Probably there are few people other
than those who have actually made
start In the planning Of home, who
consider the relation between the
much-discussed thigh cost of living"
and the question of relative cost be-
tween owning and renting home.
During the strenuous period, the
''bread and butter Garner" will proba-
bly, concentrate his attention so strenu-
ously upon ways and means Of ,increas-
ing his income that many of the items
Of ''outgo" are not given sufficient
analysis. There will probably be an
occasional conference with the good.

Is such persistent expense that varia-
tons In the cost Of ratlons are en-
phatically noticeable. Various other
temporary savings are resorted to. and
that is as far as the analysis goes.
First, consider the fact, In connec-
ton with the renting Of the home. that
the owner Of the building is living UNI
der the same conditions as the renter.
He may, by his manner of living, vary
certain of the conditions which under
another manner Of living appear to
place him In position of advantage,
but fundamentally his living expenses
are on the same basis as those of the
renter. II the owner Of property en-
counters an increase in living ex-
penses, he viii naturally expect to
meet 1t, all or In part, by an increase
in his income from this property.
When property is successfully rented,
the rent must include interest on the
total investment, taxes and all other
assessments levied against the proper
ty, an allowance for depreciation and
an amount equal to the average expen-
dlture for repairs and improvements.

The owner is benefited by any increase
in the value of the property. If there
Is any appreciate increase In the
value Of the property, the owner Is
likely to feel that he is entitled to in
terest on the actual value of the prop
erty rather than on the amount of his
original investment. II he does not
receive this increase. his income is
less than he would receive by selling
the property at the increased figure
and putting this amount out at the
same rate of interest which the rent
Is figured on.
Saving In Owning Home.
Is there saving brought about by
owning the home rather than renting

considered, the answer Is syes."
Money invested In the home does
not pay interest, but 1t eliminates the
payment Of rent. For given piece
Of property on which the home Is built.
the saving Of rent which would be paid
must be greater than the amount Of
interest which might be obtained from
the money invested In the home. In
order that a financial gain be made.
An increase in the value Of the proper

value reduces the saving or wipes 1t

WIZARD WITH FIGURES

Joseph 8. Mccoy, statistical expert
connected with the treasury depart
ment, is by education and training an
expert mathematician. But much Of
the most valuable work he accom-
plishes for the government is less due
to his mathematical knowledge than
to his rare ability In utilizing the SIM
pie, elemental, commonplace facts that
everybody knows.
One Of his most important duties
is to tell the revenue committees of
congress how much money may be de-
rived from any proposed taxation. In
this work Of forecasting Mccoy has
done wonderful things. For example,
he estimated in 1918. that the income
tax from corporations for the year
ended June 30. 1915. would be about
s39,000,000 He came within about STA
600 Of absolute accuracy. Every year
he makes an estimate of what the total
census Of the country win be several
years ahead. In 1901 he figured the

Though the world was ringing re-

In Italy. Too short a time in supreme

recent statement says that "the presi.
dent makes 1t plain that he does not
pretend to suggest how voters shall
vote for different candidates" but the
letters that he has written usually
contain a positive declaration against
particular man and there seems to
sbe no doubt that the intention is to
defeat that candidate. For the most
part presidential letters Of this kind
have good deal of effect upon Office

will probably be true to a great extent
in several states, but in others the

The submarine warfare on the
coast Of the United States has
become serious enough to arouse
strong determination to get these
under-sea demons and prevent them
from continuing the depredations that
have proved so annoying. although
comparatively Of small actual damage.
There Is deep-seated suspicion that
the U-boats have been receiving infor-
nation from the mainland of the Unit
ed States and that the persons who
are supplying 1t are well informed In
regard to the disposition Of the Ameri-
can naval forces. Renewed efforts are
being made to ferret out the spies who
seem to be lodged where they have
access to the best guarded information
possessed by the navy. The U-boats
bob up. in places where there are no
naval patrols near, and are able to
sink the small defenseless vessels with
ont any danger to themselves.
While 1t Is true that the navy has
been engaged In great work. that
we have sent large number Of yes
sells to augment the British feet, and
that a very large number Of destroy
ers are operating In English waters;
II is also true that there Is large
force along the Atlantic coast. but It
does not yet seem to be SO distributed
as entirely to stop the submarines.
But the naval force has done splendid
work In protecting the transports and
the most important ships that sail be-
tween our shores and Europe.

There Is still great problem about
handling German sympathizers In this
country. Many people believe that the
only way to handle the pro-German In
the United States Is to shoot him, but
that Is not altogether feasible; be-
sides, II is hard to differentlate the de-
grees Of German support and German
sympathy. There are Germans in this
country who are calling themselves
American citizens who stlll maintain
that Germany did right In Belgium be-
cause It was a military necessity"
Men whose minds are warped to that
extent should be classed As German
sympathlzers and informed. One OF
the reasons. we are in this war Is be-
cause a large proportion OF our peo-
pie were Mortified by the brutalities
and butcheries Of the Huns in both
Belgium and France.

No doubt in these days when there
Is such a demand for young and active
men for service In the army and navy
and an Increasing demand for labor,
the so-called servant problem" Is
quite an acute thing In many house
holds throughout the country. Prob
ably 1t hits Washington harder than
any other city. Here the people have
been accustomed to negro women as
servants In the house and also to ne
gro men for various kinds Of work
about the home. The draft has taken
quite a number Of negro, men, but the
demand for labor Of all kinds Is great
er in Washington that any other part
Of the country. Negro wemen are rum
ming elevators: many Of them have
employment Of one kind o. another IN
the hundreds Of extra Buildings and
Offices which have been occupied by
the government since the war began.
Wherever women meet in these days
they are sure to engage ia discus
sion Of the servant problem. and there
are more women doing their own
household work at the present time
than was ever before known 10 the No.
