MINERS and OPERATORS May REACH EARLY AGREEMENT
Shortage in US.
of Million Homes

WASHINGTON, Nov. q. - The
United States is now more than one
million homes shot Of the require
ments of its population.
Housing conditions are going from
bad to worse, for there has been only
a slight resumption of building since
the armistice was signed. High labor
costs, inflated raw material prices,
business uncertainty, and export de-
mand are the reasons assigned for
the drag"
Washington is a conspicuous suf-
ferer from lack of adequate housing,
but wartime congestion is gradually
being relieved, and conditions in in
dustrial cities are causing more con-
cern to officials than those in the
Capital.
"a national housing program will
have to be adopted at the next Con-
gress," said one housing expert to-
dey. ~ do not mean that the gov
ernment will have to build houses,
but it must do something to remedy
existing evils--even if it is nothing
more than placing an export embargo
on building materials until the pres
ent shortage is relieved"

The question has been asked num-

the hiccoughs among imbibers of blind

concoctions served as "bonded dope"
while others contend that the diaph-

tinues to float about despite the fact

Large Crowds
Hear D. B. Watts
at Auditorium,

Evangelist Watts in his lecture at
the Opera House last night on "The
Second Coming Of Christ" dwelt on
the certainty Of His coming, the man.
ner Of His coming and the object Of
His coming,
Mr.. Watts denied the modern doe
trine that Christ would come quietly
and steal away all the good people
and leave the wicked here, saying
that the Scriptures plainly state that
Christ will descend with shout with
the voice of the Archangel, and not
only will all the living know it, but
the sleeping saints will also come
forth from their grave. He said:
"As to the certainty of Christ's
coming, we will read His own words
in the fourteenth chapter of John.
4 go to prepare a place for you; J
will come again, and receive you unto
myself Here is a direct promise
from Jesus that He will come againI
His coming is just as certain as His
going away, for He said, If / go
| will come again If He comes aci
cording to His promise, the time will
surely be when that coming is neal
at hand, and we finally reach the very
day Of His appearing"
Evangelist Watts gave the follow
ing scriptural references to prove
hat Christ's coming will not be in
secret: Rev. IL; l Thes. 4: 1917
Math. 1927; Math. 24:30 and Luk)

wards to gain almost at will. After
the score they tightened down and
the boys from Greene county could
do nothing. The last half of the
game brought out some stellar play

near the middle Of the field and Meth
er side getting an opportunity to
score or even to attempt field goal

en- in the last few minutes of play and
the local High team was quick to take
advantage of this opportunity to tit
the score.
The Tennessee back field showed tt
excellent advantage, Williams, Gro
we'll and King showing to particular
advantage. Godsey also played tt
advantage on the offensive. On thu
defensive Scott, King and Crowel
