The present housing crisis is COM
mon to all parts o. the world. It is q
.act that the great cities are suffering
as never before in their history from
serious lack Of housing facilities. 1t
also fact that this condition must
ae remodied, lest further delay prove
disastrous. The question is how best
. meet the situation.
The answer 10 this question is being
sought not alone by America, but also
ny the people of France, England,
Japan and other foreign countries.
Evidence Of the truth and correctness
of this conclusion recently was forced
pom my mind by visits paid me by
members of the British Housing Com
mission and representatives of the Jap
snese Imperial government.
The representatives Of these two for
egn powers came to my office and
stated tina. their mission was to study
ne housing situation in New York

be rep esentative of the latest devel-

ion. Edward S. Strauss, NJ. p, repre-
Sented the London Housing Commis-
sion.

So impressed was Mr.. Strauss with
ne Development and improvement of
Jackson Heights and Homewood that
upon his return to England he dis
csIussed the subject with the London
housing Board and subsequently wrote
NE requesting photographs and detail

pected.

cured, as also a substantial structure
that will not dcteriorate, either in
wardly or outwardly, with the lapse Of
time.
To Overcome Obstacles
IF the obstacle to revival OF
building activity is the present high
cost of material and labor. it is obvious
that the only alternative Is to discover
substitutes for the higher cost ma.
terials materials that will require q
less amount of handling by costly
labor.
If tho difficulty is to find builders
capable Of supplying the cash equity
over and above the building loan, the
only solution in that event is to wal,
until such builders find themselves it
more comfortable financial position
or TO organize a new corporation, with
large capital, the purpose Of which
shall be to finance the equity which
the average builder Of to-day ap.
parently finds it difficult to bridge.
