HlLLIEsT OF WORLDS CITIES
San Francisco, With Its Many EIeva- tions, outranks Any of the Gen.
 ters of Population.

As to the question of the seven seas, perhaps it is contributing little to similar geographical information to refer to the seven hills of Rome and to say that many descriptions of San Francisco incorrectly speak of san Francisco on her seven hills.'
 As a matter of accuracy, says the writer of letter to the editor of the New York Herald, San Francisco is the hilliest of the worlds large cities. Occupying the end of a fifty-mile-long peninsula, which is fianked on the ocean side by the Pacific and on the inland side by the southern arm of San Francisco bay, the city itself cOv- CTS rumpled, hilly area of apprOxi- mately 3O,O0O acres, as compared with the 14,OO0 acres of Manhattan island. .-
 The city contains not just seven hills but a total of fOrty-fOur. The highest of them, Mount Davidson, is 957 feet Two at the apparent end of the main business street, under which the .thOrOughfare passes by long tunnel, are 728C and 732 feet and are called Twin. Peaks, to the summit of which there is a scenic automobile drive. Strawberry hill, in the middle of Gold en Gate park, which is third larger in area than New YOrk's Central park, is cOnical hill APO feet high, and it is girdled half way up by a pleasure lake, while Lone mountain, famed these last eighty years as the site of mass i've sixty-fOOt cross upon its summit, also is APO feet high.
 Practically all of the fOrty-fOur hills of San Francisco are almost twice as high as any hill in Rome and nearly all of them are about twice as high as the AcrOplis hill in Athens or Wash ingtOn Heights in New York or the river bluffs of HObOken or West New York on the New Jersey side of the Hudson.
 Except for that fourth of San Fran ciscO's hills which have been complete ly built upon or changed by man, this interesting fact have observed on the summits of some thirty of them-wild California yellow viOlets growing and a-blOOm in spring, lingering suggestions perhaps of the floral abundance that may have characterized the least fav- Ored parts of the peninsula in the old days before the gringO came or be- fore the world learned that a mag nificent landlocked and hill-sheltered harbor nearly 100 miles long and from three to six miles wide lay. snugly be- hind that narrow slit in the hills, but 8 mile and an eighth in width, forming the picturesque western ocean portal known as the Golden Gate.

New York.-"As we advance into

more apparent that no problem Is In
more urgent need Of an early and wise
solution than that which Is involved
In the nations housing situation" says
s. w. Straus.
"From the most reliable statistics OBJ
tainable at this time the actual amount
of building accommodations through
out the country are considerably less
than they were year ago. While the
figures indicate an increased cost of
new building contracts awarded dur
Ing the year 1920 of about per cent.
as compared with 1919, this was more
than discounted by the added cost of
building construction and the loss Of
available space through fires and de-
teriOration. In brief. the country Is
going backward In Its housing equip
ment.
"Overcrowding In the large cities
has reached such serious state that
health authorities are sounding an
