directly to the matter of finances.
There is plenty of money being in
vested, but it is not going into the
real estate field. 1t is, going into
other fields where the interest rates
are higher than 6 per cent. And II
is going into fields where 1t will be
kept for many years. Some prompt
action must be taken to stop this
flow out of the realty field into 9TH

Practically every home builder is
ready to go ahead with his buildings
on something like a pre-war scale,

all say that they can obtain the ma

, alone undertake to finance large op-
eratlons. They are anxious to go
ahead and attempt to bring the sup
ply of homes up to the demand. and
will certainly do their part il the
finances are arranged.
Congress was asked at the last
session to take the Federal tax off
OF incomes from real estate invest
ments. 1t undoubtedly will come up
at the coming session, along with
other questions involving the hous-
ing question.
The information which will be
gathered by the local housing COM
mittee certainly will give definite
Information of the extent Of the
shortage here. Before the legis-

scheme for relief will have been
mapped out as a result of the in

; will be a broad fund of Information
for them on which to base action.
The only action which the Congress

settlement of the trouble will be to

houses. Any other kind of legisla-

be a serious hindrance to and ag-

Whooping cough is the mean
est" disease that childhood is
heir to. While rarely fatal in
itself, except to children Under
two years Of age, still it hangs on
so long-the coughing paroxysms
are so violent, preventing proper
sleep and digestion that when
the disease does disappear it
leaves the child weakened and
run down. In addition the
violent coughing racks and strains
the air passages and after re-
covery this irritation frequently
remains.
During this period Of conval-
escence the child should be most
carefully watched until full
strength is restored and the air
passages regain their normal tone.
A prominent authority even goes
SO far as to say-"There is more
criminal neglect in connection
