THOSE PINKS AGAIN
A year ago thousand * of Amarilloans und residents
of the Panhandle stood in the rain and cheered President
Roosevelt. if
Last' week several hundred members of the National
Youth Congress stood in the rain, and some of them booed
President Roosevelt.
It's high time that we quit excusing the puerille,
out-and-out Communistic antics of the National Youth
Congress. There's little doubt in the minds of most of
us that these misguided, adolescent youths, male and
female alike, are governed by and subscribe to the tenets
of the Communist Party with its outright formula of
anarchy and revolution.
They claim to represent four and a half million
youths of the United States-—a claim that is open to
serious argument. They parade in Washington with catchy
banners, asking this and that—always asking.
They have yet to give—•give their faith and support
to the government of this country. They have yet to
avow their belief in the justice and God-given freedom
I of the C onstitution. They have yet to offer their services
to this nation as it struggles on the comeback trail from
its worst depression.
they don't ¡give. They'd rather march and mouth
-sounding, dangerous phraseB that are stuck into
died pates by paid tools of Joseph Stalin.
Well, this is a free country, and people are privileged
to think as they care to; They're guaranteed the right,
of free ieligioua and political beliefs.

really nothing more Ihan a hitherto unexplored angle
of the general housing situation—one that had to pop
up sooner of later.
Ever since the current administration placed an em-
phasis on housing and local authorities became housing
conscious, the tendency has been to eliminate slums. Pro-
jects were either built far on the outskirts of a city or
were concentrated in a community's most desolate resi-
dential areas. Tittle attention has thus far been paid to
intermediate housing projects—colonies designed for
wage-earners in the middle-income groups.
Practically no concern had been registered over still
another problem—until the FHA and Chicago started
out to do something about it. That was the problem of
preventing residential areas from becoming blighted in
the future.
The blighted area, as the FHA sees it, is a section
of the city not yet a slum but destined to become one.
It is a residential area frequently brought about by mush-
room growth or "booms" of one sort or another. If left
to its own devices, it will rapidly deteriorate into a definite
slum area.
About such areas the FHA intends to do something
shortly. Administrator Stewart McDonald announced re-
cently that a mortgage insurance program to rehabilitate
"blighted" regions would soon be available. Certain
definite regulations are being prescribed to insure effec-
tive rehabilitation.
>ln Chicago, a survey has been launched to inquire
into the possibilities of W'oodlawn. a neighborhood which
faces the bleak future of becoming a community blight
uhlesa something is done. Detailed examination of all
possibilities will be undertaken by experts who will make
recommendations concerning methods of saving this
district from turning into an eventual slum
Among the matters to be considered will be parking
facilities, transportation, recreation and zoning. Civic-
organizations are co-operating in the study as are prop-
erty owners in the area affected.
Along with present honsing projects must eventually
be dfcveltooed a widespread program of this kind. It is
not possible to transplant an entire city. Residents can't
forever be moved farther and farther ftofcp the country
Effort* must be made to save those homes which are still
inhabitable from being suddenly engulfed in a blighted
neighborhood.
Slams can never be eliminated unless some system
i be devised that will eliminate slum tendencies when
y tfiispt appear. Cities muat be carefully zoned, recrea-
te trrovided for, transnortation must be arranged
expansion must be carefully planned.

harboring slums if an intelligent program,
