HOUSES BECOMES
MORE Evident

That cottages for rent are almost
impossible to obtain and are getting
more scarce every day is the report
sent out from the Trent Trust Com
pany this week
Two or three years ago, they say,
they had long list of houses to rent
but now il is just the reverse, and the
list is made up of people waiting to
get one.
AS result rents have gone up con-
siderably and il is believed that the
situation this winter will be even
worse than last year when tourists
begged people in private homes to
rent them a room
While new houses for rent are con-
stantly being built in almost every
section of Honolulu, the demand far
exceeds the growth and il is thought
by some businessmen that many peo-
pie are waiting for the war to end to
see IL the influx continues before in
vesting too heavily.
