MOVEMENT FOR
MORE HOUSING
FACILITIES ON

Salem is awakening to the gravity Of
the housing problem more and more, and
definite action toward solving it is now
shaping. At almost all meetings the
last week of civic and social organiza-
tions the housing situation was taken
up, and in most instances some action
toward its solution decided upon.
At the meeting Of the Commercial
club last night, which was attended by
many prominent and influential men of
the city, the proposal that the CONNER
cial club members bind themselves in
corporation to build more homes was
heard. This could be done to advantage,
it was pointed out.
The board of directors, realizing that
something must be done to meet the in
eyitable influx Of people to Salem this
winter and spring, discussed the pur-
chase of certain property near Salem.
The tentative plans are to erect many
modern bungalows on this land.
The North Salem Improvement asss-
citation, knowing that more and better
homes are the need of that section OF
the, city to meet the expansion of Salem
toward the north, is also taking up the
matter. Its aims are to interest re-
sponsible organizations to build and
maintain homes Of beauty in that part
of the city.
AT the next meeting Of the Salem Ro
tary club, next Wednesday noon at the
Hotel Marion, the housing situation will
be investigated. Members of this or
ganization, speaking for themselves, Are
firm in the conviction that Salem must
build.
Friday evening, at s o'clock, a public
mess meeting, to which all are invited
will be held at the Commercial clul
auditorium, Catlin & Linn building, LIB
erty street The housing situation wiz
be gone into in all phases. Men rep
lresenting building firms, building ma
terial producers, and real estate organ
izations will speak.
The Professional Business Women'
club, which met last night to form plani
for its organization, also took up thu
housing problem. They voted to co
operate with the men in solving thu
problem; and the members were asket
to make known any practical ideas the,
might have to reach a solution.
