- Abstract
The article focuses on the U.S. legislative bills related to housing. It states that the housing construction industry has declined production since 1932, leading to shortage of housing in the U.S. It offers information on the legislative bill H.R. 4761, enacted as the U.S. Veterans' Emergency Housing Act of 1946, on May 22, 1946, which focuses on building material production. It discusses the aims, proposals and controversy over the legislative bill General Housing Bill, proposed by the U.S. Senators Robert A. Taft, Allen J. Ellender, and Robert F. Wagner, on November 14, 1945.
