The Conser- vatives have indicated that their first attack against the government's policy will be directed at the housing pro- gramme. They insist that the Socialiste" target of 200,000 new houses a year is insutiicient, and maintain that any government could and should see that not less than 800,000 houses a year are constructed. The Socialists argue that a variety of circumstances, such as the country's how financial commitments for defense, the relative scarcity of steel and the high cost of other building materials, makes an annual target abovo 200,000 houses impossible to attain at this time. Furthermore they contend that such a building programme is sufficient to solve the housing prol lom over a given time. The answer: to that is the time to be taken is too long. Housing in England, Uko elsewhere, is a crucial subject, affecting hundreds of thousands of people, and any political party which left the Impression it was... not striving its utmost to tackle the problem would quickly loso popularity.
