Truman advocated his I "I believe we should do some increase during the last Congress thing, at once, about high prices." but was blocked by the Kepubll- cans. I SOCIAL SECURITY: Truman "I believe Social Security should be extended to the large Erouns of people not now protected. I believe that the insurance bene fits should be increased by ap proximately 50 per cent." Dewey "We will overhaul the Social Security system for the unem ployed and the aged and go for- ward to extend its coverage and 'is :':, . -,..-:wwi-.:.. v.

HOUSING: Truman "I believe the Congress should provide aid for slum clearance and low-rent housing." Dewey "We will break ih.s loe 1am in housing so that decent houses may be provided tat reasonable cost for our peo ple." I Both statements head the same wav. The difference Is that Presi dent Truman specifically sup ported the Taft-Ellender-Wagner bill in full. In the housing bill I finally passed by the special ses i sion, slum clearance and low , rent housing sections were killed by the Republican Congress. This, I however, is not the complete housing story, isew lork states record In slum clearance and building of subsidized rental housing for low-Income families under Governor Dewey is above criticism.
