HOUSING PROBLEM STIRS
PHILADELPHIA CITIZENS
(By Associated Press)

PHILADELPHIA, Feb. 6.-Virtually
every state in the Union and many
distant parts of the world are repres-
ented among the thousands of ship
workers and their families who are
hastening to this city to settle in the
new community established in the
Fortieth ward for employees of a
large shipbuilding corporation which
has established plant at Hog Island.
The influx, which began with the es-
adjustment of the plant a short time
ago, will add, according to local of,
ais, from $4,000 to 10000 persons
Philadelphia's population.
efore the establishment of the Hog
nd plant, thousands of workmen
aEsfaeted to the Delaware river ship
building yards had utilized all the
housing facilities in the district. This
made it necessary for the city to CO
perate with the government in plan
ming for the reception of the new army
shich Philadelphia is called upon tc
accommodate.
Moore than 10000 workers will be
required to erect the houses in the
community which will in the future be
the homes of the new arrivals. 1t is
estimated, according to surveys made
at the instance of the city, that from
5000 to $500 dwellings will be neces-
sary. The cost will exceed $4,000,
900 including wages.
Another fortune will be required fol-
the construction of sewers, water ia
cilities and other sanitary arrange
ments in this new section. Streets
will be laid, miles of water pipes will
be installed and all the heating, light
ing and transportation accommoda
lions of modern city.
This working program is to be hast
ened with all possible speed so that
workmen who could be used on the
scores of ships contracted for by the
government In Delaware river yard
will be released without delay.
The city is still working on the
problem of police and fire protection
for the Hog Island" colony along
with other details which cannot be ar
ranged until the homes are built.

marked with the coat of arms of the
republic where it is sold.
Approval of trade acceptances by
the federal reserve board has removed
much of the difficulty which formerly
beset American export trade. Long
term credits generally are required by
South American buyers.
Modern equipment ana alert bust.
ness methods were found by Mr.. Bar
rett in his investigation of newspapers
and printing Offices, In Buenos Aires
alone there are 80 daily papers. of
which II are printed in foreign Ian
guages, four in Italian, two in English.
German and Syrian, and one in
French. Until three years ago little
news was received from the United
States, but closer relations between
the two countries and the growth of
the pan-American idea have caused
demand for American news, which is
being met by increased cable service.
The South American papers have a
more serious tone than those of the
United States. Features" are a rar-
ity, and the comic supplement is I'M
known; but novels of literary value
are printed in daily installments, so
arranged in the paper that they can
be cut out and preserved in book
form.
Gable dispatches received by some
papers are posted on bulletin boards.
where they may be compared with the
dispatches as printed, to show that
the news is genuine and was given
the public without padding" Scare
heads virtually are unknown.
Magnificent buildings house many
of the newspapers, decorated in mar
bles and tiles, and containing art
works. A unique feature of one build
ing is fencing room, a reminder OF
the days when the code duello was the
arbiter of personal disputes. A mas.
ter-at-arms still is employed by the
paper to instruct its staff in fencing
as a pleasant and profitable recrea-
ton.
The same paper has powerful whis-
tie, which it uses to announce star
Ting events to the city. Until the
European war began, extra editions
were few and far between, and the
whistle seldom was heard. AS world
events became of daily occurrence, the
whistle blew frequently. A city coun-
Gil antagonistic to the editor of the
paper attempted to impose restrictions
on noises such as the whistle by pro-
yiding a fine for blowing whistles at
certain hours. The editor made out
his check to cover large number
fines, and the extra" continued to T..
sounded for the city's benefit. Finally
the ordinance was repealed
