.G0ey were in 1910 and better than
@ 1900 The report shows that, ac-
Tording to the census of 1920, there
we're 586,50 dwellings in Georgia
that year which housed 628,525 fam
lies. The number of persons to a
dwelling in Georgia was 40 in 1920
as AGAINST 40 in 1910 and 81 in
900, the comparisons being based on
the deccnnial censuses of those years.
Because of the report prevailing
that the United States Shipping Board

Robert II. Sexton, managing director
OF the exposition, says: "The national
dwelling shortage at the close of this
year was placed at the appalling figure
OF 1,250,000. In normal times America
builds between $4,000 and 100000
family dwellings each year. In 1919
only $4,000 family dwellings were
erected and in 1920 but $1,000 were
reported. One-fourth Of the population
OF the United States are either living
IN rented quarters or are improperlv
housed, and 60 per cent of these peonle
are the source of all the political uN
rest and disorder in the United States
The country is now confronted WITH
a shortage of 100000 homes.
The government is beginning to
realize that homeless citizens and
families, rich and poor, are not M
tentially the best American citizens-
that every additional home owner
makes an additional credit possibi]itv
to the nations wealth and an add;.
tIonal urge for all other forms of ner-
manent construction.
