It has been done else- where. We don't like to mention it again, but it is painfully clear that all of this housing the stop-gap trailers and the row-housing yet to be finished comes tardily into a situation that has been short for many months. That would justify an early relaxation of restrictions if the housing does not fill up. Relaxation would encourage the construction of the privately-financed units, none of which has been started as yet. $'.& 4 -4 1!"! ii' i J-Sft'-r-'V Member, Aesoelated Preee Member Audit Bureau Clrculauon Today's Roundup By MALCOLM EPLEY WO one gasped with surprise when the census v.,,i rilsrlosed that vacant family hous- ;- ing in Klamath. Falls is virtually nil, but the iv survey mace ny ne ouiwm at the request of the national housing agency, serves good purpose in establishing of fie ": ially the short housing situa tion here. Now,, the interesting thing is the lack of immediate re sponse to the opening of the "stop -gap" trailer houses. Fifty-five -. of these trailers i were made available few days ago to in-migrant essen tial workers, but only two or EPLEY three have been actually occupied. The row housing being constructed by the government agency to help relieve the situation here is not yet ready ,for occupancy. Qualified occupants generally may not have realized that the trailers are available, and additional . publicity may bring more renters Warm weather may make the trailers seem un desirable to potential renters, although that wouldn't deter the family in desperate need of housing. .' Restrictions IT IS also possible that the number of qualified families here is drastically reduced by the restrictions set up for occupancy of- this war housing. That there is a shortage of housing is undoubted, as the survey shows a percentage of vacancy which is regarded in government , circles as critically low. But it is possible (we can almost , say probable) that under the special occupancy restrictions, the government housing does not fit the need of the community. We will know more about that after a few weeks of trial. This war housing is now available to in migrant essential workers people who come here to work for lumber companies, the rail roads, as registered nurses, or as civilian employes of the Marine Barracks or the air station. Essential workers already occupying . other housing here can move into- the war housing only if they are evicted, or their rent Is raised beyond their capacity to pay, or they can show the place they occupy is sub-standard. In-migrant construction workers cannot occupy the war housing unless they can prove they have come here as. permanent residents, or unless a member of the family gets an "essen tial" job. i ; a a Can't Move In. IT WILL be seen from these restrictions that there are many people here, seeking housing, who can't take advantage of the war housing being made available. ' For instance, we know a military man who has. his wife and family here with him. They are occupying two cabins in an auto court, paying considerably over $100 a month. They cannot find other housing here, and they cannot .move into any of the war housing accommoda- tions unle6S the wife should go to work for the railroads, lumber companies, or the military installations. . She can't do that because she must take care of the children. Military men with families here cannot : occupy the housing unless some member of : the family gets an essential job. Relaxation Possible THIS, as we have said, adds up to tha possi bility that the housing construction with its accompanying occupancy restrictions is not the real solution to the problem here. As soon as this becomes convincingly evident to the gov eminent authorities, it is presumed they will l.u inaailll mi jEV News Behind ihe News By PAUL MALLON WASHINGTON, July 35 It was an interest ing crowd of democratic office holders who trooped back from Chicago. The look on their faces could raise a smile from anyone. Not that any seemed especially disgusted or elated. They just persist ently treated their handwork as a matter of course (appar ently also as did Mr. Roose velt who went off to the Pa cific coast.) The normally crusty Interior Secretary Ickes for instance hid his chagrin over the defeat of Mr. Wallace by saying: "We nom inated the second best man." MALLON I have never seen politicos less inspired or less enthusiastic. . What they did at Chicago in the last analysis was to form a purely practical political working arrangement for the campaign between the city bosses on the one hand and the leftleaners, even CIO on the other. Senator Truman will bring into the campaign a background of sup port from both of these elements including the old Pendergrast machine in Missouri. Na tional Chairman Hannegan has his own machine in St. Louis. Chicago's Mayor Ed Kelley, who was probably the convention's most important . maninulator. now has the most complete ma chine in the country. He directs everything there now, although some insiders say the ' apparatus has really become too big and is showing some signs of cracking.. These, to gether with Ed Flynn and Hague from both sides of the Hudson ran the convention. Personally Unpopular? NOW they did not kick Mr. Wallace out because he is a radical. He had just become personally unpopular and they wanted to win. If the New Dealers had a more power ful candidate than Wallace, I do not believe Truman would have received the nomination. The bosses simply got their political working arrangement with labor with their own man . instead of taking the CIO choice. Frankly then they improved their chances of a November victory. With similar machine practicalism ' they put down the embarrassing negro issue and the Texas-South Carolina trouble with all possible vagueness, crowding the matter into the background. a Battle Yet to Be Won A ILL this arrangement win the election? W I do not believe the average democratic , leader here is confident. The battle is yet to be won. A city-CIO combination for instance is actually a small minority of the country. It . leaves the opportunity open for Dewey to organize a middle ground majority around -the farmers, right wing labor, middle class. If Roosevelt is to win, it must be accomplished by the force of war developments, peace nego tiations or by his personality. So while I would say the party helped its chances by relinquishing Mr. Wallace, none of the power exhibited . at Chicago was enough to win m i itself. This year with the war likely to break be fore election, with the peace unsettled, it is probable people may take the election more as a matter of course. Extremely light votes have appeared already in the primaries. In Idaho, at the height of the European invasion, candidates got no crowds and the voters could not be induced to come from farms and war factories and register. .In North Dakota, the vote was light despite the warm senatorial contest. In Maryland, democratic Senator Tyd ings found unusually little applause given to a Roosevelt speaker at a Roosevelt pep rally and candidate Senator Pat McCarran reports people are not interested in talking politics. The country may be in the same peculiar mood as the democratic politicians.
