Cronin, Attorney TUGWELL TOWN It was a general assumption in the Horse and Buggy days that government in business meant waste and extravagance, higher costs and more burden for the tax payers. The New Deal seems to have abolished this old belief along with a great many others.. But an examination of some of the records would seem to indicate that it takes more than a new statute or pro nouncement by the Brain Trust to alter the natural laws of the uni verse. One may well take the ex ample of the Resettlement Admin istration as an illustration. One of its pet projects is located in Mary land between Washington, D. C., and Baltimore but closer to the capitol city. According to Senator Harry F. Byrd, chairman of the Senate Reorganization committee, who has been studying the question of housing projects for sometime, statesmen now sojourning at the National capitol should visit this nearby project which has been called “Tugwell Town,” and ought to stand as a monument to the molasses magnate. The houses at “Tugwell Town” were erected with the idea that they are to be occupied by people who work in Washington but whose salaries are so modest they are un able to pay the high Washington rent. But Senator Byrd says that an examination of the construction figures show that the project com prises 880 units and that the cost per unit will be $16,182 and maybe more. In his statement about the resettlement projects, released the other day the Virginia statesman said: “When the true facts are known of the sinful and absurd waste in the Resettlement Administration’s homestead projects throut the country, the condition existing will approach a national scandal.” Speaking of what is popularly known as “Tugwell Town” the Sen ator continued: “This is not a farming project. It is for city workers, yet the gov ernment purchased 12,345 acres of land for $1,119, 937.79—a cost of $90.72 per acre, an average of more than 14 acres per home. At Tug well Town, $465,603.50 was spent for landscaping; $120,819.81 for surveys and $198,850.17 for land preparation. For administrative planning and deeds of conveyance nearly half a million dollars were spent, and for “management,” $50,376.29; for land improvement and conservation, $9,332,748.86; for inspection, $34,917.22, and for home furnishings, $5,909.85.” Official figures for the Jersey homestead project at Highstown, he said, disclose a cost of $20,163 per unit for each of 200 units, a total of more than $4,000,000 while —listen to this—the administra tive or overhead cost of the project was about a million and a half dol lars or forty per cent of the total expenditure. One may wonder how the lower paid employees of the government at Washington, who cannot afford to pay apartment house rent, are going to get by in housing units costing somewhat like $16,000. If the project were to pay expenses this would mean a rental of more than $100 per month. But it is not expected by the “reformers” of course that the project will pay ex penses. They are merely experi menting with the government’s money. The difference in what the tenants pay and what it costs to operate the project will come out of the pockets of the taxpayers. BRIEFLY STATED Miss Mary Morris of Norfolk, was a week-end guest at the home of Mr. and Mrs. F. M. Meyer.
