HOUSES WILL BE
 EVEN MORE SCARCE
Dearth Of Buildings Causes
 Shortage, Expert Says
(By Henry Beckett, New York.)

(By Henry Beckett, New York.)
 Houses will be so scarce and rents so high that labor will leave here next winter and the citys business, indus try and prestige will suffer. That's the New York state reconstruction commissions forecast, unless the city through some agency builds inexpen- siya houses on a large scale.
 Not rent profiteering but a real dearth of homes, is the housing trou- ble, this commission finds.
 It is argued that, although building costs won't drop to pre-war levels soon, it's possible to get fair returns on average rentals by extensive build ing on cheap land, close enough to in dustry, and utilizing expert experi enced advice on finance, design build ing and management.
 Landlords in many cases were found to be justified in raising their rents because of the increased cost of the management. The only way to meet the situation is to build more houses at once," Chairman Abram I. Ell<ins reported.
 Mayor Hylan's committee on rent profiteering has camp site lists, where families may pitch tents-if the worst is yet to come.
 Despite authoritys conclusion exon erating him, the landlord has in cases, raised rents here from $35 to $10O a month, 1855 per cent, and from $2S to $32 to $35 to $40, in six months.
 Herbert R. Limburg, attorney, wants to enlist financial interests in $10, 100000 fund to build homes
 Labor men plan a union of 5,000,- GOO tenants, to be affiliated with the Am erican Federation of Labor, strike where there's rent profiteering, and ,promote state law to let municipalities build and operate tenements.
 The state reconstruction commis- sion, examined 34 square blocks in Manhattan, Bronx and Brooklyn. The survey covers 35,000 apartments, housing 175, ,000 Tn the sixties, east side, in a single block, there's just one vacancy in $50 apartments in bad re- pair. with rents increased 15 and 25 per cent.
 Congestion is worse in districts where the old type of "~-7'o''~0 pre- yails Vacancies are under one per
