THE MAYORS MESSAGE.

South Bend will build twice as many new homes
mis- Il has in any other year OF history
The total viii reach least 1900 new dwellings
ED the achievement has been accomplished without
any strain upon finances or drawing to any extent
upon funds needed for other purposes
This the message which Mayor seebirt gave
20 the realty board at rs meeting on Tuesday. a
sort OF unofficial report the who are engaged
n carrying on this work
II that the whole story, It might be dull
reading But the big fine thing Is that there IS
for another 1900 year. possibly 900.
and that every indication points TO a need OF more
and houses every year for all time to come.
Those 200 new homes have. for the most part
been sold who will live IN them. They are
not built 10 rent to others or for the transltory
citizen.
A city in which the majority OF residents own
their homes is the true ideal Of an American
city. Such a city solves is problems for every
public question attracts and holds the interest of
he home There Is not the same spirit where
the majority live rooms or apart
ments with no anchorage to the city except the
present job with financial interest in it beyond
the end OF the week
city that increases through the building Of
homes by those who will live in these new houses is
a much better city than which shows a growth
OF buildings by those who rent to others
There IS room for rental profit in this city. There
Is a need for rented homes There is a lack of such
facilities for the citizens who will be here
before the end OF the year. But thus far the
growth In 1922 has been an owners enterprise in
which every invested dollar will be followed by an
active pride in every public project in schools
in government in public growth.
Perhaps. next year, the 1000 new workers who
needed for local enterprises will find the spirit
OF South Bend neghborly and so inviting hat
they viii follow the example of the 1900 who built
this year.
