apartments are needed throughout the

except war essentials that the demand
for homes is now the greatest in the
history of the country. officials stated.
Reports up to April 10 show this de-
mand 10 being met only slowly, proba-
bly, due to the uncertainty of the
prices of nearly all building materials.
Returns have been received from
several hundred localities by the pub
lie works and construction division Of
the labor department and in every one
Of them, except few where houses
were built by the government for war
needs, a shortage of housing is report
ed. Complete returns have not yet
been received and the one million es-
innate may be slightly increased when
all are in.
$4,000 FAMILIES IN NEED.
New York City shows the greatest
need Of housing, shelter for $4,000
families being needed The greatest
demand there is for modern apart
ments and tenements. In Philadelphia,
$4,000 are needed. Detroits figure is
10000.
These figures are not much higher
than in most other localities when
compared with the population.
Before the war between 800, 900 and
100000 dwellings and apartments were
built yearly, but during the war the
annual figure, exclusive Of those built
by the government, was cut down to
about $4,000 for the whole country.
This situation, with the fact that peo-
pie enriched by war wages are de-
manding more accommodations is re-
sponsible for crowded conditions, off,

Efforts are being made by the de-
partment to get this vast amount Of
building under way at once.
"Own your own home" campaigns
are being conducted in many cities
with the view of having people put
their higher war wages into building
new homes. Opinion, however. seems
to be that prices must be>lowered and
stabilized before much Of the building

To assist in home building the la
Dor department plans to ask the next
congress to establish system of home
loan banks to loan money for building
homes, just as the farm loan banks
now loan money on farms.
A tentative draft of a bill provides
that the home loan banks shall be
formed out of the now private home
loan and building associations When
ever 10 of these associations In one
district with aggregate assets of not
less than 100000 agree to associate
themselves and accept the regulations,
one of the home loan banks shall be
formed. Each bank shall have a paid
in capital of 100000 and the building

the department are asking that they
be given all the stock. The whole plan
would be under a national, board of
five members appointed by the presi-
dent. Eleven home bank districts are
proposed.
