By FORBES RHUDE Canadian Press Business Editor

QUEBEC (CP)—There is still considerable scope for extending the provisions of national hous- ing legislation the housing com- mittee of the Canadian Construc- tion Association said Monday.

The report, prepared under the chairmanship of V. L. Leigh of Victoria and presented to the op- ening day’s session of the asso- ciation’s annual meeting, added:

» “The terms of the Canadian legislation are more stringent than the equivalent legislation in the United States, where down- payments and carrying charges are lower; mortgages can be ob- tained on existing houses; and mortgage interest and municipal taxes may be reduced for in- come tax purposes.

“If, as is hoped, additional mortgage funds become more readily available in 1958, it is strongly recommended that ser- ious consideration be given to adoption of such measures." The committee suggestedthat atoning bylaws be carefully scrut- inized to ensure that require- ments for such things as lot sizes and parkland are not un- reasonably high.

FRONTAGE A DETERRENT “A trend toward 80-foot mini- mum land-frontage provisions in new subdivisions by municipalit- ies is not uncommon," the com- mittee commented, “and is a ser-

ions deterrent to those with mod- est incomes in purchasing a home. ’

“If the trend is not ahalted, a great percentage of Canadian families may be ‘zoned - out’ of home ownership."

Reviewing 1957, the committee said that despite difficulties, fav- orable factors had won out by the end of the year, and housing com- _pletions rose to around 118,000 compared with a predicted total of 100,000. The large number of housing starts in the second half of the year and a predicted de- crease in competing demands for investment funds, gave promise of an increased housing program for 1958.

The report added:

“Increased interest in govern- ment. circles, the press and the public in general in the associa- tion’s plea that opportunities for home ownership be improved for those with annual incomes of less than 35,000 a year was gratify- ing. . . I

“The latest‘ available statistics show that in the second quarter of 1957 the average NHA loan was issued on a house costing $14,600 and to a person aged 35 with an income of over $5,800. .“The close of 1957 saw im- proved financing arrangements, NHA mortgage funds. earmarked for the ‘forgotten man,’ a carry- ‘over ‘of 70,000 units under con- struction and an easing of ‘tight

Industry

By ARCH MacKENZIE Canadian Press Staff Writer MONTREAL (CP)—The Cana-I dian poultry industry was warned bluntly Monday to avoid pressure for a higher egg support price. The existing one of 38 cents a. dozen wholesale—set in 1950- “may or may not be an incentive price,” Prof. J. R. Cavers of the Ontario Agricultural C o l 1 e g e, Guelph, told a Canadian Federa- tion of Agriculture luncheon.

But in 1957 the floor price was “no longer a sufficient deterrent” to over-production and an egg glut had lasted up to seven months in some areas.

Prof. Cavers, head of the col- lege department of poultry hus- bandry, said in his view a higher floor price would be a “disserv-' ice” to the industry. Purchases of egg-laying stock had not been cut back with the result that fresh egg supplies prevented sales of surplus stocks acquired under the federal plan inaugurated in 1950' FLEXIBLE FLOOR PRICE ‘
