HOUSES NEEDED.

Probably no maker of laws has had more
experience in, nor more first hand knowledge of
the house-building industry than Senator Cald-
err Of New York.
The house shortage is far from solution, ac-
cording to the senator This is as true in the
United States, he argues, as it is elsewhere.
Nothing much has been done to bring the
house supply up to the demand" Calder as
serts.
He suggests two governmental helps:
l. Exempting from taxation the income
from real estate mortgages, and
g. An immediate investment of four billion
dollars in buildings.
At least the major part of this investment,
he urges, should be made by the government,
for, "it is impossible to build home for those
earning low wages or salaries at cost which
will allow it to be rented or sold without q
loss"
"There has been increased production in
everything" Calder points out, excepting
BODYBUILDING This industry has stumbled
along slowly, and the nation today is as far
from the end of the house-shortage as it was
last year"
Since the senator first demanded action by
Congress housebuilding has slumped still more.
This during the period usually most productive
in the building industry. The result has been
house demand far larger than the supply, a
condition profitable alone to the rent-raising
landlord.

Auto its.Sheep
One in Hospital
Unusual Accident Takes Place on the
Geneva Road West of Kenosha
on Monday Night.

Joe Dennig, residing at Ill North
Fremont avenue, is in the Kenosha
hospital suffering from a broken nose
and several severe bruises and cuts in
his head as result of injuries he re-
ceived on Monday evening just after
six o'clock when an automobile in
which he was riding struck a sheep
on the Geneva road, eight miles west
of Kenosha. Other occupants of the
automobile, which was thrown into the
ditch, are reported to have escaped
with only slight injuries. The sheep
was killed. The automobile was not
travelling at high rate of speed. The
sheep was sauntering along the road
way and got directly in front of the
automobile. The impact when the
collision came was sufficient to throw
the automobile off the road and Den
mig out of the automobile. He will be
in the hospital for several days. A
farmer in the neighborhood telephoned
the sheriff's Office this morning, ask
ing an investigation into the accident
AS yet he has not claimed damages for
the killing of the sheep.

''HON."

The season is approaching when any scamp
running for office becomes Honorable" by au-
thority of the campaign committee.
The designation Hon." freely handed
around in politics at election time, becomes the
handle whereby bad as well as good men are
presented to the public.
'They are calling my husband Honorable
said the candidates proud wife, according to
an old joke
Who'd ever have thought it ]" exclaimed her
admiring friend, innocently enough.
The promiscuous use of Honorable" as a
trade name in politics is a libel on an adjective
descriptive of what's best in good character.
It's about time its use we're dispensed with and
much credit would accrue TO the candidate for
Congress who would write to the local cam
paign committee a letter something like this.
Gentlemen: It has come to my attention
that in campaign literature and posters you
are referring to me as Honorable

MAKES APPEAL
FOR OLD ALIENS
Randall Asked to Facilitate
the Way to Citizenship
for $50 in Kenosha.
LOYAL TO COUNTRY

An appeal has been made to Con-
gresham c. E. Randall of the First
Wisconsin district, asking that he
make special appeal to President
Woodrow Wilson to open the way for
something like $50 aliens in Kenosha
to gain their citizenship at the hearing
of the naturalization petitions in the
circuit court in September, in order
that they may have part in the nation
al elections to be held in November.
These people are for the most part
all old people who have been residing
in Kenosha county for many years and
who were forced to bear the distinc-
tion fallen enemies" with the breaking.
out Of the war and on account of the
fact that they were natives of one of
the countries at war with the United
States they were dubbed fallen enc
mics" Many of them had made APP
plications for admission to full citi-
zenship before the United States en-
tered the war.
All Loyal to Adopted Country.
Every one of the more than a hun
dred aliens were loyal to their adopted
country during the war and many of
them sent their sons to the army. Be-
fore they may have their full citizen
ship they must have q special order
from the president of the United
States, removing all objections to their
becoming citizens. Many Of them have
already applied for such exemption but
their petitions have been held up on
account of the fact that so many Of
these petitions have been filed with the
president.
It was stated that Judge Randall had
given the assurance that he would do
all he could for the people who are
filing the petitions.
