for the construction Of five hundred
houses for workmen in the shipyards
in the Red Hook and Erie Basin sec
tions of Brooklyn. They have drawn
up forms of contract for the houses,
and estimates are being made as to the
cost of the project.
Although the plant of the Robins
Drydock and Repair Company and the
smaller shipyards in the neighborhood
have expanded greatly since the out
break of the war, there has been prac-
tically no development of real estate to
house the new workers More than ten
thousand men are employed now in the
plants, and many of them have long
distances to travel to reach their work
The Shipping Board is empowered to
acquire land for such houses by reaui-
sition, purchase, lease or otherwise
The shipbu;lders are to be responsible
for the erection of the houses and the
workmen. 1t is planned to permit the
men to buy the houses on easy terms
or to rent them, according to their
preferences.
"We won't build bungalows" said one
of the men interested in the project,
to-day. "Our men don't want bunga-
lows. We viii put up substantial one
or two family homes that they can buy
if they want to-homes that will be a
bargain when they get them.
"If the men buy these houses they
will be paying for the material and
work in the house. They won't be pay
ing a lot into a contractors pocket"

Having taken as life partner for bet

tion SO that he could stay home and
support the new Mrs. Robertson.
Since Secretary Baker championed
the practice of late marriages, the dis
trict board is moro lenient TO the
newlyweds. When the date alone is
suspicious the reg;strant gets the ben

the board unanimously held that marry
