HOMES FOR WORKERS.

A COMPLETE plan for the erec-
a. ton of cheap but substantial
houses by the state and their sale to
persons of moderate means is pro-
vided in the 1919 Housing Act of New
Zealand.
The scheme is under the control
of housing board.
No person may obtain a dwelling
under this act who is not a worker, -"
but worker is defined as "any per
son employed in any capacity in any
industry or calling, whether by an
employer or on his own account. -
But there is the further limitation
that houses may not be sold to a man
whose income exceeds, in our money
at normal exchange rates, SLIPS.
This figure, however, is for those with
not more than two children; for each
child or other dependant above that
number a man is allowed an increase
of S100 in his income, but the act
states that in no case may a house
be sold to anyone whose income is
more than 81 ,525.
There is sharp liIpitat on, also,
upon the price at which houses built
Americus times-recorder., 1920-05-11

or acquired by the board, may be
sold In the case of wooden dwell
ings the highest figure permitted is
$3.50, and in any case the price
must not go above $4,250.
When man buys a house he pays
$50 as a deposit, and then completes
payment for wooden house in
rs 1-2 years and in the case of d
brick or stone house in SO 1-2 years.
With each installment the purchaser
pays also interest at 1-2 per cent
on the amount of purchase money
outstanding at the time. The buyer
may also pay off as large part of
his obligation as he pleases whenever
an installment comes due. He must
also pay insurance charges.
If the purchaser defaults in his
payments, the board may cancel the
agreement, but the former receives
back the amount of purchase money
he has paid in, minus an allowance
for depreciation of the property dur
ing his residence Five hundred dol
lars may be advanced to the buyer
for the improvement of the land upon
which his house stands.

Thomas Riley Marshall said a

What this country needs is a

T. R. Marshall is vice president of
the q. S. A.
Besides being presiding officer of
the senate T. Riley Marshall smokes
cigars.
But the people of the U. S. A.
don't pay their V. P. a big salary.
They haven't raised it since the
H. c. L. began awaiting.
So Tom Marshall feels the pinch of
prices.
But, once in while T. Marshall
is in error He is now.
This country has plenty of good
scent cigars.
The only trouble being, as Squire
Abner Harpington points out, is the
fact that they are selling the good
scent cigars at two-for-a-quarte

1t is said that the price of silk
shirts of the better grade, reports a
commercial expert, is to go as high
as $40 each. In Chicago some of the
stores are selling silk shirts on the
installment plan. This method of
selling shirts may possibly be worth
passing along to stores of other
cities, suggests this expert.
And, if these price-boosters keep
on it Il only be a question of time
