All superintendents mid key pro ject men are In constant touch through an efficient communica tion system which Includes eight hort-wave channels. Housing for workers has betrn a major headache. Based on previ oua experience, AF.C and du Pont algned a contract with private flrma to build barracks and set up trailer cempa, and guaranteed to pay the difference In rent If they were not filled. Approximately 3000 of the 4WXI barracks rooms are empty. The trallera are full. However, a fed eral rent board ordered trailer rent cut from 3.60 per month to IM) and rent per week for double bar racks rooms cut from lie to tlO. An appeal has shown compara ble housing In the area to be more expensive. The average worker mora than 1100 a week. If the appeal la denied and the bar racks stay as empty as they are. the total bill lor sunaiaiauiK u workers' rent will be .! 12.000.

The alle was selected for the ample, mineral-free water lupply of the Savannah River and because there was a lot of land with few people on It, located near much larger centers of population. IG BARRACKS were built along with trailer campi to housa conitruction workeri, but only 1 500 of the 4S00 roomi are rented. Contractor lubtidiiet renti for the empty barracks. are Included.

Trumble Blake, the key du Pont engineer, says: "We are right now on the time schedule we promised Uie AEC at the start of construction."
