Gus coast along the southeastern tip

tensive search for him since 1t be-

 In his speech of presentation, the ben efactor said in part: My sympathy are with the immigrant and with the labor ing man who is trying to raise family III releglous atmosphere. I have been thinking for the last 20 years how to bet ter housing conditions, and the result is the organization of the Chase Family Home Association.
 
 and MT. Chase says that 400 applications . for homes already have been made
 According to the article of associa- tion, the corporation is organized adn established for the general purpose of building houses designed for one family only Thse homes will be sold without profit to persons having family of not less than two children. For the pro- motion of its charitible objects, the or ganization may buy, hold, improve sell and manage such real estate and per- sonal property as may be deemed neces- sary i'll carrying on its work.
 The treasurer, shall if possible, be the president of treasury of some national or savings bank and he shall be a mem Der of the board of trustees. The latter i'll addition to the treasurer, shall con- such others as it may seem wise to in cluded and whose occupations and abili- ties specifically fit them to be helpful in promoting the objects of the corposa- tion. If possible the articles stipulate there shall always be on the board of trustees a member of the Protestant faith, the Roman Catholic faith and the Jewish faith.

(Continued from Page One.) we are to operate our business under the. closed shop plan we must have more cooperation from the Painters union on the matter of wages and working hours, or suffer the penalty of losing business because of excessive charges for labor.
