debated and wrangled over. or course
no one can deny that the subject of
building finance Is a vital one or ques-
ton the need for some measure that
will stimulate the flow of money into
mortgage channels. but the situation
demands urgent action. and that means
devising methods of construction which
will to n certain extent offset the high
cost of building.
Out of the entire mass OF suggestions
for alternating housing distress-some of
which have found their way into the
statute books OF New York State-bu,
few have dealt with the structural side
of the building problem. All emphasis
has been placed on the matter of stimu-
lating the supply of money, while the
tendency has been to ignore ingenious
proposals for the erection Of cheap
houses. houses which will be within
the reach of the daily toiler who makes
a minimum wage. 1t was to provide
this type of housing so sorely needed in
the congested districts of the country
that | hit upon the idea of building
dwellings side by side and back to back
so as to save money through the re-
duction of party walls and other struc-
tural essentials.

If family were found to be in a
state of need bordering on starvation 1t
goes without saying that the only sensi-
BILE procedure would be to rush them
food and other necessares as fast as
possible. Then, of course. it would be
the part of constructive philanthropy
to make the family self-supporting by
finding employment for the members
who were able to work. If some would
be humanitarian were to reverse the
process and allow the hungry folk to
continue in their distress while he set
about the task of assuring the family
q definite and steady income you would
doubtless brand him as fit subject
for psychopathic observation, and yet
something almost as irrational is being
done to-day in the building field by
sane and sensible men.
With the population of this and every
other big city of the country hungry
for homes. practically all expert atten-
ton is being concentrated on measures
intended to bring more money into the
building market some time in the future.
In the meantime people continue to
starve for housing facilities. Tax ex-
emption schemes which cannot possibly

central heating plant in the centre of
the block Front gardens will enhance
their appearance and answer the pur-
poses of the back yards, which are elm
mated. In districts where greater build
ing areas are available the houses can be
built back to back around a central
court so that half Of the dwellings
would open on TO the street and the
other half onto the court. Whichever
plan is followed. however, each room has
it's ample supply of light and air, as
the diagrams carried above will show.
The back to back and side by side
method of construction would result in
a tremendous saving In masonry, Turing
and plastering. For example, it takes
only eight side walls to enclose each
unit of four houses. whereas the same
houses In detached form would require
s ixteen side walls. The partition walls
dividing the four houses can be made
eight instead of twelve inches thick. and
