Just before the establishment of the Housing Corporation, Department of Social Welfare in Ministry of Health and Welfare hold a conference to make 'the designing standards for housing and its surroundings.' First proposal had several ideas. One was to propose house types following family members. But it was denied in the conference. And the corrected 'the designing standards for housing and its surroundings' were presented without reference plans. Then the Housing Corporation made the standard plans. But it made a big mistake. It adopted figures by meter to plans by "shaku." After all the Housing Corporation couldn't receive the important ideas by Department of Social Welfare in Ministry of Health and Welfare.
