SPECIAL SESSION
OF LEGISLATURE
Will Be Held In The State Of North
Carolina About The First OF
Next July.
Associated Press

RALEIGH, N. c., April 23-Action
of the Democratic state convention
recently in adopting a platform plank
for ratification of the woman suffrage
amendment will be followed by a spec
ial session of the legislature about
July 1.
Louisiana is the only state to have
a session before North Carolina but
Suffrage leaders say no matter what
action is taken in louisiana it will
have no effect on the fight for ratifi-
cation in North Caralina.
If louisiana were to act favorably
it would make the seth state but on
account of some uncertainty over the
ratification in Ohio legislature, be-
cause of a referendum involved, suf-
frage advocates are anxious to have
81 states ratify the amendment.
Opinion is divided here as to what
action the North Carolina legislature
will take. In view of the fact that
both political organizations in the
state have adopted platforms includ-
ing planks favoring suffrage, many
party leaders believe the amendment
will be ratified. Besides Governor
Beckett, many Democratic party lead
ers in the state have come out for the
amendment, including Secretary Dan
iels, Senator Simmons and Congress
man Hoey. The legislature is over
whelmingly Democratic.
Opponents of suffrage believe the
amendment will either be defeated IN
the legislature or by the voters Of the
state. They think the legislature viii
follow Senator Overman's idea anc
propose a state constitutional amend
ment giving women the vote, thus put,
ting the suffrage question up to the
voters, who, they believe, will reject
it.

MASSACHUSETTS
NOT BEEN ABLE
To Make Up For It's Shortage OF
Homes And Keep Rents From
Sky-ROcketing.
Associated Press

BOSTON, April 23-Massachusetts
has not yet been able to make up for
its shortage Of homes and keep rents
from sky-rocketing. A state Commits
sion on the Necessaries of Life is
struggling with the problem but
meanwhile tenants in this city and
elsewhere have obtained littde relief.
Several tenant groups recently refus-
ed to pay advances in rent demanded
of them and by joint action avoided
eviction which would have peer legal
upon 80 days notice.
Two hundred tenants at Revere
have formed a corporation known as
the Tenants League to combat rent
increases and have announced that
they will tolerate no more advances
in rent and requested aid from the
city's local department. The issue
there is still in doubt.
An attempt to solve the problem
by arbitration has been made Brock
ton, a shoe manufacturing center. A
board composed of two tenants, two
landlords and a fifth member to be
selected by the others is to decide
whether rents have been unduly ad-
vanced when disputes arise between
landlords and tenants.
The Commission on the Necessaries
of Life has investigated the housing
and rent problems and has contribut-
ed a number of suggestions for their
solution but as yet has made no formIf
report. 1t has urged the cities to
form housing corporations and take
over and improve abandoned tene-
ments which were u~noccupiea because
the landlords would not ron odel them
so as to make them fit for occupancy.
At the suggestion Of the Commits
sion a bill has been introduced into the
legislature that would limit the return
from investments in dwelling houses
to eight percent. The purpose of it is
to prevent speculation in homes. The
commissioners found that many build
ers had stopped construction because
of the high cost of labor and materials
and had gone to specializing in real
estate. The result was that frequent
sales of property were followed by
advances in rent In many cases ten
ants were forced out of their homes SO
that the landlords might demand high
er rates from new occupants. Massa-
chusetts' corporations have attempted
to relieve the housing shortage by
erecting community houses. WhoAs
villages of attractive houses are b.
ing erected in New Bedford, Lawren~
ce, Lowell and other mill cities, and
will be rented or sold to employees on
easy terms. !.

HOME BUILDING
Is Philadelphia's Answer To Question
OF How To Keep Rents Down
To Reasonable Basis.
Associated Press

PHILADELPHIA, Apr. 21-A cam
paign for the building of homes is
Philadelphia's answer to the question
of how to keep rents down to a rea-
sonable basis. The tenant population
is in desperate straits for rents have
been going higher and higher and no
end seems to be in sight. The scram-
BILE for homes in the suburbs is so
acute that when one woman moved
some of the furniture out Of her
home the other day, in order to clean
the house 25, persons tried to rent it
from her within a few hours.
To stop the profiteering in rents
and homes, several organizations are
attempting to unite on a program of
house building to continue for at
least six months or until the shortage
has been relieved. Thes organizations
include Association Of Tenants, Trade
Unions, representatives of the build.
ing trades and mortgaging companies
They have been asked to undertake
this work by the Department of Pub.
lie Welfare.
Meanwhile camping ground acces'
sible by street ears is in great de.
mand. Tent manufacturers say more
orders have been placed for tents this
month than ever before in Philadel
phia's history.
There is an unprecedented amount
of building of cheap cottages and bun
galows within a radius of 80 miles Of
Philadelphia to accommodate the rusf
of tenants that is expected when mile
weather comes. Those erected in ont
community cost about $500 each ane
are eagerly rented at $3.50 for thu
season.

State Text Books Much Cheaper Than
Others In Kansas


BY printing Its own text books fol-
grade schools the state will save
Kansas children approximately
$125,000 this year. II Is said. The
total saving since the textbook law
went Into effect In 1918 will be more
than 100000 by the end Of tbs year.
The numbr Of books sold during
the school year 1920 was 1,0OO,-
900. The books are sold at cost
to book dealers who are allowed to
add profit not to exceed Is per
cent.
Despite an average increase In
printing costs of about % per cent
over last year. the state printed text
books are still being sold at about 25
to 35 per cent less than similar books
published by private companies. The
average school child pays about
$3.50 for his state printed texts,
which Is a saving Of approximately
seventy-fve cents.
The only high school text printed
by the state is the geometry book.
