GERMANY is NOT
BETTER OFF FOR
HOMES THAN u. S.

Housing is a serious problem in
Germany as well as in America, ac-
cording to the United States de-
partment of labor, which is about
to publish an account taken from
official German reports. Building
has practically ceased in the great
German cities Only One-ninth as
many houses were built in 1916 as
in 1912, and the houses are much
smaller The total number of
houses erected in the As largest
German cities in Germany was only
1,009 during 1916 and still less in
1917. The total number of houses
erected in all Germany was much
less than the number built in any
one of dozen American cities.
In such cities as Berlin, Ham
burg and Frankfort building has
long since ceased. Only in the
great war-industrial towns is there
any construction of any kind. 1t
is in these latter towns such as
Essen and Kiel that there is any
present shortage of houses. The
war has depleted the population of
Berlin and Hamburg so that they
do not suffer even though they have
less and poorer accommodation
than formerly. So Germany has
the spectacle Of industrial towns
towns packed to the point of dis
comfort. while her great cities are
partly filled. In AK la Chapelle
one house in - is idle; in Barmen,
one in Is; in Berlin, one in 16; in
which with its shipping
and export trade was a rapidly ex-
panding hive of industry before the
war, over per cent of the houses
are absolutely vacant; in Bonn, 4
per cent are idle; in Frankfort on
the Main, So per cent. No new
houses are built and the old ones
wear out. but the population is
being depleted faster than the
houses
But while the cities stagnate
workmen are packed in the great
munition cities. Less than l per
cent of the dwellings are idle in
eight of the cities where war in
dustries thrive. Among these cities
are Essen. Erfurt. Kiel. Lubbock;
Stettin. Brandenburg, Konigsberg,
and Magdeburg. Conditions at kiel
are particularly deplorable Only
one house in 500 is vacant and the
number of uninhabitable places is
normally higher than this.
