PAGE T\VELVE CHEAP HOUSING PLAN URGED ON HOUSE OF COMMONS AS CURE FOR UNEMPLOYMENT J..iberal · Member Would Erect Wooden Homes at $15 Monthly to Aid Lumber Industry and Re- duce Relief Roles Ottawa, April 29.-Proposal that the Government enact a "Work- man's Housing Actn under which municipalities could borrow at 3 per cent from the Federal Treasury for local housing proJects. ...., made In lhe House of Commons last night by C. B. Howard <Lib., Sherbrooke>. Be was spealting,ln continuation of debate on We Relief Bill. The sugges•lon envisaged a .scheme under which a municipality \1/ould borrow from the Federal Treasury at 3 per cent, bulld work- men's houses at a maximum cost of $3,000 and seli them on monthly payments. Workmen In the $18 to $30 a week class would be benefited, Mr. How- ard said. It would be possible to build comior\able wooden houses . on concrete foWldaUons which could be c:an1ed as to Interest, taxes and principal payments for $15 a month for a $3,000 property, and be paid for in twenty years. The mu- nicipality would charge 3% per cent interest and thus have '4 of 1 per cent to cover adminlstraUon and supervision. Stlmula&e L'tllllber lllcbuU7 Stimulation of the lumber Indus- try would go a long way towara solving the unemployment prob- lem, Mr. Howard said. AlreadY lumber and · pulp industries were the creeteBt cmploJera ol labor In the Dom1n1oo. The DolniDion Bouaial Act had 3ernod a &ood purpoae, but because MARKS -THEATRE OSIIAWA. of the requirement that the pros- pective home owner must pro'Vlde 20 per cent. of the total, it wss not avallable to the class of people needing it most. It was not economic for a man to spend more than 25 per cent of his income on · housing, Mr. Howard Satd, but under the scheme proposed a man eamtng only $18 a week could have hls own home. Spealtlni: of bls experience in Sherbroolte, Mr. Howard said It bad been proved there by actual experiment that such a scheme was worltable. Tax Exemption Suua&ecl He had been liven to understand by Sherbroote officials that If hls suggestion were adopted that city would grant .nve years' tax ex- emption because the scheme would take c:aie of the unemployed and benefit the whole community . But even If tax exemption was granted !or a number of years, :r.tr. Howard said he would have taxes collected yearly from the start ani! placed il) a res'enoe as credit against future charges. Slum clearance bhould be started immediately, continued Mr. How- ard. In the Clt,y or Sherbroolte there were, perhaps, 100 homes un- fit for human habitation and th!s condition extended right across the country. Mr. Howard suggested tearing down the slums and rebuilding ac- cordlng to Government-appro'\ed plans. He would subsidize the own- er ol the property 50 per cent ·or the difference between the munlc1- pal assessment of the old ·building and the co:st of the new, providing · there was no rental Increase for a period of three or five years.
