IN RATIO OF 5'To 4lsAYS ALL'S WELL
Housing Situation in United
States Becomes Acute.
Several Million Families in
West "Doubled Up.s

Chicago, Nov. 10.-Estimating that
there will be five families for every
four homes in 1925 unless building is
sped up i'll all parts of the United
States, Wharton Clay, housing ex-
pert, today declared that congress
must pass legislation to encourage
building. =
Clay, who was to appear before the
United States senate committee onlre-
construction and production which
opened a two-day inquiry here today
into the housing situation in the middle
west, estimated that several million
families are now doubled up and that
it will be necessary to build two million
homes in the next five years to keep
the housing shortage from going be-
yond its present level. -
The committee today planned to
question leading bankers, business
men, railroad presidents and housing
experts in it's effort to find a remedy.
The quickest remedy, according to
Clay, is to encourage investments in
building. Toward this end, he said,
congress Should amend the present
federal income tax law SO that mort
cages on homes would be exempt from
taxation. 81
Among those who were expected to
testify today were President Story of
the Atchison, Topeka & Santa. Fle rail-
iOoU, JAMES It OISdF, president or the
First National bank here; President
Barkham of the Illinois Central rail-
road, and John Fitzpatrick, president
of the Illinois Federation of Labor
Senator Calder, of. New York. IS
chairman of the committee. Other
members are Senator Kenyon. Of
Iowa; e. ]. Gay, of Rhode Island;
Senator Wolcott, of Delaware, and
Senator Edge. of New Jersey. q
The committee will hold similar
meetings in other western. cities 5 s.

SoLons Can Come
Clean, Plan NotU
Sumptuous Roman Baths To Be Re-
opened Under Cooperative Plan by
New Administration at Washington.


Washington, Nov. 10.-The Grace
Roman baths of the United States SEN
ate, installed nearly eight years ago
but never put into service, are now be-
ing cleared of the cobwebs and stains
of time, and will be in shape to offer
their Injuries of steam, plunge. show
err and electricity to the members of
the new senate when it assemblies.
Charges of extravaganza were aimed
at the baths in confessional debate
when the power of administration last
swung from Republican to Democratic
and as a result the baths. installed in
the then new senate office building
were shorn of their expensive equip
ment, bereft of their attendants and
left to gloom. The marble slabs,
Turkish rugs and steam proof tables
and chairs were turned over to the
government hospitals and only the
marble shells and nickel fittings left
in place.
Now. however, the baths are COM
ing back, but under new plan. Mem
bers of the senate themselves will pay
large part of the operating expenses,
and a special unofficial committee has
taken charge of the assessments which
will be levied against each user in
proportion to the service he exacts.
The baths will be somewhat less
gorgeous than the original plan antic-
ipated butt in their luxury and COM
pletepess will still have claim to COM
parison with private club installation.
Senators will be able to steam them
selves out in a series of marble hot
rooms, resuscitate themselves on the
drying room cots. invigorate under one
of the several types of needle and
drench showers and float in the swim
ming size plunge.
They also can try massage. the cleo
| trio cabinet or the prickling shocks
from the static machine. Some sena-
| tors at least feel that the waste of let
| ting the equipment lie dormant is as
| great as any expense that may be en-
| countered in putting it into service.

box car that served as the depot fol-

gulch half a mile away, it deposited
Miss Donovan almost in the arms OF

wary of the wiles of women and the
ethics of society, promptly turned hei
over to Jim Westcott, who had come
down to inquire if the station agent
held a telegram for him-a telegram
that he expected from the East.
"She oughtn't to hike to the Tim.

This yere is pay day up at the big
mines, an the boys are havin' a h

In view of this disclosure, Miss
Donovan welcomed the courteous
acquiescence of Westcott, whom she
judged to be a man of thirty-one, with
force and character-these written in
the lines of his big body and his
square, kind face.
I'm Miss Stella Donovan of New
