It's driven 250,000 people out of the city; it put like 25,000 small businessmen out of business, and the cost to the people of Boston, as I predicted, would be about two billion dollars, and the amount of money they got from the government 200 and some odd million dollars.

Equipped with factory-installed kitchen appliances, one-piece glass-fiber bathrooms and even air conditioning, they sell for only $14,500. In high-cost Chicago, similar-sized homes built by time-consuming conventional methods would ordinarily carry price tags of about $25,000. Thanks to such easy terms as $350 down and monthly mortgage payments of $125, National's module homes will reach families with incomes as low as $6,500 a year...
