Canadian Press Staff Writer TORONTO {CP Sows pay- ment of $1,000 and mon - ments of $33.20 would buy a $i. 000 home under a CCF govern- ment, M. J. Coldwell, the party's 23tioanl leader, sald Wednesday night. Speaking at a papty meeting in Greenwood Park, Mr. Coldwell said a CCF government would also set up a special fund which would make loans at two-per-cent inter- est. Repayment would be over 30 years instead of 20. For those who could not afford that, subsidy funds would be intro- duced to make possible a sharp reduction in present high rents. Mr. Coldwell said Liberals had never implemented a housing program to meet the needs of the Canadian people, estimated that tl and now fit is he country was short of between 500,000 and 700, 000 homes. He accused the government of being willing to allow private lend- ers to make what they could out of the acute shortage. The agency controlling house building, Central Mortgage and Housing Corporation, was operating on behalf of lending organizations. riginal plans for the meeting, attended . by some 550 persons, called for a pire pipe band to pipe Mr. Coldwell onto the platform. But in a press conferenee earlier in the day the CCF leader de- nounced "the trend toward circus tactics" in Canadian election cam- paigns as a reflection of the "politi- cal hysteria" of elections in the Uni States. - 80 the band finished its perform- ance before Mr. Coldwell's arrival and he ascended the platform with- out musical accompaniment.
