Materials

most no building Of dwellings since the
armistiee.
There has been some construction of
business buildings in New York.
This was done by contractors who
had materials that had been contracted
for months ago.
I'm most sections of the United States,
however builders are simply waiting I'M
til next spring before starting work.
Builders now and pretty generally
since the armistice have found it practi-
cally impossible to get materials.
Poor transportation was partially the
reason. Another was tight money.
"The labor shortage and strikes con-
stituted another barrier to building"
The United States Housing corporation
now has no authority to build and sell
homes, AS 1t did during the war, Off
Gals said
The corporation now is liquidating it's
business under an order of congress.
The corporation did, however, this
spring, take what steps it could to re
lieye the situation by selling houses and
materials it had on hand.

Impossible to Get Building

WASHINGTON, Aug. 14-Approxi-
mately 100000 persons in the United
States are now living in temporary,
crowded and. in some cases, insanitary
quarters, according to officials of the
United States housing corporation.
The nation is short more than 5000, 900
dwellings and apartments, said Chief
Engineer Chase of the corporation today.
All hope of improvement must be de-
ferred until next spring. Building now
has practically stopped.
1T will take the country FIVE years to
catch up"
This means rents will continue to soar
this winter, it is believed here.
THE housing situation now is more
acute than it was at the close of the
war period, when practically all building
had been halted for tire years." said
Chase
I'm only few cities has any building
activity gone on since the war ended.
''In this class are Cleveland, Akron,
Detroit, ST. Louis and one or two smaller
middle west towns.
