NEW CRUISER IS
 WHITE ELEPHANT

LONDON,-(By MaiD-The first of new type of British cruiser, the Raleigh, launched a few days ago, is expected to give the navy trouble to find her suitable work.
 The Raleigh is of 9,75O tons with a speed of 35 knots She was designed to hunt raiders such as the Moewe and the Wolf. She was given guns larger than the guns usually placed on light cruisers so she might be able to outrange any commerce raider the enemy might send out Now that there are no German raiders, it is conceded by the navy that she is much in the nature of a white elephant, being too costly for a light cruiser and too light for service with battle cruiser squadron.
 The Raleigh is armed with 75 inch .uns, provided with an underwater
 bulge" which designed to make her torpedo proof, and is so divided that any two of her main compartments nay be flooded without endangering the vessel. She has anti-aircraft guns and burns oil fuel only.

 GRAVE SHORTAGE

BERLIN, lBy MaiD Berlin faces winter with little or no coal and consequent freezing conditions. lack of electricity. gas and lighting and in addition a shortage of dwellings,
 Up 10 now the government has in most cases contented itself with ap- paaing to house owners who have more than enough room 10 yoIun- teer some space to those without shelter. The replies have been eN- -ardingIy few, and those in power are seriously considering an adapta- ton of the system in vogue in Buda- pest and Munich during the soviet

 NeukoeIln, a suburb of Berlin, has attempted to help solve the situa,
 n by building emergency houses.
 An other suburb Gruenau. proposes To connscate the dwellings of bacheI ors. Other suburbs plan to confs, cate, for the winter at least the homes of summer guests that stand rmptv all winter, and fill them with the homeless. One suburb has already taken this step
 The city of Berlin has erected iG the Tempelhofer Chausse district a model house of clay, and will dupIi, cate if it is found that they are prac, ticable. The dwelling authorities plan on the erection, as soon as pos, +ibIe, of $500 permanent residences of modest dir ensions.
 The dwelling authorities plan one and two family houses with garden, and larger family houses with a mum, Der of apartments and tiny gar, den to each dwelling.
 Average building costs are estimat, ed at 412 times the peace rate.
 The government has already ob- tained control of some 1000 empty stores, garrets, work plants barracks and temporary structures to shelter those in pressing need. A total of 2o,0000OO marks has thus far been voted or raised for these emergency measures.
 Swarms of people from the occupied territories are arriving in Berlin, increasing the need faster than. mea- sures can be taken to alleviate it. The dwelling association issues warnings repeatedly against the influx into Der lin, but without much effect.
