AMERICANS SPEND
TOO MUCH IN RENT
F. R. IS
President Orders Housing
Experts to Seek Means of
Cutting Down Shelter
Cost Europe Contrasted
WASHINGTON. July 18. (AP)
President Roosevelt says he Is con
nnced Americans pay too much of
their money to landlords.
He has ordered the government's
housing experts to seek a means of
cutting down rents, declaring some
families spent half their Income for
shelter.
Mr. Roosevelt talked with represen
tatives of nine federal agencies yea
teday. especially concerning extension
of the limited dividend corporation
system.
This system, he told his press con
ference, might help by malting pos
sible the financing of homes and
apartments for rent.
Mr. Roosevelt recalled that Ameri
can families used to make It a rule
to spend no more than 30 percent
of their Income for rent, but now
some have to pay 60 percent.
He contrasted this with average
rental expenditures In moat of Eur
ope of an average of 15 percent.
Tn the 61 low rent housing projects
of the public works administration,
tenants are restricted to those whose
income Is not more than flye times
the rental. This follows the old 30
percent practice.
The senate labor committee has
been considering the bill of Senator
Waner (D.. N. Y.) to provide a broad
low cost housing program.
