"HOME" MEANS "LANDLORD AND RENT"

The United States has fought all
her wars to preserve the home" and
yet probably 60 per cent of her people
are tenants. This was the text Sc
lected the other day by United States
Senator William N. Calder of New
York in an address before the New
York Real Estate associations conven-
tion urging the necessity of a national
campaign for the creation of homes.
He said:
"The object of each of our wars
has been, in the last analysis, to pre-
serve the home. Yet we find that to
the majority of people in this country
home means little more than a dwell
ing for which they are paying rent.
WHAT is worse in the situation is that
the percentage Of these rent payers is
growing.
"In 1890 we were advised that 50
per cent of the people in America
lived under the rental system, in 1910
that the percentage had increased to
90, and probably the census of 1920 W

Southwestern Rice Crop
Loss Put at SI7,25O,OW

Beaumont, Tex.-Rice farmers In
Texas, Louisiana and Arkan-
sas will suffer losses of 1,500 900
bags over estimates made sixty days
ago, according to E. A. Eignus, man.
ager of the Southern Rice Growers
Association, who recently received re-
ports from the three states on actual
yield.
Mr.. Eignus declared the loss this
year viii amount to as much as the
entire crop was worth Is years ago.
Using $11.5O per bag as basis, he
figures the farmers of the three states
lost this year s17,250.O00, or an even
million dollars more than the entire
crop brought Is years ago.
It is said the yield OF rice thrashed
since the recent heavy rains has been
very unsatisfactory.

D'ANNUNZIO: "DICTATOR OF FlUME"

Grabriele d'Annunzio, dictator of
Fiume," surely has had a long pose
under the limelight. He was popular
~ credited with a large share in
pushing Italy into the war. He made
a name for himself as an aviator. And
when he took possession of Fiume all
the world looked on in amazement.
The Fiume adventure Of the fear
less d'Annunzio has been dubbed
"Garibaldian" and as such glorifed.
Judging by superficial appearances, in
fact, 1t bears some resemblance to the
famous expedition of 1860. But the
likeness goes no further than mere
appearances. If we compare dAnnun-
Zio's expedition with Garibaldf's we
soon discover a capital difference be-
tween them.
The one of 1860 was prepared and
accomplished by handful Of private
citizens free of military duty and
with the approval of the govern
ment." The Fiume expedition has
been conceived and carried out by f
