Colorado Cloud Bursts

The current number of the Literary Digest
known as 'cloud bursts The explanation, however,
only relates the in which the earliest part of
the rainfall is retarded its runoff while the latter
part is piled upon it so that the water down the

According this article the explanation lies in the
fact that deep waters move more rapidly than shallow
waters addition this there is the further fact as
pointed out bv Chieftain correspondent that the
slopes nearer the mountains sleeper than those
further down the stream.
All this explanation relates to the phenomena OF
the water after it has fallen from the Clouds and not
to the conditions that involve downfall of rain so
great as to have received the general of cloud

Germany Is Short a
Million In Homes

BERLIN, Oct. 16 ASSOCIATED
Press MaiD-More than 1,00O,0 900
dwellings, apartments, or rooms are
needed in Germany to relieve the
housing shortage which has been
steadily increasing for the last six
months, especially in the eastern
cities which are crowded with Rus
sian refugees, says an official state
ment VI the housing office.
d. In Prussia alone 5S5, 900 rooms are
in demand an increse of $4,000 in
three months and reports from every
large city in the republic declare the
housing situation is growing serious
with the advance of winter. The need
in 62 of the larger cities is described
as urgent.
The government had indicated it's
intentions of abandoning the ration
ing" of room within a short time, but
the fact that building operations,
abandoned during the war, have not
caught up with the demands has ne
cessitated a continuance of control of
dwelling space Families, as we'll as
individuals, are permitted to occupy
only such rooms as are absolutely
essential.
This regulation has forced many ia
miles with large houses to take in
dodgers. In such cases the families
are permitted to choose their dodgers,
fix the charges and make such civ
ing regulations as are deemed essen
tial. The space, however, must be
occupied and it has come about that
home owners have invited relatives
friends or acquaintance to share
their houses, many being averse to
give accommodations to strangers.
On the other hand a number of
house owners, formly wealthy, have
