New York City. May c0.-Brcathes
there a man with a soul SO dead who
never to himself hath said: own
Your Own Home!"? II so. let him at
tend the Own-Your- Own Home Expo
sition when 1t appears in his town and
forthwith be converted.
This exposition has already been held
In Chicago and New York. where 1t
turned thousands of settled cliff dwell
ors into determined home owners. and
cities.
1t consists OF n whole miniature su-
burb, reproduced In elaborate detail,
Including many different types OF at
iractive homes. set off by tiny gardens
and dignificd by that boon of the land
scapo gardencr-the tall and stately
cedar. Nothing Is lacking in the way
OF homely realism. from the latest
thing in laundry tubs TO the best type
OF rambler rose for the front vcranda.
All that goes into tho making OF the
modern American home-as we'll as
much that docsn't-is there before the
dazzled gaze of the horne seeker, to say
nothing of the homes themselves
There arc severe. little, stucco houses
quaint. little frame dwellings, large
and prctcnuous brick houses-a wide
selection to choose from.
All are reproductions Of prize win
ming designs from n recent nationa |
small-house contest. which was held
under the auspices of the American
Institute of Architects. and in which
a thousand architects took part. A ma
uonally known architectural jury
selected 20 designs In three classes
Uumber. brick. and stucco and back
plastered metal lath) for prizes total
Ing $4,000. Tho awards were governed
principally by the economy of space
shown in tho floor plans, and prefer
cnco was given to designs that would
be reasonable in upkeep and reduce
general operating expenses TO a mini
mum.
For the exposition Ia desisncd to
reach the great mass Of smaIl-home
builders. 1t strives to show the man
with only small amount of capital
how nc can build a comfortable, thoro-
~ up-to-date house at a surprisingly
rent.
Home-building IL not only desira bic
now, It Is necessity. the organizers
OF the exposition point out. According
To Robert II. Sexton. its managing di-
rector, the national dwelling shortage
at tho close OF last year was placed
at the appalling figures Of I. .25o. .c6o. TN
normal times" he says, the United
states builds between $4,000 and 400
600 family dwellings each year. In 1912
only sb'0oo such dwellings were erected
and in 1920 but $1,000 wcre reported

This situation, tho home building

Sir John Simon. who is coming to
America this summer to address tho
American Bar Association and the
Canadian Bar Association. has had a
strikingly successful career. both as a
lawyer and as a statesman. After
completing his education at Edin-
burgh and Oxford. he was called to
the bar in 1899 and became n Kings
counsel only nine years later. In
1903 he was ono OF counsel for the
British Government in the Alaska
boundary arbitration. Becoming n
member of Parliament in 1906. he
quickly reached office as Solicitors
General. 19lo-1e13. Later he be-
came Attorney General, with n scat in
the Cabinet. and when the Coalition

was made Homo Secretary. When

of course is tho liability of a large
number of citizens to obtain tho neccs-
sary capital. They are perfectly willing
to build homes, long to do so. in fact.
but they cannot even begin to pay for
the lumber. To these eager but thwart-
cd own Your Own Homcrs." perhaps
the building and loan association is the
best answer.
To the person who owns the land
upon which he wishes to build. or
who has saved enough to pay one
fourth or one-third on a piece of prop
crty. the building and loan association
lends the necessary capital, which tho
borrower pays off in regular monthly
payments.
The would be home builder who lacks
even the one-fourth or onc-third prop
crty interest required. would do well
TO join one of these associations and
begin the accumulation as savings
investor until he can obtain loan. A
fair rate Of interest IL paid on savings
accounts.
There are 5000 OF these buildings and
loan associa tons in the United States.
which are doing a real service to the
people well as making great deal
of money. 1t is estimated that the
mortgages held by them now agErc-
gate in excess OF 1880. 600 900. their
total membership liz about 5000 900 per-
sons. and approximately 200.o00 home
purchase loans totaling $500. .000. .OoO
were made by them last year. All of
tho associations are under the strict
supervision of the banking dcpn T.
ments Of tho states and are regularly
examined the same as other SAVINGS
institutions Philadelphia probably
owes its designation as the City Of
Homes to the great multiplicity of it's
savings and loan assocations. which
arc looked upon as tho real hope OF
tho own n-Sour-own-Homc movement.

own YOUR own HOME

Nor is ovcrcrowding confined to So
called slum districts: 1t is also found to
prevail among the middle classes.
The scarcity of homes likewise
breeds discomfort. 1t is pointed out and
keeps large part OF the population
good OF the nation 1t should be quietly
housed. The homeless citizens, who
drifts from one community to another.
is seen to ho possible source OF So
cial and political disorder.
Tho government IL beginning to
realize that homeless citizens aud famf-
lies. rich and poor. arc not usually the
best American citizens says Mr..
Sexton. 1T is beginning to realize that
every additional home owner makes an
additional credit possibility to the ma
tons wealth and an additional urg.
for all other forms OF permanent con-
struction." In other words, Mr. Sex
ton believes tho government Is coming
around TO tho ChcstcYtonian belief that
under the system of private property.
every citizen should be a private prop
erty owner.
Just what the government intends to
do about it, however still remains a
mystery. II is known to have acquired
vast reams of Information upon the
subject: to have bccn deep In the con-
sidoration of public health reports on
housing conditions and financial re-
pors concerning mortgages and loans,
as we'll "a reports on rent increases in
various cities. but the nation still
awaits a home run from congress. Sen
ators Calder. Edgo and Kenyon have
made their important rccommcnda- =
tons. but as yet nothing has come of
them.
City BsiidisE Projects
Meanwhile various cities have at
tempted relief measures. A few have
Themselves into tho homo. A.
ing business for the benefit of the pub
lie. while others have placed restric-
tive measures upon profiteerinE land
lords. New York has made things as
pleasant az possible for the home
building public by cxemptng its prop
erty from taxes for the next 1vc years.
But, for the most part. the would
be home owner Is left 10 solve hts diff
culties for himself. lie can either build
house at the present high cost OF
building material. knowing that
eventually that price must come down;
or he can pay an exorbitant rent for
house which he never will. and prob
ably won't want to. own. In one case
he buys stock that liz certain to 20
down: In tho other. he pays n large
rate of interest on stock that belongs
to someone else. or the two altcrna-
tives building scems to offer the bet
returns.
Take. for instance, house which
costs s5.bfs. including the price of the
land. II rented. the owner would de-
