REGIONAL AND DISTRICT CONSTRUCTION OFFICES The Veterans’ Housing Program Order N o. 1 has been issued to save materials desperately needed for veterans’ housing and is based on a thorough study of the housing emergency and the present insufficiency of building materials. This action has been taken because only by prohibiting the starting of construction of less essential and deferrable building projects, can enough materials be found to provide shelter for the returning veterans and their families. Therefore, it was necessary to open the O. T. C.-C. P. A. Regional and District Construction Offices to oversee the activities in the construction field and to service requests for the necessary orders and forms. THESE CONSTRUCTION OFFICES WILL CONFINE THEIR ACTIVITIES TO CONSTRUCTION MATTERS ONLY. Applicants requiring authorization to construct for any non-residential construction, including farm, commercial and industrial as outlined in the construction order VHP-1 may obtain the necessary form CPA-4423 and file application with their nearest O. T. C.-C. P. A. Construction Field Office. Applicants for housing and farm dwellings also outlined in the order should apply to the nearest Federal Housing Administration Office. A complete listing of the regulations and forms effective under Veteran’s Emergency Housing Program is given on page 9. A directory of the O. T. C.-C. P. A. Regional and District Construction Field Offices is as follows: DIRECTORY OF O. T. C.-C. P. A.
