Commissioner i•ritenbas substantiated the comments of Commissioner Bogosian and felt it would be detrimental. Mrs A. T. LeFever was also present in opposition to the housing program. Commissioner Macdonald stated that he was surprised at the reactions received by the other Commissioners, since the Progressive Civic League in Gifford and other people who have comne5before the Board have not opposed it.
