Congress May
Build Houses.
Calder Says
Suggests Spending of Mil

Congress may find it necessary to ap.
propriate millions of dollars to build
houses and apartments if the present
housing shortage is not relieved by
Legislative measures, Senator William
NJ. Calder told the Marquette Club last
night at the Commodore.
Senator Calder, who is chairman of
the Senate Committee on Reconstruct
tlon, said that personally he was op.
posed to the governments going into
the building business, but that the hous-
ing crisis is so seriously affecting the
health and welfare of the country that
it may have to follow the example of
France and England.
IL am opposed to it because if the
government should be compelled to
build on large scale all building by
nrivate interests would STOP" said Sem
ator Calder. "In France the government
has gone into the building business tc

Of the cost of any building erected tc

Il do not believe we will be driver
to that extremity in this country, but
the fact rem mains that We may be driver
to it. In the last four years in this
country we have not built as many
| houses as We built either in 1915 OIL
/ 1914. The 1920 census shows that. foI
the first time in our history. our city
population is greater than our country
population. The drift is definitely

This is having grave effect on tho
health Of our people. Health Commits
sioner Royal s. Copeland recently at
tended convention of health official.
I called to consider the effect of tn.
housing shortage. They adopted reso
ing is causing an increase of juvenil'
mortality and q decrease in health
morale and morality"
Senator Calder said he would urE'
Congress to pass a bill to exempt from
taxation all mortgages up to $40 00
as one means of stimulating d nation
wide building program. He said he be
lieved this would obviate the necessit,
of Congress going into the buldn,
business. The creation Of a housin,
bureau in the Department Of Com
merce, which would act as d clearin,
house for builders, will BE asked for
he said.
Denounces Combinations
Disclosures made by the Lockwood
committee, Senator Calder declared
had removed one stumbling block il
the way Of revival of building.

Martens also declared that easily
the same amount in orders which were
being negotiated were Cancelled alse
with the same order.
How about the Vanderlip conces
sion, Is that affected by your govern
ment's instructions 2" Martens was
asked.
The Vanderlip concessions" he re-
pied. were not negotiated through
thls office. They We're arranged di-
rectly between Mr.. Nanderlip and off

affects the Nanderlip contracts, al

action may be contemplated by Moscow
III regard to them. In any event, it is
obvious that no sort of commercial re-
lations can be negotiated between the
United States and Soviet Russia sc

permitted to maintain rcprcsentativs

Won't Name Another Envoy
"Will the Soviet government send an
other representative in your place? p
the deported envoy was asked
The Soviet government" replied the
envoy, will not send any represen Ia
tive to the United States at this time
The decision of the Department o1
Labor in declaring l was to be de
ported was aimed directly against the
Soviet government and not against my
self personally. That decision, there
