Million Homes
Needed in u. S.

and high cost of materials prevented
the construction of houses which the
natural growth of population rendered
necessary. Then came Secretary Nc
Adoo's appeal for the restriction of
building operations to minimum dur
ing the war. For time building vir-
tually stopped. Funds that otherwise
might have gone into homes, business
blocks, and factories were invested in
Liberty bonds.
Nor have some of the causes which
checked building operations disappear
ed with the war. Materials are al
most as scarce and in many cases more
costly than they were during the strug-
gle. Whatever reduction OF wages
may have occurred in some of the
countries, there is none in the United
States. and as result there appears
to be no definite program for the
prompt and speedy erection of homes
in the United States.
