MRS. MAY WATKINS DOES THE FAMILY WASH IN THE KITCHEN OF THEIR NEW HOME. THEY WERE FORCED TO MOVE WHEN THEIR OLD HOUSE IN THE MULKEY SQUARE AREA OF KANSAS CITY, MISSOURI, WAS CONDEMNED AS A PART OF AN INTERSTATE HIGHWAY PROJECT. THE FAMILY SEARCHED FOR TWO MONTHS FOR HOUSING WITHIN THEIR PRICE RANGE AND RENTED FOR $80 PER MONTH. THE PLACE HAS BETTER HEATING AND IS CLEANER THAN THEIR OLD HOUSE. MANY RESIDENTS OF THE OLDER LOW INCOME NEIGHBORHOOD WERE NOT AS FORTUNATE IN FINDING OTHER HOUSING
