The call is now being made for increased production in several phases of our program. and it behooves us to do what is necessary to assure the manufacture and delivery of all necessary supplies to our armed forces. It is worthy of note in this connection that in the construction of our various war plants practically all of the necessary funds have come from the Public Treasury. On the contrary. in the carrying out of the necessary wartime housing and facilities for the immigrant workers to make those plants operative. a very great part of the funds has come from private capital and through private enterprise. It must be borne in mind that the Lanham Act is a war emergency measure which is in no way intended to limit or restrict private enterprise in the fields in which it can operate advantageously under the existing war conditions. In terms of the total warhousing program. the reliance which has been placed )upon the initiative. capital resources. and .productive capacity of private enterprise to supply by far the larger part of the necessary war housing is evident.
