Abstract
A major purpose of this study has been to examine attempts to introduce predictability and fairness into the allocation process of a major public bureaucracy. In order to do this, the experiences of the Boston Housing Authority were examined. One must be careful in generalizing policy implications which arise out of a specific case study. However, to the extent that generalizations can be made, the BHA is a valuable example because of its representative structural and historical characteristics.
