not give him the grant be
cause he has insufficient in­
come and that he could not
see how he bought the house.
He would not put the grant
refusal in writing.
Mr. Gant wonders why the
house that he purchased as
rehabilitated does not pass
city code.
The city code violations
are:
1) light fixtures lack
control switches; 2) no hand
rail on stair to finished attic;
3) not specified height in
finished attic: 4) two sup
ports in the cellar are inade­
quate;
5) cellar stairway
does not have enough clear
ance and handrails are not
proper;
6) roofing and
sheathing on the garage is
not adequate.
Violations of the K-V-S
Neighborhood Development
Program include:
1) win­
dows needed for ventilation
lack ease of operation;
2)
kitchen sink is worn and
chipped; 3) roof excessively
worn; 4) garage is blighted;
and 5) the kitchen floor in
the exterior area is worn.
Gant reported that when
he asked the H ID office
about the code violations.
George Duke told him HUD
can do only a limited amount
of work.
Vern Smith told the Ob­
server that he is not at
liberty to discuss the reason
for Mr. Gants denial since it
is privileged information that
has to do with his personal
situation. He also said that
he could not put the denial in
writing to Mr. Gant because
putting anything in writing
would place him a position of
possible libel.
He said an
applicant is not entitled to a
written statement of denial,
but that he had explained
the matter to Mr. Gant.
Persons who are dissatis­
fied with the work done
through the federal housing
projects are invited to con

inspiring ils employees lo greater

Workmen's compensation laws
generally cover accidents lhal oc­
cur in the course of employment
As a rule, courts have included
any recreational activities lhal
are closely connected with the
job.
This is especially true when
die company plays an active role
in the event.
Thus, in a case arising out of
a company picnic, the court
granted compensation for an ac­
cident largely because of the par­
ticipation of Ihe company presi­
dent. It seems he would use these
occasions jo present special prizes
lo employees and to give them
pep talks about “our one hig
fam ily."
Stdl, not every recreational oc­
casion is covered In another
picnic case, a woman employee
was hurt during a foot race. But
when she sought compensation,
the company pointed out
I ) that it paid only part of
the cost of the picnic:
2) that Ihe picnic was held
on a non-working day, away
from Ihe company premises,
with no pressure on anyone to
attend; and
3) that the company had noth­
ing lo do with the arrangements
I tic court devilled it would be
stretching language to call the
woman's injury "an incident of
her employment." Result: no
compensation.
