VITAL NEED FOR MORE
HOMES IN AMERICA
Building Efforts Directed Too Much
to Industry and
Business.

The "installment mortgage" is one
of the features growing out of the
shortage of homes. Its Inauguration
is due to the efforts of some of the
large industrial concerns in Chicago
and other cities to promote the IN
terests Of their employees. The shHt-
age of homes adds not only to the
financial burdens of many classes OF
people. but has general disturbing
effect that fosters unrest and de-
crease in production.
In one of the plans involved the
employees are to make an initial pay
ment Of 10 per cent of the cost OF
the home and then pledge themselves
to Day the balance in monthly in
stallments covering a period of ten
years, the total cost being just what
the cost has been to the corporation.
1t is believed that such plans cannot
fail to have helpful effect on general
industrial conditions, for nothing has
a more stabilizing influence on those
who perform the country.s work than
adequate and comfortable homes.
During the first four months of the
present year more than one-half of
the total valuation of new construc-
ton work has been for industrial
and business buildings. While there
is great need for these. there is a
vital necessity that a larger percent
age of the nations building activ-
itie. should be directed to the con-
struction of homes. Only about 20 per
cent of the total construction of the
country so far in 1920 has been given
home building. which is at least 10
per cent below normal.

TOBACCO AS INCENSE

Tobacco smoking began as re-
Fligious rite. Tobacco was used ps
the Indians much as oriental NATIONS
made use of nlyrrh or, franklncense
in their religious oDservances. vos-
