BRITAIN
 TO BUILD HOMES

London, March -CCorrespond- ence of The Associated Press) The government plan to build 3O0,OOO houses for workmen within the nexc few years apparently has aroused the British public to demand abolition Of the archaic English fireplace. and substitution of the American steam heating system for homes. The de mand is voiced by numerous contrib utors to the London newspapers.
 If had my way I would at once send out d commission of British ar chitects to America. and Canada to learn there the elements of the busi- ness of building houses and equipping them," declares one writer.
 "One fundamental defect runs through practically all British houses of whatever grade,' he continues. They depend for their heating on fires. Now the English fire is an ad- mirabIe invention from every aspect except that of utility and cleanliness It is cheerful, oompantonabfe. soporif- ic eentin entaI-an altogether delight ful thing to have in a. room. It has, however, two vital drawbacks, does not heat and It Is aboninably dirty.
 T mean that it does not heat prop erly. Its radius is so limited thai over half an average English draw ingroom is not used in winter time To move twelve feet away from the fireplace is to leave the Tropic of Cap ricorn and enter the Arctic Circle while as for sitting comfortably near the window, the thing is inconceiva- ble.
 Tn the second place, even within it's ueager radius a fire never does its work thoroughly. It never warns you all over. One side is grilled, the other is underdone. Your face Is aglow, your back a. ripple of icicles. D
 The writer called attention to tho acknowledged fact that in spite of the labor of carrying coal for grate fires, fully 80 per cent. of the heat is wasted, going up the chimney.
 Could anything be more barbarous, more expensive or more inefficient?'' asks the writer. We shall never have either sanity or comfort in our homes until we adopt the central heating system (steam or hot air furnaces) spread warmth throughout the house, not in patches, and burn wood on the hearth to supply the ele- ment of cheerfulness with a minimum of trouble and dust"

IRISH CRITIClSE
 HOUSING PLANS

Dublin, March 29.-- .--CCorrespOndence Of The Associa.toI Press) -Disappoint- ment Is expressed in Belfast as well as ir Dublin over the policy adopted by the government to solve the prob lem of providing homes for the peo- pie. In Eugland the housing schemes are said to be well advanced In Ireland, though the need is believed here to be greater than in England, nothing has been done and the plan proposed by the government is crit icised as unsatisfactory and not like ly to produce the results desired.
 In England the local authorities are authorized to impose q penny tax to meet the loss on building schemes and the state will provide funds neces- sary to cover tho loss not made good by the tax.
 In Ireland there Is to be no penny rate. The local authorities will have to borrow from the banks the money necessary for l0ui1ding the houses. The Irish Local Government Board, 0 body appointed by tho Castle and not regarded as responsible to Irish opinion, will determine what is q fair rent for the houses and the treasury will pay part of the differences be- GWGGn lllb rent ptL4u t1y L1iS NCllttllL dllu the amount necessary to meet the cost of living.
 It is considered likely that the To- cal authorities In Ireland will find # difficult to borrow this money from the banks, as these local authorities will be largely Sim F'ein bodies,which probably will treat the Local Govern ment Board as an English authority to be challenged and obs;ruCted. Com seqUently the prospects of success for the Irish housing plan arc not re- garded as hopeful.
 A good deal of the unrest in Dublin is attributed to the condition of tho Dublin sllIms. T'wenuy-one thousand families, about one-t third of the pop ulaton, live in one room tenements. The government inspector has Te- ported that about S,OOO,OOo pounds is needed for housing.
 It Is not believed possible that Dublin could borrow eight millions under the scheme proposed Belfast is a. comparatively new city and has not the same slum problem. But it has an increasing population and a great shortage of houses. It wants 100000 pounds for the schemes it immediately contemplates and eventu- ally will require 5OO0.OOO pounds. It has not the same hostility to the To- cal Government Board that Dublin has, but it IS about equally disap- pointed with the proposals of the government.

 being should be made with close dis crimination. Before long the Victory Loan campaign will begin in earnest
