NO EXCUSE FOR UeLINESS
Man Who Today Builds an Unattrac-
tive or Commonplace House Is
Behind the Times.

There is no excuse IN these days for
building an ugly or commonplace
house. generation ago not many
capable architects were available, es-
pecially in the western country. Even
when they were, the prevailing taste
ran TO frllls of turrets and iig-saw
work. The beauty Of simplicity was
not known, and the architect who
stood out for it often found his client
Obdurate.
All that has changed. A comparison
of the bulk OF the houses built In the
eighties and nineties with those of
more recent years will reveal how far
the country has come. The number Of
competent architects has increased,
and of even greater Importance, the
stock Of sound architectural ideas has
become widely diffused.
Books and magazine articles on the
subject have multiplied amazingly.
The prospective builder ought. of
course TO avail himself Of the services
OF good architect. But even II he
fails TO do this he can find in the pub
lie library excellent designs TO meet
his needs.

poratlons. The senatorial committee
decided TO hear more Of II from Mr..
Barnes. probably in Pittsburgh.
Provoked into recrimlnation, the Re
publlcans are making various accusa-
lions against their opponents. In the
first place Chairman Hays asserted
the Democrats were planning to raise
n fund Of $4,000, OOO-whIch the lat
ter promptly denied. Then Mr.. Hays
charged that the liquor interests were
actively engaged In supporting the
campaign Of Governor Cox, and he
produced a letter signed by the pres
ldent OF the New Jersey Federation
Of Liquor Interests which said the
organization had set out TO do its part
toward the election of Mr.. Cox and
called for assistance. financial and 9th

20 this Is that they have received no
contributions from either the vets or
the drys.
More serious. perhaps, was the &C.
cusation made before the senators

law by assessing federal ofiiceholders

toned closely concerning this and
partly admitted It's truth. but said the

was soliciting funds from Democrats

He said his office had sent out about
100000 letters Of appeal. He told Of

The combined efforts OF Senators
Reed. Spencer. Edge and Kenyon
brought out from Mr.. Jameson the
fact that federal officials generally
were solicited; that they we're in

expected TO give, and that only those

Democratic national chairman. told the
senators he could find no evidence OF
corruption In the Republican plan for
raising campaign funds. and added
that his own party organization was
trying to raise funds by the same
method used by the Republicans But,
he complained. the latter had been the

Another great victory for the Poles
was recorded last week. General
Budenny's bolshevist army, which had
invaded Gaflcia and was threat
enlng Lemberg and the rich oil
fields Of that region, was cut
off and virtually destroyed. Only
few detachments escaped and
these were reported in dlsorderly re-
treat. Budenny's men. mostly mount
ed. were advancing on LuhIn and had
nearly surrounded Zamosc. midway
between that city and Lemberg. when
the Poles fanked them and attacked
from the east, putting them to rout.
The Russians had walked into trap
deliberately set by the Poles. The
losses of The reds in men and mate
rial were heavy. The retirement" of
this army was officially admitted by
Moscow.
In the north the Russo-POllsh war de-
generated into q confused series Of
Isolated battles. various units Of both
sides being separated from their main
commands and in some cases forced
across the East Prussian border. In
general, however, the Poles continued
their successes OF the former week.
and they even advanced into Lithuan-
ian territory for strategic purposes
despite the orders Of Lithuania to the
contrary. What Germany would do
with the many thousands of reds who
took refuge in East Prussia was
pressing question. The Poles feared
these men would be permitted to re-
enter Russian territory and reJoin
their army, and there was reason for
this fear. The Germans complained
they had not enough troops there to
guard the interned reds. but their
