Housing Yearbook, 1942 (Classic Reprint) by Coleman Woodbury PDF Summary

Book Description: Excerpt from Housing Yearbook, 1942 This volume is frankly an economy Yearbook. Unfortunately the only effective way to reduce costs in a publication of this kind is to cut things out; so we have left out this year the long section on state and local housing activity, the shorter account of Naho's doings, and the editors' annual summary. Our regret about the state and local section is lightened somewhat by our tentative plan to include it, possibly in revised form, every other year or so. Yearbook readers will thus be able to keep in direct touch with developing local programs, and the repetition that has crept unavoidably into this section in past Yearbooks will be less. This year seemed to be a good one to start skipping the section, both because many local authorities simply have been finishing up work under way and also because war housing problems are dealt with in considerable detail in other parts of the Yearbook. The story of Naho's principal activities has been running serially in Naho News and is also summarized at the Annual Meetings. The editors summary of the year would have been necessarily and to a very considerable extent a repetition of other parts of the Yearbook. While the 1942 Yearbook was still in the early stages of preparation, the President reorganized the federal housing agencies. This act affected the volume in three ways. We included a brief statement on the reorganization and the texts of the Executive Orders that brought it about. Further, we asked the writers of articles on federal housing programs during 1941 to extend their accounts to the time of the reorganization, February 24, 1942.Finally, we gave up plans for an inclusive directory of housing projects because the reorganized agencies could not be expected to undertake the considerable work that the directory would have entailed for them. The chief innovation of this Yearbook is the sizable article "Activities of National Unofficial Housing Agencies and Committees for 1941." Although we have included short statements on a few of these organizations in the past, this is the first time that they have been given much space. In one sense this record balances last year's summary of the organization and activities of citizen housing associations and councils. Should the Yearbook be continued, we hope to stress different types of housing agencies and programs each year, perhaps alternating articles on citizens' efforts with the reports on official state and local programs mentioned above.
