The No. 1 Lobbyist
Like the boy who cried wolf, Mr.
Truman has cried “lobby” so often
that his anguished screams now fail
to cause quivegs of apprehension
among the citizenry.
His latest target is the “real estate
lobby,” which he says has launched
a deliberate and shocking campaign
of misstatements and misrepresenta
tions about his housing bill.
Of all lobbies which Mr. Truman
has singled out for wolf-cries, the
real estate lobby has been his fav
orite. It was the real estate opera
tors, remember, who fought the pres-
idnet’s proposal to continue nation
al rent controls. The proposal was
defeated and a compromise enacted
in its stead. None of the dire predic
tions which Mr. Truman said would
come to pass, if his proposal were
not enacted, has occurred. It begins
to look, now, as if the "lobby” and
not Mr. Truman was right about rent
controls.
Most people know that the biggest
lobby in Washington on the housing
bill is composed of bureaucrats who
want to administer the spending of
the $10,000,000,000 to $20,000,000,-
000 housing program.
Control of that amount of money
means control of thousands of poli
tical jobs, influence, prestige, gravy,
pap. As former Speaker Martin put
it, “the only lobby that has contact
ed me is the lobby that is trying
to put over the bill.”
Politics and public housing are in
separable, just as are politics aftd
public power. An investigation of
certain housing projects in Califor
nia shows that politicians were giv
en large apartments and houses for
little or no rent, in preference to
veterans and other citizens who were
willing to pay a fair rent and who
had been on waiting lists for years.
The enthusiasm of the politicians for
Mr. Truman’s housing measure is
understandable.
The opposition to the expenditure
of $10,000,000,000 to $20,000,000,000
in federal funds stems, we believe,
not principally from any organized
lobby, but from citizens who- are be
ginning to be alarmed about the pub
lic debt and the Truman program of
deficit spending.
The housing shortage is not so
severe as*!t was. Private individuals
are building their own homes, with
out government assistance. Within
a few years, the shortage will be
ended, providing the government
does not drive investment capital
out of the market with high taxes
and fettering restrictions.
As for Mr. Truman being “shocked
at the extraordinary propaganda
campaign” of th'e real estate men,
many people are shocked at the ex
traordinary propaganda campaign
of some public officials—particularly
the nation’s No. 1 public official,
whose utterances usually are front
page news. The News & Courier.
