previously arranged schedule at diff

route, such as a particular kind of

rents which steadily are soaring 10

which landlords are placing on

Detroit families from the congested
districts of the city out into tent
colonies in the suburbs. Z,
Recent booming of, the automobile
Industry has lured thousands of
persons to the city where they have
been compelled to seek almost any
kind Of shelter.
Not in years has there been such
q scarcity of houses for. rent here.
Thousands Of new homes have been
erected this spring, but they have
been sold as rapidly as completed
and now with the high price of
materials builders are curtailing
new construction work and those
houses which are under way are
being sold before being completed.
Families with children have had
an especially hard time. Landlords
have become naughty and in many
apartments the han has been placed
on childish noises and juvenile mar
ring of furniture and woodwork.
Families from the smaller cities
find it uncomfortable to herd together
in two or three rooms in congested
sections where their children
scarcely get a chance 10 play OUT
doors, and so they are moving out.
Now they are making small down
payments on vacant lots and erect
ing tents for summer, hoping to be
able to build a small home by fall.
Here is what one worker en-
plDycd in the Ford River Rouge
plant has done, and it is typical
of hundreds of others:
He and his wife and three little
children came from Canada in
March, and took two rooms in
house where there were twelve
other children. They paid $3.50
for these two rooms.

bill to buy this tent" the man SAID

buying it on the instalment plan.
We bought two lots and are paying
$50 a month on them. But we are
happy and the children are losing
their pallor and gaining in health.

heard that the rent had been raised

 TROON FAVORITES

LONDON. June 7.-The open golf championship. which opens at Troon on Monday, has tttracted more atten- tion than previous tournaments and for week golf devotees have been backing their favorites with the bookmakers.
 Walter Hagen and George Dun can are the favorites at to l. Gene Sarazen, Joe Kirkwood and Jim Barnes are 10 to 1 shots. Abe Mitchell is quoted at 2 to l. while Ted Ray, Roger Wethered and Leo Diegel are rated at 16 to l. Hoff- ner is down at 20 to 1. but Frank Ball, who did so well at St. Annes, Is considered to have only an outside chance at 50 to l.
 The course is not as hard as for merly, for all the rough has been removed. It has much grass On the greens and fairways which probably will favor the overseas players.
