cities during the year, at a cost Of $40,-
500, 240, or considerably more than the
cost of churches and hospitals COM
bined; and while these cities con-
structed SAT schoolhouses, their cost,
scoops, 40, was but little more than
half the money spent on garages.
1.-THE Importance of these figures
from social point of view is that they
show that building construction for
the purpose of housing families lags
far behind the current increase in the
demand for houses. If we apply the
marriage rate that obtained in 1916
to the population of these 1876 cities,
we find that in 1920 1862, 7S5 marriages
took place in the cities considered. II
only half Of the married couples seek
homes to themselves, we are building
not more than half of the accommoda-
lions required"

Think More of Garages Than of Homes

CECRETARY of Labor Davis said
that an investigation by his de-
partment showed that there were
more homes built for automobiles than
for families in 1920. Mr.. Davis was
bit surprised at this discovery, but
when check was put on the figures
they were found correct. 1t also was
discovered that more moving picture
houses were built than churches and
schools combined.
1T would seem to me-" said Mr..
Davis, "that we are more interested
in housing automobiles than in hous-
ing ourselves. / am Informed by Eth
ebert Stewart, commissioner of labor
statistics, that in 1876 cities with over
$4,000 population from which returns
were received, $1,2O4 490,764 was ex-
pended in building construction for
1920.
1.-THE population Of these 1876 cities
was "a, 572,904, or 1927 per cent of the
total population of the United States.
There were 6S,637 one-family houses
constructed at a cost of 1896, 124, 500,
or 24.6 per cent of the total amount Of
money spent in all kinds of building.
There were only 5,402 two-family
houses built, but while in all the one
and two-families provided for 74,039
homes there were 98,121 garages built.

''It is my plan to establish four vo-

Colonel Forbes plans to start the

training. :.
At the present time there are APP
proximately $4,000 men taking voca-

than 10000 are engaged in the training
of some of the trades. The present
plan calls for the establishment of
classes in masonry, architecture,
plumbing, printing, engraving, book

steamfitting, as we'll as courses along
agricultural lines, such as horticulture,
animal husbandry, dairying, cheese
