New York's Housing Problem.

Washington's housing problem,
which was so acute two years ago and
is not very materially lessened by the
reduction in the government forces
following the cessation of war, is
minor compared with that of New York,
where, according to recently compiled
statistics, accommodations for no less
than 100000 persons are lacking. There
is immediate, urgent need of 102, 10
apartments. This need is stated in
terms of apartments for the reason
that no other form of housing is con-
ceived as possible within Greater New
York. Suburban development cannot
proceed on one family house basis
at rate to supply the demand for
habitations within practicable range of
the business areas.
1t is interesting to note in this con.
nection that little less than a cen.
fury ago New York was suffering from
| Just the same sort of problem. There
| had been an inflow from overseas of
immigrants attracted by better living
conditions and better opportunities in
this country, most Of them landing in
or soon going to New York. The Getty

Enter, the Spellbinders.

The spellbinders on both sides now
have their cues, and will at once find
their voices. And there will be large
number of them. Senator New, who
will assign the republican contingent,
estimates his force at fifteen thousand,
with many women enrolled, and we
may all be sure that the democrats
will match them, man for man and
woman for woman. A great talkfest
it will be when all tongues are in
action.
But more than this. U assigned
orators by the ten thousand will be
heard. The soapbox, the street cor
ner, the curbstone, will serve as stump.
Orators will appear and disappear as
If by magic. Audiences will gather
and dispense quite as readily and
rapidly. 1t may come to pass that, in
a way, every man will be his own spell
binder. He will not wait for a pro-

him, but instruct himself-talk to
himself.
This arises from the fact that there
il good deal to talk about-more, in
deed, than presidential contest has
afforded in long time. Topics are
abundant. The abundance, indeed, is
embarrassing. Turn here, turn there
turn yonder, and topics intrigue you.
This makes certain that the cam,
paign will show attention paid to
many questions. Foreign affairs and
domestic affairs have an importance
that cannot be blinked or evaded. The
voters are interested in all, and will
demand light on all. In some meas
ure they must get light; and the side
that supplies it the most generously
will commend itself to popular favor

France to Pay Her Debt.

Announcement is made by NJ. Case
nave, director general of the French
services in the United States, that
France will meet in full her share of
the $5OO.OO0.0OO Anglo French loan
due to the United States in October.
This is regardless of the German in
demnity. 1t is stated that for the
first five months of the current year
France improved her trade balance
by nearly 1000, 100000 francs, increas-
ing her exports by more than 1S2 per
cent over the corresponding period of
1919. The showing for June improves
this condition even further, and re-
duses the difference between imports
and exports by about % per cent. 1t is
estimated that if this improvement is
maintained at the same rate French i'm
ports and exports will balance within
two years and half.
This is a most gratifying showing
Of French industrial recovery from
the devastation of war. When it is re-
membered that large percentage of
the French territory was wrecked dur
ing the more than four years of Ger
man occupation and that this area COM
prised the most intensively developed
industrial part of France, the recovery
of trade balance within six years of
the armistice, if that is accomplished,
will have been an extraordinary
achievement. Frances purpose to re-
pay her share of the Anglo-French
loan is a token of her confidence that
the improvement in her economic con-
dition will continue, else she would
not venture upon this liquidation
without waiting for the German in
demnity. If she can carry out this
policy of debt diseharging from her
own resources she will be in a much
sounder condition than if she de-
pended upon the indemnity for clear
ing the international count.
Special significance may attach to the
announcement of this purpose just at
this time, when the Russian advance
into Poland has gravely shaken con-
fdence in the maintenance of stable
conditions in Europe. 1t may be taken
rs evidence that France feels assured
that the Russian menace will be met
and that it will not affect the sound
ness of government at Paris.

drift" had begun also from the rural
sections as New York developed manu-
features. So great was the demand for
houses-apartments were then I'M
known-that despite every effort thou
sands were left without accommoda-
ton. 1t was no uncommon sight, ac-
cording to a writer on the subject, to
observe families occupying unfinished
buildings, and even camping out in
the streets waiting for the masons and
carpenters to advance the structures
sufficiently to hold them
just how the 100000 for whom ad
ditional apartments are now needed
are now living is not set forth clearly.
Presumably they are packed into in
adequate spaces, two families perhaps
occupying rooms designed for one.
Rent profiteering, it is alleged, has
had much to do with the congestion,
as it has driven thousands OF families
to "double up in this way to reduce
expenses.

But it is to be assumed that the
owners and operators of the roads will
do their best in the circumstances
They know they are under close OBJ
servation; that the advocates of gov
eminent ownership and operation are
on the alert for everything that will
help along that cause; that failure
now might serve that end.
Gov Cox does not want to see failure.
Neither does Mr.. Harding. So, with
this assurance, those now in control
of the railroads will be encouraged.
Government ownership and opera
ton of railroads would carry so much,
bearing not only on the important
questions of transportation but on
other questions, that it would almost
deserve campaign in itself. The
voters should have opportunity, and be
solicited, to say distinctly at the polls
yes orsno to policy which, if adopted,
would work reaching change in
our affairs. For it would be intended
to inaugurate, and might inaugurate,
state socialism on a large scale, and
land us in the middle of an order
quite foreign to our foundations and
TO all that we had hitherto accom-
plished.

The Zoning Hearings.

Today begins series of hearings
at the District building on the coming
plan under the new law. The District
has been divided into sections for this
purpose, and representatives of each
are to be heard in turn. In this way
the Commissioners will obtain the
views of all who are affected by the
proposed new system of regulations
The plans so far adopted are merely
tentative, subject to change. The
Commissioners have undertaken this
Large work in a commendable spirit of
initial definition subject to correction
as faults and inequities may be dem
onstrated in the proposed plan. If
they had waited for representations
from the affected areas before formu-
lating their initial plan they would
have met great confusion at the out
set. By proposing a distinct system
and submitting it to the public for
criticism and correction they are in IA
position most quickly and effectively
to establish the new principle of build
ing and business regulation. The com
munity generally recognizes the need
of system in this matter. Here and
there objections are felt and expressed
to particular features of the proposed
plan. Naturally all who are affected
unfavorably at this time wish the plan
changed. 1t is inevitable that some
may be disconnected and possibly
that some may be injured The Com
missioners' problem is to reduce to a
minimum this ill-effect upon individ-
uals, while attaining to a maximum
of benefit to the community at large.

And dine upon the best;
Though my vacation roll I show,
OF wealth inclined to boast,
Ny pride is humbled, for 1 know

Suffrage in Tennessee.

| Tennessee's legislature meets today
in extra session to consider the An
thony amendment granting to women
suffrage throughout the United States
If the amendment is ratified at Nash
vile it will have received the approval
of thirty six of the states, or the re-
quired three fourths of all, and will,
barring court ruling against the va
lidity of the Tennessee action, be-
come the law of the land. The women
of the United States will then be en-
abled, regardless of state statutes, to
vote for President in November.
But ratification by the Tennessee
legislature is by no means assured.
The most optimistic poll of the mem
bership shows two votes lacking in the
ihouse and one in the senate. If the re-
publican members at their caucus to-
day agree solidly to support the
amendment it may overcome the handi-
cap that it admittedly faces. The
most urgent recommendations have
been made by the national leaders of
both parties to secure support for the
amendment, for the sake of the pres
tige with the women of the country
that will accrue to that party which
will supply the necessary thirty-sixth
state vote.
A favorable vote at Nashville, how
ever, will not assuredly enfranchise
the women of the country at large to
vote in November, for there is state
statute which requires that before
members of the legislature pass on
constitutional amendments the people
of the state shall have had an oppor-
tunity to vote at general election for
the general assembly or convention at
which the proposal is considered. 1t
has been held that inasmuch as no
such election has been held in Ten
nessee since the submission of the
Anthony amendment this present leg
islature cannot legally vote upon it.
If Tennessee votes in the affirmative
at this session, making the thirty
sixth state to record its approval, the
validity of the amendment itself will
be challenged, proceedings to that end
having already been instituted before
the Supreme Court. A question of
gravity arises in this connection. If
the court rules after the election that
the Tennessee ratification is ilvalid
will the election itself, participated in
by the women Of many states which
have not already enfranchised them,
be a legal electionf
One other state-North Carolina
is about to meet for the same purpose,
but there is small hope of success
there, inasmuch as polls have shown
a preponderance of sentiment against
the amendment. Final ratification,
therefore, is now in doubt, even with
the present adverse balance in Ten
nessee overcome by conversions, for
there are no signs of relenting on the
part of the governors of Vermont and
Connecticut, who are refusing to sum-
mon their legislatures in extra session
to consider the amendment, for which
a favorable sentiment prevails in both
states.
