Solving the Housing Problem

Charles A Myers, former Indianapolis
newspaper man, now president of the Dallas
Housing Company of Dallas, Tex, in an inter-
view upon visit to Indianapolis, explained the
details of the plan adopted in his city to solve
the housing problem. The dearth of houses in
Richmond has become municipal problem of
!grave concern committee is trying to find
lsoution now
The Logansport Pharos Reporter gives the
following summary of the Dallas Plan:
''The company is the biggest factor in solving
the housing difficulty, he said and is a protege
uof the Chamber of Commerce, having been form
led by 200 business men who subscribed 100000
to its fund. Out of the fund the company builds
model homes for citizens in large numbers and
hen sells them at cost. No person who owns his
wn home can buy one of the houses and all pur
,asers are required to live in the houses one
VAR. This eliminates speculation.
THE payment system works as follows, Mr..
yers said: A man buys So 500 house and pays
500 down. The $4,000 balance is divided into
20 notes, the first payable at the end of five
ars and the second at the end of fifty months.
nus the monthly payment due is $50 per month,
It'll interest to begin with of $40 on the second
SO on the first note. Such house would
.ent for $50 in Dallas. The second note is paid
off at the end of fifty months and the man has
eight months of the five years to make what pay
nents he can on the first If he can not pay this
off at the time it is due it is easy for him to OBJ
ain new mortgage.
'"Our system is to sell the first note to bank
Or trust company, and we have no trouble in do
Sng it, with the result that we have created re-
7olving fund that enables us to build new
houses all the time"

John felt lower rib crack beneath
Carver's terrible embrace, but his iron

In confinement and deprived Of food

The DOones, though so openly set
at defiance, bided their time. With
spring the roads were open and one
moonlight night, with an arrogance
worthy of Carver, they attacked Ploy-
ers BarroWs in force. John Rid,
nothing daunted, defended his fireside
and loved ones with spirit, meeting
the attackers squarely with a handful
OF men and putting them to speedy
flight. A murderous attack by the
Doones was bad business enough, but
to Johns honest soul a worse trouble
followed.
His Lorna was discovered to be no
true Doone, but the niece Of the great

But this was no time for repining,
for the ill-starred rebellion of Mon

innocent though he was, in it's tolls.
But all come to happy issue when
John, summoned to London, frustrat-

captured the attackers, and turned
them over for punishment to the ter

Now at last the great day dawned
for John and Lorna and they made

Scarcely were the sacred words of the
service pronounced when a shot rang
through the church Lorna, her dark
eyes dropping, her wedding gown
stained with blood, sank into her hus-

the agony Of that moment and yet he
seemed strangely calm. Only Carver
DOOne could have done this dastardly
deed and as John dashed off in hot
pursuit he swore that the world was
too narrow a place to harbor him and

his jaded horse there was no escape.

THE TRAIL OF THE SERPENT

From the New York Herald.
The American Congress contains no
more expert chaser of the money devil
than Representative ] Thomas Heflin,
of the Fifth district, of Alabama.
Now that Mr.. Heflin has set out to
discover the WHEREABOUTS of German
money in this league of nations fight
all persons who believe in the Ameri-
canization of the covenant--at least, in
shearing that document of it's un-Amer-
icanism-will wish him godspeed in
his quest,
There are distinct indications of the
rail of the German serpent in and
around this league situation. So far
there has been no evidence of it's pres
ence in the camp where Mr.. Helm,
at first blush. places it. If he pur-
sues his chase with fidelity, however,
Mr.. Heflin may find where it is and
whittier it leads.

With Birmingham's rapid growth
the demand for music of artistic merit

lack of large hall, high prices had
to be charged.
When the projected auditorium is
completed the Music Study club sh1uld

the Chicago orchestra.
Grand opera will be presented here
