an excellent example of the most

portions Of the windows in relation
to the mass of the house itself are
unusually good, and give proof Of tho

not be too strongly emphasized that

NO POSTAL CASH FOR HOMES.
Possibly we must read this in con-
junction with the much discussed
plan to have postal deposits invested
in local real estate mortgages. This
could not be more effective than any
other scheme for Government loans
to individuals. 1t would certainly
lead to further steps by Government
(politicians) into the field OF private
banking. The hand of the profess
sional politician could easily turn this
to his advantage, and of course the
larger the number of depositors the
more impudent would the Government
be in it's efforts to correlate interest
rates and loans to economic condi-
tions.
The committee also recommends
the creation of a Federal bureau

Is MILLION AMERICANS
IN TEMPORARY HOMES

1t is estimated that 25,ooo'ooo peo-
pIe in the United States are now iiV-
ing in temporary habitations. This
condition, 1t is said, has engendered
not the most kindly feeling toward
elements or factors responsible or
suspected of being responsible iof
this great shortage of homes.
Since the close of the war whicn
was the principal factor in bringing
about this condition, relief has been
blocked by a petted labor out OF
seIf,sh fears and by a moneyed in
terest out of selfish desires.
