HOUSING SITUATION
 WILL BE DISCUSSED
Real Estate Boards to Confer
 on Matter

Chicago, H., July 1.-Plans for re-
 lief of the housing shortage will ba taken up at the annual convention of the National Association of Real Els tate boards, converting here July 12- New federal tax legislation to stim
 ulate building will be considered. President Harding, in a recent con- ference with Fred E. Taylor, of Port land, Ore, president of the associa- ton, said he wished to send mess age touching on economic problems. Herbert Hoover, secretary of con- merce, who has been studying the housing situation and who will have in his department bureau to lnVes-
 tigate and make public building costs
 and labor wages, will address the con- vention.
 Senator William M. Calder of New
 York, chairman Of a senate commit tee which has been conducting hear ings in reference to the housing and building situation, has accepted an
 invitation to lay some specific recom- mendations for legislation to help re- lieve the housing shortage before the convention. Charles T. Moffett of Minneapolis, member of the National Tax COn1orGnCo, dHu ol1IGI l.known tax experts arc on the pro- gram.
 Twenty topical conferences on spe-
 cific subjects will be held the fore moons of July 13 and IA in place of the usual general convention sessions. These conferences are expected to make definite recommendations to the resolutions committee.

LAPS AND CHINESE
 OPPOSED TO CHANGE
Object to Japan Making Gold the
 Standard Of Exchange

Tokio July 1.-Opposition both by Japanese and Chinese merchants al Dairen to Japan's attempt to set up the gold standard in the kWanuns leased territory as substitute for the . Chinese silver standard Is a leading subject of discussion in Japan.
 The conservative Jiji Shimpo thinks that if the adoption of a gold stand ard can facilitate and increase trans acions, it should be carried out, how sever strong the opposition to it may be. But if, on the other hand, the proposal is calculated to depress and ! interfere with transactions. it should he opposed. From this point of view the newspaper thinks, it seems that there is reason for the present oppC- sition. It is Chinese who buy in the interior districts the staple products of Manchuria and Mongolia and bring them to the Dairen market
 They buy on the silver basis and when Dairen transactions are based on a silver basis, as at present, they are free from the danger of charges in the parity of gold and silver. If a gold standard is adopted they may desert the Dairen market in favor of V.adivostock or Harbin. More over changes in the parity of gold and sill yer may make it impossible for some Chinese to execute contracts. Under the existing system the risk of a change in the party of old and silver .. is borne chiefly by Japanese exporters veho are not only capable of bearing it. but can shift the burden to others with the result that there is no ser ious obstacle to transactions.
 The 5iji urges the government to make clear to the public it's reasons for wishing to impose the gold stand ard.

OREGON DISDAINS
 SHOWING ALOOFNESS
Mexican President Mingles With Pub- lice and Frequents Celebrations
 Prepared by the People.

. Mexico City, July 1.-President casions lately that there is nothing of the aloofness and unapproachabil- ityA about him that characterized his predecessor, Carranza. He frequently dimes in public with his wife and a. one cafe where there is dancingg he may be found iii times escorting 8 friend in promenade although he does : not dance.
 At recent wrestling match he aroused much applause when he quietly slipped into a box and was not :. at all backward in picking his man to win.
 He still refuses to use Chapu1te pee Castle, the beautiful presidential home. for residence preferring to live in a modest cottage nearby. The Castle however, is frequently used for small parties and the circle of Obregon friends is we'll entertained. The president disdains pomp and show and even the few state recep- tions he has held have been modest. Always a geod horseman, General Obregon may be seen almost any Sunday morning on the bridle path and on days of fiesta he frequently joins the automobile parade through Chapultepec park.
 At no time does he carry a body guard. not even on a recent national holiday when rumors of revolution were rife. On that day he passed through thousands of spectators in an open carriage.

TO GIVE UP AIRCRAFTS
British Government Dosing Vast Amount of Money on Idle Dirig- ibIes-May Discontinue Building.

London, July 1.-Dirigible airships appear to be in little demand here. A number of them that cost the Brit ish governm ent a mint of money to build are now practically going beg ging.
 The Air Ministry announced some time ago that it was prepared to give up airships if they were not taken over by private persons for com Smercial purposes. It now states that 3t has been decided that unless an 3 offer that amounts to something is received before August 1, all it's air chip activities will be discontinued
 The airships, stations and material will then be handed over to the Dis posa1s Board to get rid of, as the Air Ministry. it is stated in the official report, "does not feel justified in con tinuing expenditure on this service.' The Air Ministry offers to sell the R-80, R-33. R-36, R-37 and the former German airships LII and L-64

CRIME In AMERICA.

The dispatches that come in to
the newspapers fairly TEEN with
news of crime, and, although
Iawbreakers have been very ac-
tive in our own city, it is obvious
that conditions in Louisville are
not unusual; the whole is wrest-
ling with a veritable crime wave
"a crime wave that began to
show itself as much as two years
ago, and still continues unabat-
ed.
If there is anyone who believes
that the newspapers take any
satisfaction in printing all this
news of crime, such people are
much mistaken. 1t is infinitely
more agreeable to print good
news than bad, and many of the
criminal episodes of this era are
sordid and brutal, without q touch
Of that mystery that makes a
criminal affair interesting. But
the newspapers have no option
when it comes to printing this
news. 1t is a part of the pheno-
mena of an unusual and perhaps
very important period in Ameri-
can history. We who are living
in the midst of it may realize but
dimly the Importance of what is
taking place, but unless all the
facts are given to the public
there may be no hope of better
mept. That in the end the
whole thing will lead to a deter
mined and successful movement
for the improvement of criminal
justice in America, the Evening
Post believes and hopes.-Louis,
