Council of Jewish Women Sponsors
Movement to Ease Housing Shortage

--

-wr7Ar,

WILSON WYATT AND MRS. JOSEPH M. WELT

Full cooperation of labor and
industry to alleviate the grave
housing shortage was urged by
Mrs. Joseph M. Welt, of Detroit,
president of the National Coun-
cil of Jewish Women, before the
Housing Session of the Confer-
ence on Unfinished Business in
Social Legislation, meeting rec-
ently in Washington.
Mrs. Welt, who presided at the
Housing Session, called for the
same cooperation that w a s
achieved during the war to com-
bat the "bad health, delinquency,
and inadequate family life which
critically crowded housing gen-
erates."

Wilson Wyatt, Federal Housing
Expeditor, who was introduced
by Mrs. Welt, pledged continuing
efforts of the agencies under his
control to alleviate as far as pos-
sible the seriousness of the hous-
ing situation.
The National Council of Jewish
Women, a sponsoring organiza-
tion of the Conference, has been
vigorously advocating an ade-
quate federal housing program
since 1911. Currently, Council is
urging support for the Wagner-
Ellender-Taft bill and the Pat-
man bill.

Work for and give liberally to
the Allied Jewish Campaign.
