The housing committee in England
headed by Sir Tudor Walters has re-
ported after hearing the testimony of
so experts and 1877 other witnesses
that 100000 houses should be built
each year in England until the short
age of 100000 houses estimated now
to exist has been made up. The com
mittee fully recognizes the services
rendered by private enterprise.
According to information received
by the Division of Public Works and
Construction Development of the De-
partment of labor. the British housing
cimmittee recommends complete
survey of housing needs as the first
step. The committee holds that local
authorities should be held responsible
for sewers and roads.

SAYS FIRST Cr WILSON'S
POINTS HAS BEEN LOST

Washington, D. c., Feb. 4.-Clinton
w. Gilbert, we'll known Washington
newspaper correspondent. is in Paris
representing the Philadelphia Evening
| Ledger and a string of United States
newspapers at the peace conference.
In an article copyrighted by the Pub
lie Ledger, Mr.. Gilbert says the very
first of President Wilson's famous
IA points--open covenants of peace
openly arrived at"-has gone by the
board as a result of a recent decision
of the peace conference. to which
President Wilson and the American
delegates agreed.
THE statement regarding publicity
of the nations in the conference
amounts to defense of the policy to
secrecy" says Mr.. Gilbert. TT is fol
lowed by the concession that at some
meetings the press representatives.
three from America, 1t is understood
may be present.
What this amounts to depends upon
how many meetings will be held in
the open and how many in executive
session There is certainly no inclin-
alton disclosed to afford any real
publicity.
THE journalists are likely to be in
vited in on days when nothing is to
happen Nothing was said in the
statement about ending the censor
ship, though that is the greatest OBJ
stacle to the peoples Of the world
knowing the truth about the confer
ence.
1.-THE statement bears marks of pres
ident Wilson's authorship.
1.-The number Of press representativ-
es to be admitted seems to be dictated
by the fact that there are three Amer
ican press associations and that cor
responds with the number president
Wilson has taken with him on his
travels
The argument IN the statement
follows the line of president Wilson's
argument when senator Borah pro-
posed open sessions during the treaty
making by the senate.
Friends OF president Wilson main
tain he is opposed to secrecy; lik-
wise. friends CT Premier Lloyd George
are similarity active. The part of the
Paris press that is friendly to the
government says that premier Glenn
enceau did not suggest the gag.
ut is obviously impossible to find
out who did propose it and how the
heads of the several nations stood.
Even if It were possible to learn that.
It would be impossible to disclose this
information under the present restric.
tiOns.
"The probability is that all the heads
of the several governments were com
mitted in their minds to the old meth
DDS of secret diplomacy and. having
practised them throughout the war
adopted the old secrecy rule without
consideration and with little concep-
ton of the storm that the secrecy
would precipitate."

Must Take Securities
F0r Goods. Du Bois Saws

BY reason of the much longer and
greater strain on the European nations
during the war America must be will
ing to accept payment for its products
sold abroad in securities, and not in
money or goods, according to c. G.
Du Bols, president of the Western
Electric Company.
IRON a purely selfish standpoint" ,"
says Mr. Du Bois, "America as a
creditor nation wants other nations to
prosper so they car buy goods. can
pay the interest on their debts to US,
and can eventually liquidate the prin-
clpal. And as to our domestic situa-
ton, we have to remember that our
war activities created employment for
every one, and to that extent made
for generally prosperous conditions.
1T remains to be seen to what ex-
tent such prosperity was merely tenn
porary. Even while it lasted some of
1T was more apparent than real. Wages
increased as the cost Of living went up
and the cost of living in turn increased
as the wages that constitute most of
the cost Of every article went up This
process, as every one knows, can cr.-
ate no prosperity for us as a whole, for
though it has affected many individuals
favorably, many others have been COM
PEELED to seriously curtail"
Conditions in America, Mr. Dp Bois
believes, are so much better than in
any OF the war stricken countries that
we need not fear any important move
ment here toward any form of anarchy.

Has speculation been overdone?
Many Wall Street persons believe
it has, and they hold consequently
that the bull market has reached
the crest and must soon begin to
slide backward. 1t may be that they
are right. Certainly there never yet
has been long sustained movement
in the stock market in which prices
have not gone either too high or too
low, depending on the direction
travelled. 1t may be that they have
been carried too far up on the cur
rent movement. But if you ask
those who expound this view for
evidence they will almost invariably
point to relatively few issues in
with speculation has been wildly
extravagant, and in which there are
surface indications of bald manipu-
lation. If the market consisted
solely of such stocks the argument
would perhaps be unanswerable.
But the market is made up of more
than merely few oil and tobacco
and similar pyrotechnical things.
There is another opinion which has
not little following in the Street;
namely, that, save for the few
"specialties," the prices of which
have got absurdly out of line with
intrinsic values, the full effects Of
imitation have not yet been ex-
pressed in stock prices, and that,
moreover, there is reasonably good
prospect for greater prosperity in
the future than was enjoyed even
during the war period. In support
cf this view it is pointed out that
even now the first wave of a flood

also stated that the average of

Need Is Passing
Their need is immediate and every
days delay makes their situation more
dltfcult. Their pressing needs are for
food, raw materials, coal and ma
chinery. These can be supplied only
through extension of credit on our
part, as they have neither the gold nor
the goods with which to make i'm
mediate payment. Food for the hun
CRY and work for the idle must be pro-
vlded If they are to maintain stable
political conditions and begin produc-
tion. These bald facts are obvious to
all who have studied the situation, but
failure to appreciate their bearing
upon our own affairs has apparently
delayed action on our part"
Mr.. Sabin stressed the point that
American banking institutions cannot
handle the European credit demands
without the cooperation of the gov
ernment and American manufact turers

Prices Continue to Go Up, De.
spite Government Action

OTTAWA, Ont, July 31.-Despite
government efforts to reduce prices the
cost of living in Canada continues to
soar. The high prices were cited as
the cause of unrest in every district,
according to Investigators of the recent
strikes througout the Dominion.
Government officials stated that the
high cost of necessities was responsi.
bic for the dissatisfaction of thousands
OF conservative workingmen. They also
asserted this subject gave radicals an
excuse for trying out more ambitious
schemes.
The average cost of twenty-nine
staple foods in sixty cities in June was
SlS.72, as compared with 1888 in May,
official statistics show In June, 1914,
the average was $7.35.
