! WashingtOn-Relief from the ma

roads so that building materials can
be transported in larger quantities, ac-
cOrding to reports to officials here.
Building has been almost complete.
ly halted all over the country because

Chief Engineer Chase of the United

"The shortage Of houses is more
acute than II was at the time of the
armistice when building had been sus-
pended for nearly three years. Little
Improvement can be expected until
spring.
"The priority orders ISSUED by the
interstate commerce commission favor
ing the movement of grain and coal
made it practically impossible to get
materials. In only few cities of the
middle west has any considerable
building been undertaken. In prac.
tically all big cities elaborate plans

is contingent on their being able to ge.
