ROY SUMMER, INC. “THE MAN’S SHOP” WE GIFT WRAP FREE AND DELIVER AMERICANA Cities to Duluth, Minnesota Earliest legends of the area around Duluth, Minnesota concern the Sioux Indians. Later came the Chippewa Indians, followed by French, British explorers, then the Americans. Radisson and Grosi- ellier, French fur trappers and explorers were in the region in 1660 and were probably the first white men to see the site of Duluth. Daniel de Greysolon Sieur du Lhut, French voyageur for whom the city was named, raised the French flag on the shores of Lake Su perior in 1679. Duluth was platted in 1856 and incorporated as a city in 1870 Duluth is fa hied for its excel lent climate. Summers are mild and refreshing, with cool winds from Lake Superior, the world’s largest body of fresh water. The 1950 U.S. Census lists the population of Duluth as 104,511. Agriculture is important in St. Louis County. Chief products are butter, eggs, poultry, hay, pota toes, fruit and vegetable crops. The Census of Agriculture lists 7,472 farms in the county. More than 60 per cent of the iron ore produced in the United States and 25 percent of world production is mined in northern Minnesota. Iron ore deposits, grain and dairy products and vast forest areas in sure not only a continuation of large tonnages for water and rail carriers but also the continuing industrial development of the re gion. Duluth and Superior are con nected by three swing type rail road bridges and two bridges for motor and pedestrian traffic, one a bascule bridge and the other a swing bridge with the longest swing span in the United States. Points of interest include the famed 26-mile Skyline Drive and Enger Tower, on Duluth’s high est point of land. DRY RUN . . .

New York Governor feller and Nikita Khrushchev met briefly during visit. Rockefeller admitted his possible candidacy Home Production May Decline NAHB Head Says Easier Credit Needed To Meet Nation T s Demand for Housing BY CARL T. MITNICK President, National Association of Home Builders (EDITOR’S NOTE: In this special message for National Home Week, Mr. Mitnick points out an important need facing the home building industry, as xcell as the nation’s prospective home owners.) Strange as it may seem, new Lome construction is not meet ing the hare- bone needs of the nation’s expanding population —even though house produc tion broke all records in the first six months of this year. Private housing starts from Jan. 1 through June 30 totaled 689,600 or a seasonaly adjusted annual rate of about 1,360,000. This is the highest production rate for any comparable time in our history. Carl T. Mitnick Yet, in terms of family forxpa- tion and the enormous growth in population, home building was standing still—if not falling be hind. In 1950, we were building new homes at the rate of 111 per 10,000 population. Today’s house production is only about 89 units per 10,000 persons. Industry Has Capacity The National Association of Home Builders, which has more than 40,000 members in more than 300 local associations throughout the country, is con vinced that the industry has the physical capacity as of this mo ment to increase home produc tion by at least 100,000 units. But if this is to be done, there must be an adequate supply of long term credit available at reason able rates. Yet it appears that just the op posite may be the case. The pro duction volume is in danger of declining sharply due to an in creasing tightness in the money markets. Unless this tendency* is checked, the decline will hit in full force by next spring. To expose the danger and do what it can to prevent the situ ation from developing is one of the immediate objectives of the NAHB, whose overall aim is to provide better houses, for all Americans who want 1 homes of, their own and can afford them. But our immediate concern i» with the volume of home build-' ing, which must be increased i» proportion to our population rise. As it is, we are doing abso lutely nothing to forestall a fur ther deterioration in our exist ing stock of houses. Decline Threatened If this is not done, our housing supply ultimately will confront us with two choices. Either we will suffer an outright decline in our physical standard of living or devote a disproportionate share of our available resources tn make up for deficiencies of the past. But this situation need not confront us if home buiic’ers und buyers are assured of an ade quate supply of credit at re??ou- abie rates.
