SEES NO DECLINE
IN REALTY PRICES
Housing Expert Calls, People
Partly to Blame for Large
Shortage.

Henry ". Brigham, an attorney, of
Boston, who gained great experience
during she war as counsel for the
United States Housing Corporation,
hes written an article entitled How
to meet the housing situation" which
appeared in the Atlantic Monthly, and
is one of the most comprehensive and
sane expositions of the housing prob
lem which has been contributed to
the problem. 1t is largely the fruit
of his experience with the Housing
Corporation problems. 1t is general
belief that If Mr.. Brighams article
could be read by all the people OF the
United States the housing problem
wsuld be solved.
A WORTHY STUDY.
II is particularly commended to
public officials in those States which
have passed vicious legislation
against real estate interests or who
may contemplate so doing. 1t Is a
confirmation of the position that the
most futile thing in the world Is
an attempt to legislate against the
law of supply and demand.
In opening his article. Mr.. Brigham
says.
towns of this country today th"re Is
an acute shortage of houses. and the
subject of relief OF the snor ~ase -
one of general discussion. bringing
forth large numbers of divergent
views with almost as many proposed
measures of relief. The United
States Housing Corporation encoun-
tered and studied all these problems,
and the lessons it learned should at
least be guide in analyzing the sit
ustion and solving the problem so far
as possible"
PROBLEM UNSOLVED.
After describing the housing short
age which exists throughout the
country he says:
1.-THE result is growing demand
for more and better housing accom-
modations, accompanied by a surpris-
ing lack of understanding as to why
the demand is not being met. In sew
erla States the situation is considered
by many to constitute an emergency
justifying the use of public funds for
building, either directly or by sub
sidy, and the radical regulation of
rents, Involving the police powers and
tSe power of eminent domain. The
housing problem, however, still re-
mains unsolved, because the funda-
mental factors are not known to, or
understood by, even many profess
sional real estate men,"
PEOPLE TO BLAME.
After estimating the shortage in
the country at at least 1000, 900
dwellings, he contends that the real
reason why the supply has not been
brought up to the demand is that
people have fought and have kept
down the increase of rental and mar
ket values Of improved real estate
that legitimately reflect the rising
costs of building"
Mr.. Brigham sees no early decrease
in the prices of real estate, for he
says that although prices may fall
temporarily. because of the present
inaction, as soon as building does
start, they will return to the present
levels, IL not higher

Says His Prescription
Has Powerful Influence
Over Rheumatism

Mr.. James H. Allen suffered for
years with rheumatism. Many times
this terrible disease left him helpless
and unable to work
He finally decided, after years of
ceaseless study, that no one can be
free from rheumatism until the &C.
cumulated impurities, commonly call.
ed uric acid deposits, were dissolved
in the joints and muscles and expelled
from the body.
With this idea in mind he consulted
physicians, made experiments and fl
nally compounded a prescription that
quickly and completely banished every
sign and symptom of rheumatism
from his system
TIE freely gave his discovery to 9TH
ers who took it, with what might be
called marvellous success. After years
of urging he decided to let sufferers
everywhere know about his discovery
through the newspapers. A. G. Luken
Drug Co., Quigley's drug stores 3 and
Yes and Now Drug Co. and Dafler
Drug Co., have been appointed agents
for Allenrhu in this vicinity, with the
understanding that they will freely re
turn the purchase money on the first
two bottles to all who state they re
ceived no benefit.-Advertise

McCray Family to Move
Into New Capital Home
Soon After Election Da,
(Ry Associated Press)

INDIANAPOLIS, Nov. 3.-W1thout
any ceremony or formality, Governor
McCray and his family will begin oc-
cupancy of the governors house here
soon after election day. November III
has tentatively been set for the
moving day." but all depends on
when workmen complete repairs and
get the house furnishings in shape, for
the McCray family is to be the first to
occupv the house as "the executive
mansion"
The big house, acquired by the city
of Indianapolis in opening its ooule-
ward system, was given to the state
but Governor McCray plans to REIN
burse the city for $4,000 expended fol
repatrs since the property was trans
ferred to the state. Some Legislators
complained that the house was moi
swell enough for a governors man
sion and that automobiles passed
along the boulevard within few fee
of the door
The last legislature, however, appro
priated $4,000 for furnishing the
home. permitting $4,000 of this to be
paid to the city for its repairs on the
property. In making ready for his oc
cupancy Of the home Governor McCra!
has spent approximately $4,000 for gen
eral repairs and improvements to thu
property, while the contract for the
general furnishings calls for S12,622

preparation unexpended.

less. And as we go back, the less
plays they saw until in the time of
the Mosques only one in many years
if ever.
So we have a peculiar condition in
our audiences dramatically mature
audience of youths; and a dramatically
youthful audience of adults. With no in
tent to strain for a paradoxical quip,
it is truth that the older a motion
picture audience is, the younger it is;
and again, the younger it is, the older
it is.
They Ask Censor.
These mature persons know nothing
of the history of the stage. its conven-
tions, customs, privileges, liberties or
experiences. They see nothing in mo-
ton pictures that has been common
to the stage for hundred years, yet,
because they are superlatively ignor-
ant of stage drama, they are Mortified
at something that is absolutely COM
monplace to the play-goer.
With confidence that only such
prospecting ignorance can bring, these
persons are determined that the pub
lie shall not see these things which
/ they think shouldn't be seen This is
the type that demands the censor.
So the censor now will have to play
with pictures for a few years until
they get tyrannical and are cast out,

AN OLD RECIPE
TO DARKEN HAIR
Sage Tea and Sulphur Turns
Gray, Faded Hair Dark
and Glossy.

Almost everyone knows that Sage
Tea and Sulphur, properly compound
ed, brings back the natural color and
lustre to'the hair when faded, streaked
or gray. Years ago the only way to
get this mixture was to make it at
home, which is mussy and trouble
some.
Nowadays we simply ask at any
drug store for "Wyeth's Sage and Sui
phur Compound" You will get a large
bottle of this old-time recipe improved
by the addition of other ingredients,
at very little cost. Everybody uses
this preparation now, because no enc
can possibly tell that you darkened
your hair, as it does it so naturally
and evenly. You dampen sponge or
soft brush with it and draw this
through your hair, taking one small
strand at time; by morning the gray
hair disappears, and after another ap,
plication or two, your hair becomes
beautifully dark, thick and glossy and
you look years unger-Advertise

try. One can prove it by a thousand
means.
For instance. Your hero is yourself
Then the national hero becomes the
one who expresses in the highest de-
gree the achievement the people of the
nation would like to achieve individ-
ually.
Until recently we were all fighting
people, and our heroes were fighters.
But now we have no soldier for a
national hero, even though the greatest
of our wars has just ended.
| should say that the popular hero
of America today is Henry Ford
When he makes some changes in his
plant and pays his debts, the public is
so interested that the metropolitan
newspapers print three and four col
umns on their front pages about it, and
continue to comment for days
| Now we will make comparison.
If a person were to show a motion
! picture ten times better than any yet
made; and he were to show this with
music better than any ever composed
| in America; and if he were to give
away as a souvenir a volume of poetry
| for better than any yet written in
| America; and he were to have painted
on each of these volumes a miniature
better than anything yet by an Amer
/ lean artist-do you suppose if this
were done, the newspapers of this
country would give it three columns
on the front page?
To Awaken America
Indeed not, and the editors would
! be silly to give such space for if they
did the public would be largely bored
For people don't care to be artists and
aren't particularly interested in what
| artists achieve
| But the hero has been changed from
the soldier to the industrial leader; anC
| think in so years, or perhaps hun
dred, America will awaken to an ap
probation of art When it does,
think the golden era of art will come
again for whatever interests us as
people, that we can do better than an,
one else.
Perhaps motion pictures will d.
more to stimulate this artistic interes
than any other force. One must re
