Foreign exchange, another item which
cannot be controlled, is mounting stead

state department in the conduct of for

WASHINGTON. Jan. 4-Four million
persons in the United States are made
quately housed, the public health is men-
aced by this condition, and it will take
years for the nation to catch up according
to Il review of the housing situation
throughout the country, made by the
civic development department of the
United States chamber of commerce
The actual shortage of houses is placed
at 100000 by John lhlder, manager of
the Development department. Discussing
the situation toby. he said:
For a number of years prior TO the
World war it is conservatively estimated
there were erected IN the United States
between 100000 and 100000 family dwell,
ings in year, This includes homes and
apartments. During the war construction
of houses was practically at standstill,
with the exception of building done by
the government. As a result we came out
of the war far behind our regular build
ing program. The situation has not i'm,
proved d great deal since the signing OF
the armistlce except for brief squirt IN
1919, because those who contemplated

building homes put it off until prices
should become stabilized.
In 1919 it is estimated there were
built only about 10000 houses in the
United States, while the number erected
during 1920 will probably turn out to
have been even smaller than that figure
while it is true there are many houses
for sale, nearly all are now occupied by
tenants. The number of houses for rent
in most communities is practically nil,
and the majority Of these are not suitable
tor the needs of the average wage Garner
Those earning small salaries are hit hard
est by the shortage.
They as we'll as many with larger in
comes are doubling uD or are taking in
dodgers, increased rents, too, have caused
many families to share their quarters
with outsiders, SO we have the anomaly. Of
a block or an apartment house containing
a larger number of people than in the
past, vet with al. occasional house or
apartment vacant because those needing
better quarters cannot afford any higher
rents. This overcrowding of rooms is
viewed with anxiety by the public health
officials, who realize how infectious dis
eases spread under such conditions

chairs and packing boxes to make them
high enough to serve as desk chairs. Ar
chives and other trade and diplomatic
records are tied up with strings in bun
dies for want Of fling cases. In several
countries the legation has no safe IN
which to keep the codes and valuable pa
pers, and more than one consulate has no
safe in which to secure the thousands of
dollars in cash paid in weekly as wise ices.
The robbery at Warsaw could be dUpli-
Gated with ease in more than on" post.
If foreign government should, as a
testimonial OF ITS friendship, present to
the United States ground on which to
erect legation building it would posi-
bly, prove an embarrassment to friendship
as well as to Americas prestige, if the
conditions in San Salvador should be dup
Heated. San Salvador presented to the
United States ground for legation build
ing, and $4,000 was appropriated by con-
gIess to cover everything. The most dill
igent effort to find a responsible contrac-
tor who would undertake the cOustruc-
ton of n suitable building including the
preparation OF the grounds. construction
of driveways. sidewalks and fences. was
without result. The building is now near
ing completion and stands surrounded by
premises that are anything but presenra-
BILE and do not give evidence that the
United States APPRECIATES the courtesy
of the little Republic.
For the fiscal year ending June 30, 1921
the department last winter requested 81 =
10000 for contingent expenses of for
eign missions. Congress allowed only
100000 Also $l,l6S,O00 was requested
for contingent expenses OF the United
States cOnsulates. of which 81 100000 was
allowed Practically one third of the total
appropriation had TO be spent for rent

UNCOMMON WEST AND NORTH
Within the Last Few Weeks Southern
Liquor Has Been Flowing Very
Freely In City Of Washington.

Washington, John F. Kramer, pro
hibition enforcement officer, thinks
that moonshining is on the wan ID the
South. He admits that $40 quart
for corn fresh from the worm is
mighty tempting, but his men are
spreading fear around.
Mr.. Kramer must not have been
through the house and senate office
building lately, for 1t is stated on re-
liable authority, those who buy it, that
good North Carolina moonshine can
be had for 81 a quart. Within the
last few weeks southern liquor has
commenced to flow rather freely here
People who buy 1t pronounce it flair
to middling hooch."
"The temptation to make moonshine
is great" said Mr.. Kramer, ut is
selling for $40 quart, but our men in
the south say they are breaking up
the business. In the north and west
the moonshine distillery is not a com
mon thing. There Is the private still
and home brew, These do not worry
US much. Men will not wait around
a month or so to get drink. Home
brew is fad Most everybody wants
to try it out, but they will soon Quit
it."

was appointed after conference be-

Chairman Marlatt, of the Federal

only means of getting rid Of the pink
pool worm. Charges that failures OF
Texas to provide adequate measures
of control and failure to cooperate
were met with declarations from its
delegates that the question was a ma
