Once more has announcement of
the personnel of H.. O. Wilhelm's
committee to consider Omaha's
housing problem been postponed,
"We expect to announce names of
those who make up the committee
by Monday," said Robert H. Man
ley, commissioner of the Chamber
of Commerce.
"We want to make a careful se
lection and see that all interests are
properly represented. lhis com
mittee will not be a price-fixing com
mittee, but one to consider f the
housinar problem for Omaha.'! he
empnasizea.
Many Contracts Made.
Information brought out in ten
tative discussions of men who will
probably be included in the commit
tee is that contracts for erection of
between 1,100 and 1.300 houses have
already been made this spring, ac
cording to Mr. Maniey.
"This is an optimistic fact in con
ncction with the investigation be
cause these figures are 30 days in ex
cess of the usual number, of con'
tracts let at this time of the year,'
said Maniey.
Scant building was done in recent
years because of wartime restric
tions, but the outlook in future build
ing, if the price question is settled,
bids fair to exceed the amount done
in the past. i
