useless to cry peace as long as we
are voting. tremendous sums for a
standing army"
For defense purposes, Mr.. Berger
contendcd that there was no need of
a standing army.

! II you do not believe the house sit
uation has reached a serious point
| in Brunswick, start out in an effort
! TO rent a desirable residence any
I where in the city and you will find
| that not one of the local renting
agencies have single house for
rent ON their books, with no likel-
hood of having any until some new
residences for renting purposes are
constructed in the city.
Probably never before in the his
tory of the city has the demand for
estate men are realizing more forci-
bly, than ever that something will
have to be done at once to relieve
this situation.
AS an example of the local situa-
ton, it became known several days
ago that one very desirable residence
on Union street was to be vacated
shortly, and since that time no less
than ten people have applied for the
one house. Nearly every day appli
cations are made to local real es
tate men for houses, but they have
none to offer. and are free to state
that there is but little hope of any
becoming vacant in the near future.
What is needed in Brunswick at
present is any number of small hous-
- OF f0ur or five rooms, suitable for
small families. 1t is not exaggera-
ting in the least to say that fully
twenty-five Or thirty of these resi-
dences could be rented tomorrow
without the least difficulty.
It is understood that a number of
focal business men have recently dis
cussed the situation, and. while no
definite agreement was reached, the
matter was thoroughly discussed,
and the final result may be the form
alton of a company for the purpose
of erecting number of houses for
renting purposes.
