�Subpart 8 -,-C'QRd\Jct and Responsibil.,i_ties of Employees
§ ~35- 201' Basic'principle.
(a) Each e'i'nployee must realize that
the --Government's basic and controlling
purpose in employing him is the public
interest, rather than his private or personal interest, and that he can never
have a right of tenure that transcends
the public good. He can properly be a
Government employee only as long as it
remains in the public ,interest for him
to be one. Public trust and confidence
in the integrity of the Government are
para.mount.
(b) (1) This basic principle applies
with special force and effect in the Department of Housing and Urban Development, which deals directly with important segments of the public, and whose
success depends upon public trust and
confidence in its actions. The official
actions of the Department often··have a
direct bearing upon the financial and
other interests of individuals, firms, and
institutions with which it does business.
Furthermore, the effective accomplishnient"oftnebepartmeWs ~sion is "si.gnifioa.ntly dependent u'pon a pubt\c image
that engenders confidence in the Department's integrity. Accordingly, the avoidance of any involvement that tends to
damage that image is a responsibility of
exceptional importance for all employees
who participate in or influence official
operating determinations that affect the
interests of those with whom the Department does business.
(2) If there is knowledge of an employee's involvement in or association
with circumstances reasonably construed
to reduce public confidence in the acts
or determinations of the Department,
such knowledge may be sufficient cause
for the initiation of action adverse to
the employee. Employees, therefore, are
alerted to the gravity with -which the
Department will view. any such involvement, especially if it has to do with conflicts of interest or the compromise of
integrity-whether real or only appar.ent.
§ 0.735-202
Gifts, entertain ment, and
f avors.
(a) Except as provided in paragraph
(b) of this section, an employee shall not
solicit or accept, directly or indirectly,
any gift, -gratuity, favor, entertainment,
loan, cir any other thing of monetary
value, from a person who:
(1) Has, or is seeking to obtain, cont r actual or other business or finan cial
rela tions with the Department ;
(2) Conducts operations or activities
tha t a re regula ted by the Denartment: or
(3) Has interests t h at m ay be substantially affect ed by the performance or
nonperformance of the employee's official
duty.
(b) The prohibitions of p a ragraph (a )
of t his section do not apply t o:
(1 ) The acceptance of customary business services fr om banks or other financial institutions if such services are obt ained under terms and conditions available to the general public;
<2) Obvious family or personal relationships, such as those· between the employee __aµd his _parents, children, or
spouse;· when the "circunistances make it
clear that it i~ those relationships rather
than , the busmess of the persons concerned which are the motivating factors;
(3) The acceptance of food and refreshments of nominal value on infrequent occasions in the ordinary course of
a luncheon or dinner meeting or other
meeting or on an inspection tour where
an employee may properly be in attendance;
(4) The acceptance of unsolicited advertising or promotional. material, such
as pens, pencils, note pads, calendars,
and other items of nominal intrinsic
value.
(c) An employee_ shall avoid any
action, whether or not specifically prohibited by the regulations in this part,
which might result in, or create the appearance of:
<1) Using public office for private
gain;
(2) Giving preferential treatment to
any person;
(3) Impeding Government efficiency
or economy;
(4) Losing complete independence or
impartiality; or
(5) Making a Government decision
outside official channels.
(d) An employee sha.11 not solicit contributions from another employee for a
gift, or make a donation as a gift, when
such gift is for an employee in a superior
official position. An employee in a superior official position shall not accept
a gift presented as a contribution from
employees receiving less salary than
himself.
(e) An employee shall not accept a
gift, present, decoration, or uther thing
from a foreign government unless authorized by law.
·
§ 0.73 5-20 3

MARCH 1967
$20.00 PER YEAR
"TREND, TREND, WHICH WAY'S THE TREND?" That's the absorbing question which is
being debated vigorously by the business and investment communities as the
economy feels its way cautiously into 1967.
The difficulties of a definitive answer to the question first stated above lie
in the apparent contradictions contained in the business· and financial news as
it unfolds day after day.
For example:
the rally in the stock and bond markets
in the month of January seemed to be saying that the doubts and uncertainties of
the year-end were really unfounded; that . 1967 was going to be another strong
year after all. And yet there was a nagging persistence to bearish bulletins
about business itself. Automobile production was down 18% in January and 21.5%
in the first half of February . Steel-making thus far in 1967 is off last year's
pace, with mills currently operating at only 70% of capacity. Durable goods
orders in January were down 5 . 1% from last year and business inventories were
disturbingly high .
Through it all the war in Viet Nam keeps requiring more and more money: President
AJohnson's messages to the Congress point up the urgency of expanding the
9perimeters of the Great Society; unemployment in January held at the low level
of 3.7% of the labor market (with many cities still below the "point-of-shortage");
and wages are continuing their trend of the past six months.
Although the rally in the bond and stock markets faltered in mid-February and
bad news once again seemed to capture the spotlight of the public's attention,
we have certainly not turned bearish. We still see no recession in the offing
(by our definition) and we still would put 1967 in the "plus" column as a whole.
BASICALLY, OUR FORECASTING FOCUS IS ON CONSUMERS. During most of the year 1966,
financial and capital factors were in bad trend. The stock markets were sagging,
the money markets were demoralized and the whole real estate sector of the
eco·nomy was dispirited.
Yet consumers were more numerous, more prosperous and
more fully employed. And business was good indeed!
In spite of the anomalous developments thus far in 1967, con~umers are in better
basic condition than they were a year ago!
In most metropolitan areas, employment
in this January was better than last year's.
In all such areas, the average
income of consumers is higher than it was at this time last year.
And it is
moving still higher!
It is true that about October 1, 1966, the chilling winds of doubt blew over the
consumers of the U.S. with the result that their willingness to spend (not their
capacity to spend) was momentarily curbed. While they waited to experience a
resurgence of their buying enthusiasm, they increased their savings.
In other
words, they rested their buying oars and took advantage of the biggest inventory
of their own goods in the history of the American family.
But they did not
chan e their fundamental habits! As spring comes --- and if their incomes hold
we think they will --- they'll get right back into the spending stream to take
~dvantage of the higher living standards which are within their grasp. And once
they do that, we'll forget about the dwindling profits in the last quarter of
1966 and the first of 1967.

~.at MARKET LETTER
REAL ESTATE ACTIVITY NOT ONLY FAILED TO TURN AROUND in the first month of 1967,
but i t s lipped f urther into the doldrums which had marked the last months of
1966. One of the reasons that the year-to-year comparisons with the first month
of 1966 look so bad is that --- if you remember accurately --- last year started
out impressively on the strong side, at least in the major· activity factors of
local real estate markets, with sales, mortgage lending and new construction
well ahead of the previous year, in most areas.
Here is how these activity factors performed in the latest month for which
complete national figures are available (January 1967):
Real Estate Sales
Off a little less than they were in December, sales for the nation were
down 14.7% in January, with the following regional comparison with the
same month last year:

The reasons for the slow selling pace were not much changed from those
which have prevailed in the past few months.
The sharp drop in new home
construction and completion was a major factor.
Normally the sale of a
new house results in from two to five sales of other dwelling units as
occupants play a game of "musical chairs" in the upgrading process. No
new houses; no occ~pancy shifts down the line.
In addition, the promise
of lower mortgage money rates (given
wide publicity, especially since
October) has caused many prospective

On the income property side, the rapid
drop in money rates acted to lower
realistic capit alization rates faster
than prospective buyers could adjust
their sights. Moreover, improved
market conditions in most space markets
(especiall y in the Northeast, Great
Lakes and South regions) caused potential sellers to scent higher occupancies and rentals --- thus causing them
to firm their ideas of value. Fina lly,
a rapidly rising stock market p roved a
lure to speculators looking fo r a f as t

It is obvious from the above statistics that, through the month of January
at least, the improvement in mortgage money conditions was largely
theoretical and technical rather than actual --- as far as real estate
lenders and borrowers were concerned.
As noted above, the drop of interest rates in the basic money markets during
the month of January was a little less than remarkable.
However, at the
end of that month and all during February, these trends were reversed.
Yields on treasury bills, municipals and corporates were up steadily,
week-by-week in February.
This yo-yo action of money rates in the first eight weeks of 1967 was not
reflected in the mortgage money rate situation. Reason: the supply-demand
ratio in the mortgage money markets did not parallel that in the basic
money markets. Here were the differences:
1. The savings flow into real estate-oriented institutions was
greatly improved over a year ago. On the other hand, mortgage
demand (in the kind of loans scared lenders now consider acceptable)
was disappointing.
As a result, on balance, there was more money
than there were loans.
2. In the basic money markets, demand held high and supply was not
meaningfully improved. Money lenders found that they had underpriced their commodity and took a second look at their potentials.
We see no particular "threat" in the February developments to the long-term
tr e nd of mortgage money.
1967 will continue to score improvements in this
se ct o r .
New Construction
One o f the mu ch-touted "bullish" factors cited by those who are optimistic
about 1 967 is t he belief that the ailing home-building industry will stage
a come b ack i n t he year.
So- called building stocks have shown outstanding
str e n g th on t h e n ation's stock markets as speculators have hungrily snapped
th e m up in an t i c i patio n of higher sales and earnings.
These se ntime nts hav e not only been encouraged by the statistics of housing
construction in t h e past three months (January housing starts were at a
s e asona lly adjus t ed a nnual rate of 1 , 243,000 units --- up 14.6% from
De c e mbe r and up a whopping 47% from last October' s postwar low), but by
the longe r range pros p e c ts f or a d ramati c incr ease in t h e number of young
married coupl e s starting i n 1 968 .
�PAGE 4 _ _ _ _ __ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ tk 1/4Uo,u,( MARKET LET.YER
Certainly (as this Letter has pointed out for several months), the
residential markets in most local areas have gained strength in virtually
all local areas --- and are postured for a burst of new supply in many.
In our opinion, the high expectations of the building industry (like
those which have pushed savings and loan stocks skyward since last fall)
tend to exaggerate the actual prospects for building profits --- either
on the part of the developer or the materials manufacturer . The reason:
the costs of money, materials, labor and land are such that development
profits must await a higher general rental market to encourage and
support a meaningfully higher volume of new construction.
The real profits are to be made in the purchase of good, sound, welllocated and well-designed existing property which will experience sharply
enhanced earning power before a new building boom can get started.
THE BIGGEST REAL ESTATE PROFITS IN THE PAST FIVE MONTHS· have been made in real

SPECIAL RESEARCH REPORT
A LOOK AT THE "MODEL CITIES" PROGRAM
Last year, Congress passed legislation authorizing a new urban program to be
administered by the Department of Housing and Urban Development (known as HUD).
Originally known as the "Demonstration Cities Program," it was recently renamed
the "Model Cities Program" to placate Congressmen who feared their constituents
would think the bill encouraged civil rights marches and other "demonstrations!"
Since this program may have important impacts upon big-city real estate markets,
we will explore certain key aspects of it in this month's Special Research Report.
The Model Cities Program was originally devised to counteract the following
undesirable tendencies which had appeared in the Federal government's attempts
to aid cities, especially large central cities:
h
1.
An enormous number of Federal programs were being administered by many
different Federal --- and city --- departments without much coordination. A recent Office of Economic Opportunity manual lists over 250
Federal aid programs, most of which are applicable in cities ,.
2.
Funds passed out under these programs tended to be widely dispersed
over the urban landscape.
Instead of really trying to upgrade a small
area by focusing a whole battery of urban renewal, health, antidelinquency, manpower training, education and other programs on it,
the Federal government was scattering its shots too broadly . Hence
each slum received too little assistance to counteract the forces
"naturally" dominant there.
3.
Each program assisted with Federal funds tended to be the same in all
parts of a city, and often all over the country, both because one set
of Federal rules governed it and because big-city bureaucracies wanted
to adopt "uniform and equal" policies in all neighborhoods. As a
result, specific programs were often badly adapted to the peculiar
needs of non-typica l neighborhoods, especially low-income ghettos.
4.
A great deal of urban renewal assistance was designed not so much to
eliminate blight or improve the living conditions of low-income
re sidents, but to bolster the sagging economies of big-city downtown
business districts.
Thus the wealthy were the biggest beneficiaries,
and the poor were merely shifted from one slum to another.
These complex maladies demanded a complex remedy --- and that is just what the
Model Cities Program is designed to produce.
In fact , the Guidelines describing
how t o apply for a gran t to plan (but not e xecute ) this program are over 50
pages long. Henc e we can only mention their most salient features here, before
a n a l yz i ng some of their major implications.
Part ic i pation in the program by any given city involves three stages. The
pr e - application stage lasts unti l an application for a planning grant is completed
a nd approved by HUD . No Fede r al financing is available for filling out an
a pplica ti o n .
Yet it is so complex that many cities have spent months at it and
only four h ave formally filed applications (as of February 25, 1967). HUD is
like l y t o disapprove of almost everyone's application at first until it is
adjus t e d t o r easonable conformance with the many criteria described below. After
HUD a ppr o v a l is obtained, the planning stage begins. This can last from si x
to twe l ve mo nths, a n d can be financed up to 80% by HUD g rants
(though the
total a utho r ized to HUD for such planning is only $24 mil lion over two years).
Fi n ally, for those few cities receiving final approval, the e x ecution stage

The myriad specific criteria which Model City plans must meet include the
following major ones summarized from HUD's Program Guide:
1.
The program must be comprehensive. Specifically, it should contain
the following components: physical improvement, housing, transportation, education, manpower and economic development, recreation and
cultural, crime reduction, health and social services and public
assistance.
2.
The program should provide for administrative machinery at the local
level to carry out all its aspects on a consolidated and coordinated
basis. Preferably, this means direct linkage to the mayor or other
chief executive.
3.
It should make a substantial impact on the physical, economic and
social problems in the model neighborhood area.
4.
It should remove or arrest blight and decay in the selected area or
areas of the city.
5.
It should be of sufficient magnitude to contribute to the sound
development of the entire city.
6.
It should make marked progress in reducing social and educational
disadvantages, ill health, underemployment and lack of social services
necessary to se·rve the poor and disadvantaged of the area.
7.
It should provide for widespread citizen participation.
8.
It should provide maximum opportunities for employing residents of the
area in all phases of the program and enlarged opportunities for
work and training~
9.
It should contribute to a well-balanced city with a substantial
increase in the supply of standard housing of low and moderate cost.
10.
It should contribute to a well-balanced city with maximum opportunities
in the choice of housing accommodations for all citizens of all
income levels.
11.
It should contribute to a well-balanced city with adequate public
facilities, commercial facilities a dequate to service the residential
ar eas , and ease of access between residential areas and centers of
employment.
12.
I t should provide for a comprehensive plan for the r elocation of
individuals, families, business concerns and nonprofit organizations.
In addition, eac h program should requir e re-examination of local laws, be
consis tent with comprehensive metropolitan-wide planning, be initiated within
a short period of time (under five years), embody high standards of urban design ,
maintain historic sites, make maximum use of new technology, use cost- benefit
analysis, conform to civil rights requir ements , encourage maximum private
enterprise, not reduce previous local spending in the Model City area , and be
backed by adequate local resources.
�THE REAL ESTATE FORECAST AUTHORITY _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ __ __ PAGE 7
In setting out this extraordinarily ambitious set of requirements, HUD is like a
bachelor stating he will only marry a girl with Jacqueline Kennedy's poise,
Jayne Mansfield's figure, Grace Kelly's face, Elizabeth Taylor's allure and
Barbara Hutton's money!
In fact, he would be fortunate to get any one of these
charms, as HUD will be fortunate to get even a majority of its requirements
actually met by any given city.
Although each individual criterion seems
justified, the group taken together constitute too radical a departure from
present urban government practice to be fully achieved in any single city.
Specifically, we believe that HUD's program will encounter five major obstacles
and will have to compromise with them in many cases. These are as follows:
1.
All three of the major objectives of the Model Cities Program --coordination, innovation and specific adaptation of programs to ghetto
areas --- run counter to well-entrenched bureaucratic tendencies in
city governments. City --- and Federal --- departments used to
carrying out their own functions without much checking with each
other will resist intimate cooperation in planning their programs.
Moreover, innovation requires changing established behavior patterns,
and few things are more difficult for large bureaucracies. Finally,
the development of new programs tailored to the needs of ghetto
residents, and different from programs in the rest of the city, will
run counter to tendencies toward "equal treatment" and "uniformity"
long established in some city departments.
All three of these frictions will probably be greatest regarding bigcity schools. Many school boards are relatively free from direct
political control by city governments; hence it will be hard for
mayors to get them to change their ways to fit these criteria. Yet
schools are the most important single public institution in almost
all ghettos.
They alone have the potential power to make up for many
of the home deficiencies suffered by children from deprived families.
He nce if they are not effectively integrated into the Model Cities
Program in a city, and given part of its bonus "block grants," it
cannot really achieve its major goals. So one of the key tactics for
any city trying to make this program work must be convincing school
authorities of the need to create new programs specifically designed
for ghetto areas, including programs which use school buildings for
many kinds of non-educational activities (such as recreation, social
service distribution and adult vocational training) .
2.
Concentration of leadership efforts on one Model City neighborhood
will be necessary to make this program work; yet this contradicts the
fundam e ntal "Law of Over-Dispersion" sacred to politicians. The desire
to garn widespread political support naturally leads elected officials
t o spread the benefits of any program to all areas under their jurisdiction, even though this causes a loss of the economic benefits of
concentration. Hence city politicians will be sensitive to the charge
of focusing too much attention on the Model City neighborhood,
especially since it will be a low-tax-paying ghetto area. So they may
provide only h alf - hearted leadership in support of such concentration.
3.
Ev e n if local a r eas succeed in establishing coordination among th eir
own city departments and related agencies, there is no guarantee that
Fe d e r al age n cies will similarly cooperate in Washington. For example,
whe n a city as k s for a grant from the Department of Health, Education
and We l f ar e t hat is u r gently needed for its Model City Program, it may
find itse l f at th e e nd of the long " normal processing line" along
with a ll oth e r r equ ests, i ncludi n g those in no way associated with
Model Citi es .
�PAGE S_ _ _ __ _ __ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ fk ?tat«,,uzl MARKET LETT ER
4.
In large cities, it will be impossible to simultaneously meet the two criteria of significant impact on the city as a whole and intensive
impact in the Model City neighborhood .
If an area is large enough to
be a significant slice of the entire city, it will be too big for this
program to effect intensively, since total Model City funds are quite
limited.
5.
The housing requirement in the Guidelines is ambiguous. At one point,
it says that. the program must provide "a substantial increase in ·t11e
supply of standard housing of low and moderate cost . " But in the
next sentence, it says "The program should add to the overall supply
of low and moderate-income housing, not decrease it . " The latter
requirement is virtrially impossible, since any clearance of substandard and deteriorated units, or reduction in overcrowding, will
cause a decline in total supply of low-income housing. Even building
new public housing will probably not increase this total supply,
though it could easily increase the standard supply .
In spite of these drawbacks, the Model Cities Program is ' definitely a worthwhile experiment which could have significant long-run benefits
if it is
truly conceived of as a means of demonstrating techniques which will later be
applied on a much larger scale . Specifically, it may create an incentive for
at least some cities to do enough innovating, coordinating, concentrating
and adapting of programs to particular needs to give local governments a "shot
in the arm." But eventually this tiny shot must be followed by much larger
appropriations than those as yet made for Model Cities if the lessons learned
are to ·have any truly sizeable impact upon U.S . urban problems.

A Proposal for Task Force Agenda
Part I
The staff of the Task Force has spent most of the past three
weeks attempting to outline future areas for investigation.
Our f~_ints
of departure have been based on Task - Force discussions concerning the
nature and location of urban ghettos; the definition and measurement of.
social deficit areas; the prospects for significant improvement in ghetto
job opportunities; the possibility of moving from programs to "flows"
(as defined in the Ylvisaker paper); and more focused research in such
areas a s housing and welfare programs.
These discussions, you will recall, were at a high level of
generality and implied further decisions about which areas should be
given intensive study- studies which hopefully would produce policy
recorrnnendations for the President.
In recent Task Force discussions and in interviews with a number
of government of~icials another, more general theme has emerged to
compete and, in a sense, out-flank the development of Task Force thinking
on the above issues.
It appears clear that this group believes that the time· has come
for a sharp break with previous Federal policy-making and prograunning
directed towards urban problems. *
The need for a new "laundry list" of
marginal adjustments and categorical .aid
programs is rejected.
,





It is
In fairness we might concede the Federal government has .only recent ly
b egun to look at....~ts role as solving urban problems as opposed to
providing welfare 'payments, more' housing etc. The fact that Feds feel
this way now is of course a mamor advance. The fact that they increasingly

assurance of the potential significance of our work.

felt , instead, th a t
th e Pr e sid e nt mu s t a lt e r or g o outsid e t h e presen t
f r amework (or even create a new framework) for d~cision-making about
urb an problems to seek ways and means for achieving national goals in
urban areas.
The task force believes that present. activity and
predict able future activity can be reshaped and criticized productively,
but it also is convinced that such an approach offers faint promise as
a source of significant innovation in solving urban problems.
Ind eed,
the Task Force might go a step further and argue that the whole range of
ex isting Federal programs and institutions primarily des~gned to solve
urban problems have had a relatively minor impact on human and phy s ical
development in American cities.
This judgment (however qualified) is supported by the foll owi ng -admittedly over-simplified -- reasoning:
1)
While the range and size of Federal activity has increased rapidly
and while the institutions specifically charged with urban
responsibility have multiplied and grown, general economic, social
and physical trends have not altered significantly in any large city.
2)
It s eems therefore reasonable to assume th at the forces shaping thes e
t r ends a r e far more meaningful in affecting the quality of urban
1 i f e than i s th e sum total of Federal· programs focused on "urban ne eds".
3)

understanding and confronting some of the most important questions
in urban ' areas"·:· :
�3
The implications of all this for the Task Force include the
following:
1)
further infusions of Federal assistance through present or
predictable grant-in-aid programs offer little hope of significantly
altering major urban trends; therefore the Task Force should not
corrnnit a major portion of its limited resources to seeking new
devices for such increases.
Such devices, as well as adjustments
in present devices, should have a place in Task Force recommendations
only insofar as they spring from the kind of agenda ·suggested below.
2)
The search for more effective levers for influencing urban trends
is severely handicapped by the sorts of Federal apparatus and
information available for dealing with urban problems.
(E.g. see attached paper on social deficits.)
3)
The Task Force could most profitably allocate its time to assembling
some of the major social and economic questions relevant to ur ban
problems; indicating what kinds of institutions and/or devices for
policy formulation are in existence or might be created to deal with
such questions.
(It is even possible that the Task Force might
"solve" a question or two and have a basis for more specific _policy
recommendations.)
Questions might be modeled on the following:
1)
One obvious goal for Federal policy . is increasing income and, thus,
~ . .~ J
consumer demand in the ghetto.

(a)
Where in the Federal establishment (in HUD?).
Is there a
means for sorting out the various policy alternatives which
might be pursued to achieve this goal (e.g. negative income
tax, family allowance, jobs for the poor, etc.).
The answer to such a question would include surveying existing
sc atte red research and recorrnnendations on the several alternatives and
determining whether a basis exists already (though undiscovered) for
packaging a Federal approach to fulfilling this goal.
If this is so,
we migh t recommend some method of pulling together urban-oriented
pol icy-making on this questions.
If, as is more likely the case, there
is no sum total of effort which exhausts the alternative approach e s to
this problem our recommendations would include the need for same.
In short, the approach involves posing fundamental questions,
determining if a solution is now available, and if not, what is needed
to begin us down the road towards one.
One Task Force goal then becomes - at the most general level not simply to look for the "real" levers in this urban game (we have
neither staff, nor time, nor expertise t~ do a thorough job here) but
rath er to look for ways of elevating and . refining the level and nature
of urban policy-making.

It should not be difficult to start this process by agre e ing

We already have some.

The Task Force, it appears, is close to agreement on another
s e t of concerns which can be approached by more traditional methods,
and presumably would produce more traditional recommendations.
1)
Cha nges in Federal assistance systems
The Task Force is justified in looking at such proposals as
t ax sha ring, combining grant-in-aid programs etc., in terms o f
the ir r el a tive impace on cities.
It is clear that with a sma ll

This program also represents the latest Federal response to
the "ghetto" problem.
Given the political, social and moral
imperatives for doing something now about urban ghettos, the
Task Force should make some attempt to review and evaluate the
early directions of model cities.

This program also represents the boldest approach to altering
the system of Federal assistance and therefore is related
directly to item (1) above.

DRA}= FOR DISCUSSION
Staff paper on ~-,.o del Cities
The discussion which follows treats those problems and conflicts
which are li-ely to arise in the implementation of the Model Cities
program.
Most of them are built into the inte govenunental system in
which bdel Cities will operate without t he administrative instnnnents
to co ect or direct them.
By i mplicat ion, the questions raised in
this pape_ are suggestive of conceptual diff icul ties with the Model
Cities approach, and not of the effectiveness of those charged with its
administration.
The Model Cities prog~am is considered by many to be the most
useful instnu nt yet put int e hands of American cities by the Federal
goverrunent.
This program tests several notions:
one is that a multitude

Americal'l cities can make imaginative and effective use of supplemental
fu1ds.
Model Cities represents an attractive departure from past Federal
efforts in sol ving urbal'l problems but it cannot be expected to overcome
t he barriers that those previous effor ts have helped to erect.
Consider the perspective of a well-intentioned mayor.
A relatively
small carrot has been he ld out by t he Federal government, which can be
taken and eaten if the mayor can do some things which t he Feder al government cannot:
coordinat e and maximize t he impact of a rultitude of
cat egorical aids.

This is especial:y true where
ur an renewal activity has avoided hard core slum eighborhoods wh ich
now must be incorporated into a comprehensive rene.,ral effort.
Then
there is the obvious problem of having to compete for one of seventy
slots for which the fiscal rewards are not great.
Given constraints oft: is nature, it is not surprising that cities
would not involve all the important cowmunity-,~ide agencies and citizens'
groups in preparing the initial application as required in the guidelines.
There is not time (3-1/2 months between issuance of the guidelines and
final application date) and there is not the staff to deal with suggestions
and complaintso
The city might also wonder how HUD and other Federal
agencies are to review a large nur.iber of applications in a very short
time and realistically evaluate ,t he thoroughness and comprehensiveness of

A 'DRAFT PROPOSAL
THE PURPOSES AND WORK PROGRAJ.'1 OF THE
TASK FORCE ON THE CITIES
Summary Statement
It is recorrrrnended that the concept and criteria underlying
Federal urban policy move fro m program to floo:
and that the Task
Force use its time an~ equity to mark this historical divide and to
begin detailing what it means and by what policies and procedures
it might be expressed.
Background
The l a st generation of Federal activity in urban affairs has
deve loped along two line s tha t l ead to growing frustration in a
pluralistic society of increa sing mas s and priva te initiativ e :
(1) the notion tha t for every urban problem the re should be a sp e cific
program which is to b e executed pr incipa lly t hrough a public bur e aucracy ;
(2) the d ef inition of urb an prob l em s and polici es in s ta tic (mainly
ge ograph i c ) t erms.
This ur ba n wor ld is two uni verse s ap ar t fro m the kind of ana l ysi s
on wh ich th e econom ic polici es of the U. S . during this s a~e period h ave
be en conc eived and e na ct ed.
Th e l a tter have derived f r om dynami c
ana l ysis expr e ssed in terms o f na tional a ggregat e s.
Th i s econo;-nic
mod e l ha s h ad at least s ome s embl a nce of internal consi stency , and lev e r s
0•
�2
I
have been designed which make it possible to effect changes in
national economi c behavior at relevant scale.
The urban model has not even the pre tense of int erna l consistency,
and with its tiny levers exerts a force on urban development so small
that even its local effects are barely visible.
What is worse, it
involves such a massive input of politica l and admi.nistrative t a l ent
that the nation's energies and equities are dissipat~d.
Despite some lingering prejudice, it is becoming evident to many
of us that the simple multiplication of pre sent efforts and redoubling
of budg ets will not produce e quiva l ent r esults.
In the us e of the
existing urban model, we have alre ady r ea ched the point of dimi nishing
returns:
Ten times the pr e sent urban r enewa l, we lfa r e and other programs
will more like ly produc e ten time s the pre s eni frustr a tions r a ther than
some multiple of the desired urban outcome .
To s ay that the pr e s ent urb an model h as been inadequate is not to
s ay th at th e more dy nam ic mode l o f na tiona l e conomi c policy h as been
idea l.
From many points o f view -- not l eas t the urb a n -- the na tiona l
ec onomic model h a s pr oduc ed s ome indi ffe r ent and some times disastT.ous
res ults.
For one , i t h a s b een ti ed to a singl e-entry bookkeeping of
na tiona l b e nef it:
a t a lly o f Gross Nationa l Produ ce whi ch r eg i sters
pr esumed social ga ins wi t hout of f s e tting measures of soci a l cost.
More impor tant, the r e cord er s and eng ineers of a ggrega t e economi c change
h ave omitt e d any cons id eration of area - except f or an occas i onal bow
to economic r eg ions wh e n a stray member of the peer group or a dr a~a tic
accid ent of history (like the TVA) have made it resp e cta bl e .
�3
In an age of urban concentration, the failure to include area
as one dimension of national economic policy has been folly.
And
'
i
with the prospect of peace being declared, and urban development
becoming the object of increas ed public and private spending, the
need for a major policy shift is all the more urgent.
Consider four examples:
1.
The flmv of effective consumer demand into areas of
"social deficit" - Bedford-Stuyvesant; North Philadelphia, the ghettoes
of our metropolitan areas; the abandoning small towns of the Jersey
Pines, the Appalachian chain, etc.
In these areas -it is b e coming
painfully obvious that pres ent public pro gr ams (renewal; ,ve lfare ;
job training and deve lo pment) are not producing much of an effe ctive
dema nd, and that until there is such a d er.iand, there won't b e induc ed
an adequ a te economic b ase .
Thus the growing cry for the nega tive
income t ax , the guarant eed minimum income , the fa mily allowanc e , and
the "welfare dollar" (of Lloyd's Bank Revi ew , ca. Octob er 1966 ) wh ich
giv e s the poor a choic e of expenditures among essential s e rvi ces .
The Task Force wi ll not h ave to inv ent propos a ls of this sort;
but we can ( a ) sh ow h ow th ey f it int o a more dynamic urb an model;
(b) do b ad ly-nee ded di gg ing into the ir pr obable e ff ec ts , relative
advantages, and adm inistra tiv e feasibility.

deficit.
The flow of investment and enterprise into areas of social
Public programs of renewal, housing, and economic opportunity
have had discouragingly weak leverage in stimulating the economic
development of ghettoed and other declining corrnnunities.
that tax policy offers a more promising lead:
It may be
declaring areas of socia l
deficit elig ible sites for Fede ral, st a te and local tax incentive s of
various sorts for spe cifi e d kinds o f inv e stment and enterpris e .
The proposal is not new; but again, the Task Force can develop
its rationa le and explore its fe a sibility.
3.
The f low of nat iona l t ax r e sourc e s to sta t e s and mun ic ipa l iti e s,
(and to othe r qua si-public instrumentaliti e s for corrnnunity action).
The r eadi es t exampl e is the He ller Pl an, which -- along with othe r
proposa ls like the sha r ed-t ax -- ba dly n eeds r e sha ping to f it a d e cl a r ed
schedul e o f urb an needs and r eforms.
It seems cl ear the pre s ent
structure of Fede r a l gr ants pr oduce s a flow of r ev enu e s to th e l e sser
jurisd ic t i on s which i s too sma ll, too c a t egoric a l, to o i ncoher ent , and
too much i n t he c ontro l of s pe cia li z ed t e chn ici ans .
It a l so conc entrate s
on the a rt of grant sman s hip r a t he r tha n on per formanc e ; and it exa cts

ch ange s and c onc ess ions fr om gov ernors and l eg is l a tur e s , mayor s and

governme nt, a Sta t e mi ght b e aske d to expand and r esh a pe it s own
r ev enue s y s t em , and mak e some f undament a l changes i n i ts admini stra t i v e
structure and procedur e s ) .
�5
The Task Force might declare for an increased flm~ of Federal
revenues to the States and local governments through more generalized
I
I
grants, and begin to detail some of the more promising ways, means
and conditions.
(And now that the "growth sector" of central citi e s
se ems to be public and non-profit in character (education, health,
government, etc.), we might explore the possibility of expanding in
lien payments to those municipalities as a major reve,nue source.)
4.
The flow of nationa l resources into housing in de cl a r ed areas.
This flow has been too sma ll, too erratic, and off the geogyaphical
targets of need.
The Task Force mi ght review in the persp e ctive of
thirty years the efficacy of curr ent devic e s and (e.g. FHA 1 s)
conventional wisdom:
subsidies; etc.
mortgage insuranc e ; below-ma rket-int er es t-rate s;
There may be more powe rful levers than these, with
more consist e nt effects and ge og raphical accuracy.









There are othe r flows to c ons ider:
most important, th e flm~s of
people to and within the country I s met ropolitan areas, wi th a sp e cial
eye to the forces, inc ent ive s, etc ., which sti mu l a t e and shape thos e
flows.
For example, a low airline fare from Puerto Rico to oth er
metropolitan area s than New York might have l essened "The Puerto Rican
problem".

fi.lo Pv-ofit, No Jf-Jf o uses
The While House was well · advised to abandon
\he proposal for ~ national nonprofit housing
corpo r:ition to build in the slums. President Johnso n did ihe right thing. Disposing of that foredoo med idea clears the way for the more hopeful .
legislation , that, one hop es, will shortly attack the
housing shortage.
The concept of a nonprofit builder is, in itself,
an unfortunate one. It was in troduced 01iginally
to get certai n types of housin g subsidies for lowincome families through Con gress . The country
has now had quite enough experience to. know.·
.that non pro fit enterpri ses arc incap::iblc of produc- .
ing hous ing on a significant scale.
This country da°cs n ot insist up on · a non profit° ·.·
corporation to build the sup ersonic_ t ranspo rt,' oi·,·
. to develop the moon rockets. Con gress does not ··
_insist on nonp:ofit corporations in the h eav ily
subsidized shipbuilding industry, or in agriculture,
.or in. oil. Why single out housing? If we t ruly want
a massive volume of residential const ruction in
the big ci ties, then we shall have . to make it as·
profitable to build ho uses there as in the suburbs.
To make it profitable, Congress's most effe ctive
tool is the internal reven ue code. The power ·of
this method must be imm ediately visible to ::inyone who walks do wn Conn ectic ut ·A venue; if half
· a dozen obscure lines in the tax laws had b een
. written a bit diffe rently, the great office building
boom would never have h appened. The time h as

construction in declining neighborl}oods. .

Mr. Califano denied, however ,
r epeated rumors that the White
Hou.se, because o \\·ha t some
officials fel t was a premature
disclosu ·c of de:tails, had abandoned that plan .
The pla w - s f irst described
in The New York Times of

over a period of scvcr::t! months
by p ivate hou ing experts and
officials of the Department of
Housing and Urban Develop-.
ment.
Low-Interest l\for t.gages
T he main purpose of the non- 1
profit group, which would be :
called the Urba n Development '
Corporat·on, would be to lure
private mortgage money and
the private construction industry into the rehabilitation fi eld
on a large scale. The main indu cement would be long-term,
low-interest Government mortga6es.
Several Administration off icials said Thursday that U1e
plan, which reportedly never
reached President Johnson's
des:t, was viewed with consider able skepticism, in part because
it called for :i.caui ition of slum
properties by the Urban D evelopment Co rpor a tion itself .
This meant that the corporation might wind up holding a
great many s um properties for
which it could find neither buyer s nor ren ters.
' However, according to thes e
' officials, the notion of attract ' ing private enterp1·ise into the
' slum rehabil itation field j_s still
· very much alive.

Dear Mayor Allen:
This will confirm our conversations concerning your participation
on the President 1 s Task Force on Cities which will be chaired by
Dr. Paul Ylvisaker.
As you know, the problems faced by American cities have long been
of great concern to the President. He has directed that every effort
be made by this Administration to meet the challenge and has called
upon the Congress for legislation which will enable the Administration
to make a coordinated and comprehensive attack on the problems of
the cities. · He now calls upon the members of this Task Force for
recommendations on new steps which should be taken as well as for
advice on the most effective ways to implement existing legislative
authority.
This task is as difficult and challenging as it is important, and the
President is grateful for your willingness to participate.
The first meeting of the Task Force will be held on Friday, Octobe r 28 ,

Dear Mr. President,
Your Task Force on the Ci ties agre·ed early in .its deliberations that now was no longer the time merely for minor adjustments
in current programs.
The nation's urban condition demands far more.
What more it demands is not simply a matter of money.
A much
higher level of spending and investment - pri va,t e as well as public is clearly in order.
But we concur in your own expressions, and those
of your Cabinet, that money in itself is not an urban panacea.
We have attempted in the attached report to state what els e
i s involved in "working at scale" on the nation's urban problems.
We do not pretend to have all the answers, and we are not as
certain as we would like to be about those we do put forward.
We a re
a lso aware of the constraints governing your own and the nation's
respons e.
Ne vertheless , we conclude our wor k on a note o f g reat urgency.
The growing apartheid of our urban populations, ~egregating by race
and income, presents this nation with an ugly fact and an ominous
future - and possibly a threat to our security which might well overshadow that of Vietnam.
This threat may not materialize.
Yet we think it would be
folly to test .that possibility by doing no more to dispel it than
is explicit in the nature and scale · of our current urban efforts.
We submit this report to you with our deepest respect and
our very best wisheso
�Draft 5/10/67
CONFIDENTIAL
INTRODUCTION
America and its communities are changing with unsettling rapidity.
Most of this change has been healthy; and most of the ~roblems
it has caused tend to evoke their own solutions.
This country - de-
spite its transitional strains and its freely-voiced complaints - has
an immense capacity for sel1-correction.
There is always a temptation - and a pressure - to over-react:
to give equal ear to every complaint, to chase off after every problem~ and to wind up with a congeries of programs which may slow up
rather than accelerate the nation's natural and long-run capacity for
self- correction.
Evidence is accumulating that such has already happened in the
federal government's response to urban problems over the past twenty
years.
These have been years of experimentation, improvisation, and
probing.
On balance, they have been constructive.
But neither in
scale nor impact have they caught up with the dimensions and force of
the · nation's urban trends and developing problems.•
The time has come to move from experimentation over a wide front,
and in sometimes contrary directions, to an effort
a ) which is aimed at selected problems of transcending importance
b) which is of a scale large enough to make a difference:
c) which is not dissipated by conflicting policies and administrative arrangements:
d) which offer powerful incentives to state, local and private
initiative, and thereby move toward a "steady state" of continuous problem-solving;
e) which begin to erase the public's skepticism -- its growing
�Introduction

feeling that public programs ara not
to-bo-
taken _seriously,
that more is promised than will ever be delivered.





The
Task
Foree
presently dalf fot













believes there are seven urban· problems which
a national
etfort at scale -- p~oblems which are
not self-correcting, at lsast nbt within a sufferable length of time~
1) the segregation of race a:nd income~ ai1d' the separation of
ghettoed populations from the growth ~ectors of the- urban
economy.
2) the lack of provision for urban youth, especially educatiot
and jobs.
3) the absence of an urban competence in the determination of
national economic policy.
4) the inadequacy of financial flows to and among urban communities, and to the older, depressed areas in particular.
5) the extremely categorical approach to urban programming;
the over-centralization of detail; the multiplication of
required consents; and the disincentives to community
enterpr ise.
6 ) t he me agre f low of talent into pµb lic servi ce at s t ate and
local l e ve l s .
7) the lack of provision for l ong-range programming, and for
continuous innovation and evaluation.

III A.


URBAN SEGREGATION
The crisis of our cities is first of all the _s.e g.r.egation of
race and income.
There is no urban solution of any validity· that
does not deal directly with the questions posed by this segregation.
The facts are these:
23% of the total population of our
central cities is Negro, and 35% of these Negroes have incomes in
the poverty range.
Within five years, assuming present population
trends and even allowing for current levels of ameliorative public
programs, the proportion of Negroes to central city population will
rise to 28%, with the same percentage as today remaining in poverty.
By 1978, both proportions will be 35%.
By 1983, our central cities
population Will be 44% Negro, nearly two-fifths of them poor.
These are percentages of total central city population.
But
by 1973, at l e ast 10 of our major citie s will be predomi nantly Negr o ;
by 1983, at least 20, including Chicago, Philadelphia, Cleveland ,
Detroit (etc .).
To repeat, these proje ctions show what wi ll happen if present
population trends continue a nd current governmental policies and
levels of spending remain in force.
To alter these projections significantly, quantum leaps will
have to be taken in public policy and levels of spending.
For
example, if the size of the Negro population of central cities is
...... ~
..
,
__
,·
�to remain what it is
approximately 600,000 Negroes_.ea.ch year must
move into predominantly white suburbs.
That figure would represent
from 10-15 times the present rate of Negro out migration.
Again, if the proportion of Negroes in poverty is to be reduced
to the general poverty rate of the total population, we estimate the
costs of that enrichment (projecting current per capita costs of
special housing, educational, employment training and other programs)
at$
annually over a _____ year period.
If the nation were to decide to equalize both the Negro's
settlement pattern and his incidence of poverty, our best estimate
of total costs would be$ _________ per year over a ---~year
period.
These may seem staggering figures.
What is staggering to us
is that urban policy has been developed in this country without
attempting these calculations, yet fostering the illusion that one
o r the other - - or both -- of the two alte rnatives, enrichment and
dispe rsion, were s ome how being accomplished and at scale .
The fact is that both the rate of enrichment and the rate of
dispersion are l agging ; and the s e gra gati on o f r ace and income in
our great metropolitan areas is outstripping whatever we are now
doing to offse t it.
We of the Task Force deplore the segregation that is taking
place; and if the choice were ours, we would pay the price of simultaneously reducing the poverty and concentration rates of the Negro
population.
The prospect of Negro dominance of our central cities
we cannot regard with equanimity, although we are almost persuaded
�otherwise by some compelling arguments (a)' that the transition is
likely to be much more moderate than alarmists might portray; and
(b) that the coming of Negroes to political power might well provide
the psychological lift that community has long been awaiting.
Wnat
we still regard with distaste is the freezing of racial and class
distinctions into political boundary lines; and what we fear· is even
the remotest chance of escalating present frictions into guerrilla
and even civil war.
We therefore submit the following recommendations and alternative courses of action:
�Draft 5/10/67

II~ O.
