Denver Colo, i Housing Authority today told the National Council of Jew- h Women that 9 million sub standard homes presently were occupied in the United States much to the shame of this dem ocracy. Good housing for all Ameri cans is not the cure lor an oi our domestic social in, ne saia. It does, however, mark an ex cellent point from which to start." Johnson, in a speech prepared for delivery to the 800 delegates attending the five - day biennial convention which this year marks i be group's B"th anniversary, said lhat every service organization in a community must be brought to bear to get rid of slums. The cancer of slums is grow ing in almost every American city oday. although the disease was diagnosed in the mid-30s as one requiring national action." Johnson said most American cities seemed indiflerent or he hind the times in their attitudes toward slums. But he added: "To he sure, some American cities are doing a magnificient job in meas uring up lo their responsibilities to the full extent of their financial ability. "New Haven. Newark. New York. Philadelphia. Norfolk. Nash ville. St. Louis. Cleveland and Sacramento, Calif., are typical of 'hose that recognize their local problems." Timber Hike Plea Issued CORVALLIS. Ore. (APi-An as sistant U.S. Secretary of Agricul ture says the nation must double its saw-timber growth and triple its soltwood saw timber growth in the next 50 years. E. L. Peterson also urged a new concept of "creative forest ry" in a speech Saturday before some (WO foresters at the annual Oregon State College forestry banquet. It marked the close of the two-day Oregon Centennial conference on forestry. It will be the kind of forestry. he said, "which surveys and measures the place of wood and its products in our nation's life. and then proceeds to provide the kinds of forests from which the economic stature of wood may be maintained in proportion to the growth of the country." He said forests in the nation must be geared to meet the needs of a population growing twice as fast today as it was SO years ago.

The governor Sunday challenged a federal concensus report showing California with the highest per capita state and local tax load in the nation. "Misleading." said Brown, and he whipped out his own statistics. California ranks 27th among the states in the amount of state taxes per $1,000 of personal income, he said, and 17th in the combined amount of state and local taxes. "Tax burden figures are most significant in relation to personal income," Brown said. In his statement. Brown made a soft pitch for the 256 million dollar tax increase he has pro posed to wipe out the state deficit and balance the 1959-60 budget. "Wt are all unhappy (hat taxes are as high as they are." he said, "but we must remember that these revenues pay for services that lhe people of our state de mand and get."
