October is Membership Month
More than 11 million P. T. A.
members opened their annual
membership enrollment drive this
month. In a “knock on every door”
plan, they seek to find new mem
bers interested in advancing the
welfare of children.
Here in Alaska and throughout
the U.S., the National Congress
of Parents and Teachers will seek
to add some half-million new
“parents, teachers or friends of
children” to what is already the
national’s largest voluntary ser
vice organization. Alaska became
a member of the -national organi
zation in 1957.
Kodiak P.T.A. has a fairly
large membership, and fair at
tendance at meetings. But the
drive, the success of which will
be reflected in the meeting next
Thursday, points up the need of
every parent and teacher bonding
together for the welfare of the
child. Mrs. James C. Parker, of
Grand Rapids, Michigan, president
of the National Congress, states
that the primary purpose of the
P.T.A. is to "safeguard children.”
Mass Production
Dominates Housing
Mass-produced housing has be
come increasingly dominant in
the American market for single
family homes in recent years, ac
cording to data compiled jointly
by the U. S. Department of Labor
and Commerce.
The figures show that more
than four out of every five new
private one - family non - farm
homes were constructed by com
mercial builders in the 1955-56
period as against two out of every
three in 1949. The outstanding
gain was shown by the classifica
tion of operative builders* those
who do the complete job from buy- (
*ng land to selling finished houses.
As against this trend, owner ]
builders who executed their own
construction plans put up only
about one out of every seven new
single family nonfarm homes in
the 1955-56 period, less than half
the proportion in 1949.
In designating October as th«
period for membership enroll
ment, she called upon “every par
ent-teacher member to knock onc<
more on the door, and at th<
heart, of every American, so tha
all of us, working together, ma;
make America the best possibl<
home for all our children.”
