Some of the chief reasons given for the existence of this state of affairs were: First the vested title to land; second, long groundrent leases; and third, the construction of rows of ten- ement houses which contained no per manent dividing walls. Any of these causes it is stated would prevent the workman desiring a home from get ting an absolute, permanent (fee sim ple) title to both land and to building.
 Other reasons assigned for the pro- nounced scarcity of home owning among the British working , classes were general lack of surplus for home investment, and the fact that many Workmen did not desire to be tied up to any one industrial estab- lishment by virtue of owning a home

like his American brother he does not appear to entertain any pronounced desire to own his own home. Of the 4,00O, 900 workmen claimed by Great Britain, and which includes a large number of clerical men and women in railroad, telegraph, telephone, hotel, and even active clerical men in indus trial plants, "only a negligible num- Der own their homes.' This number is put approximately at 100000 by labor officials. Governm ent officials claimed they had no definite figures to show the number of laboring men who want to buy homes, while real estate agents pronounced it to be so insignificant that they "did not even equip their offices to handle this class Of investor"

ENGLISH HOUSING
 PROBLEM OUTLINED
Employers Industrial Commis-
 sion Makes Report

Washington, May 9.-Sharply de- fined differences in the views of the average American and English work lngman on the question of owning his own home, and also in the hous- ing policies of their respective govern ments, are brought out in report recently rendered by the employers Industrial commission of the depart ment of labor upon its return to this country after several weeks spent in Investigating labor conditions in Eng land and other European countries.
 That the British government is alive to the importance attached to the question of industrial housing in its relation to the prevalent labor un- rest is shown by the appointment last year of 8 royal commission to study the subject The report of this com- mission to the effect that bad and in- sufficient housing played large part in producing unrest and dissatisfac- ton among the working populace served to focus the attention of the whole country upon the problem. Up to 1915 actual construction under the various housing acts in effect since 1890 was slow, the figures gathered
 
 1911, 464 houses; 1912, 1,021 houses; 1913, 1880 houses; 1914, 3,335 houses; 1915, 4,408 houses
 Though the British government now figures the urgent need of about 300,000 houses for laboring men, none of the English housing acts seems to have for it's aim the idea of encouraging the workman to own his own home. On the contrary, they are almost exclusively rental propositions. Even the reconstruction measures of underwriting the present-day cost of building these 30O,0OO houses as op- nosed to their value seven years hence does not aim at making the laboring and clerical man or woman a vital mart of the community through per- sonal ownership of home This elab- crate system, however, is, in the opin- lon of the commission, well worth serious study on the part of housing experts in this country.
 As for the individual British work rna.n. the report points out that un-

Copenhagen, March 29.-The Ger
man government at Weimar has re-
ceived from the allied high command
demand for permission for Polish
troops to land ut Danzig and to march
through German territory to Poland,
according to a dispatch received there
from Welmar For several weeks ne.
gotiatiOns have been In progress to
send the three Polish divisions In
France under Gen. Haller to Poland.
1t was proposed to land them at Dan
zig and then send them into Poland,
but Germany objected to this plan
and offered other ports as substitutes.
These Polish divisions saw fighting
in France and are fully armed and
equipped. The German attitude against
their landing at Danzig has been that
the Poles might remain there and hold
that port, which the Poles claim us
their outlet to the Baltic.
Berlin.-Gen. Nudant, representing
Marshal Foch, on Wednesday submit
ted a note to the German government
demanding a passage through Danzlg
for the Polish divisions under Gen.
Haller, which are n part of the allied
army, and permission for their further
march to Poland to maintain order.
The note added that any refusal
would be regarded as breach of the
armistice.
The German government, after ex-
haustive deliberations by party lead
ers, laid down its standpoint in
reply which asserts that. according to
the armistice treaty, 1t was only
obliged to grant the allies free access
to the Vistula to maintain order In
territories Of the former Russian en-
pire. The note refers to incidents
during the journey Of Ignace Jan Pad
crcwski, the polish premier, "who,
grossly violating the hospitality ac-
corded him OH German soil, gave the
signal for revolt and civil war. and
who, when he was In Danzlg In De-
cember. 1918. said. If the Polish divi-
sions from France and Italy should be
In DanzIg, then Danzig and all West
Prussia would be Polish"
