials as a shortage of skilled construction labor. Fifteen hun dred local management-labor committees are working to in crease apprentice training, but the need Is to triple the on and off-site construction' force to per haps six million workers in 1947.

Plans for the construction of a new research and engineering center to cost an estimated $50,000,000 were announced this week by Henry Ford II, president of the Ford Motor Company. Young Ford said the center, to be located on a 500-acre tract in nearby Dearborn, not far from the present Ford engineering laboratory, will consist of a pri mary group of eight buildings, grouped around an artificial lake 800 feet long and 350 feet wide. The building will be of modern design featuring steel and con crete construction and limestone facing. At the same time, Ford said his company plans to reopen its 14 assembly plants throughout the country on June 24. The manu facturing plants, he said, will open a week earlier. Ford said that the company still is losing money on every car it produces. He would not esti mate the per car loss, asserting that the amount depended largely upon the volume of production. He said, however, that labor pro ductivity still is about 34 per cent below the level of 1941. Ford declined to predict pos sible production volume for the remainder of 1946 but reiterated that the company has no plans to introduce its 1947 models until sometime during the first six months of next year."
