West Is Doing
More Than East
TO Help Housing 2
Providing Attractive Homes
at Rentals Far Below
L hose Here, Accord.
ing TO Wharton Clay

The West is exercising greater cf-
rort than the East in overcoming its
housing shortage. 1t is building
homes in numbers and at prices that
permit rentals far below those charged
for inrerior homes in this section of
the country. These are the observa-
tions Of Wharton Clay, commissioner.
metal lath manufacturers, who came
TO New York last week to attend q
meeting of the building construction
committee Of the National Protective
Association, an organization formed to
lessen the fire losses in the United
States
NO matter what rumors there are
Of empty apartments" said Mr. Clay,
"cvcry one knows they are paving too
much rent and reductions are possible
only by Increasing construction. This
alone viii bring rents down to normal.
Greater progress has been made
toward housing relief in Western
estate men are building attractive
houses in numbers so as to economics
in buying.
As member Of the national ex-
ecutivc committee Of the Own Your
Home EXpositions, I am most inter
ested in the plans now under way for
the New York exposition to be held in
April. | am very much impressed b.
the generous cooperation Of manu-
facturers Of materials in giving the
pubic chance to learn how houses
can be properly constructed.
Every one should attend the com
ing exposition and learn abou. con.
struction so that they can tell the diff
ference between house on poor
frame and a similar house, we'll built
on q we'll constructed skeleton.
Livery one should know that som
heating installations are economical
and save coal: every one should know
the advantages Of painting surfaces
every one should be able to recognize
the difference between good wood and
poor wood. These are just a few Of
the lessons the public can learn at the
exposition" "

Justice Crane Of the Court Of An

the reality is that what the govern

know the obnoxious clause, the nuis-

IS prejudice and educated indifference

to take contracts for a fixed sum as

All OF these factors, when combined
with the cheapness Of land, go to make
a hoaithy condition, and my advice to
