The lower these costs are, the president said, the bettor it will be for the buyer and renter of homes. The entire undertaking, the president emphasised, Is yet very much in the study stage, It has gone far enough, however, to show that very little legislation will be needed, he said.

Prepares Message -for Opening Con iress Monday. , 'WASHINGTON. Nov. 12 (AP) President Roosevelt said today his message to congress would be sent to the capitol on Monday, opening day of the special session. He told reporters he had not finished writing it and therefore could not say whether he would enlarge on the legislative pro gram he already has outlined. This includes surplus crop con trol, wage and lour, government reorganization and regional plan ning legislation. Administration leaders were talking of limiting the scope of the wage-hour bill to "sub normal" industries, in which em ployes receive less pay and work longer than they say is "decent." Changes Talked Labor leaders frequently have classed parts of the textile, gar ment and cannery industries as examples. Two other major changes in the bill also were reported to be under discussion. The first ,would eliminate the proposed board for fixing min imum wages and maximum hours, and would substitute an admin istrator in the labor department. The second would give to joint committees representing labor and industry the power to fix the wage and hour schedules within limits prescribed by law. These committees could hold hearings and subpoena witnesses and documents after the admin istrator determined what indus tries were "subnormal." Administration officials were said to believe these three changes would answer the Amer ican Federation of Labor's prin cipal objections to the present bill.
