Of American labor; an appeal to
organized labor for funds to assist
the striking British miners. and an
assault on organizations believed 10
be communistic in make-up. came
today from the executive council
OF the American Federation Of Labor.
The council said efforts were being
made by some labor men and others
to form commission to visit Russia
and other European countries for.
the ostensible purpose of making an
investigation Of economic, INDUSTRIAL
social and political conditions" p
I'VE seriously doubt the good faith

No Authority Given.
The council said its stand would
remain unmodifled until such time
as the federation. through its legally
constituted tribunals, clothed COM
mission with authority to make such
a trip.
In its appeal for funds Cor the
British strikers the council said the
money will be used exclusively for
the purpose Of supplying food, cloth.
ing and the necessaries OF life to the
miners families Their condition
was described as ';deplorable." This
appeal, It was explained, was in re-

It was explained that the council,
inspired by sentiments Of humanity"
had not interfered with contributions
to the textile strikers, but it was Of
the opinion that any contributions
made by members of organized labor
should be used for the purpose of re-
lieving distress among the striking
textile workers and their families.
1t was suggested that such contribu'
tions be made through "a bona fide
labor organization, so that they could
not be used in paying those "individ'
uai leaders who are associated with
the communist organization, and who
are hostile to the American Fedora

Accommodations Erected in
Six Months Exceed Record
for 1925 Period.
BIZ. ROBERT j. CoTTREI1L.

Housing units sufiicient to accom-
modate 22,250 persons have been
erected in the National Capital since
January 4. This total exceeds the
same period last year by about 9
per cent, despite the fact that 1925
set a record In residential constr1c-
ton In washington.
An analysis Of figures kept 1t the
once OF the building inspector and
the headquarters or the Operative
Builders Association shows that Al.
though the total value Of cOnStrucs
ton and number Of buildings erected
the first half Of 1926 IL less than
that cf the sanle period Of last year
and construction Of private resi-.
dences has declined about is per
cent, Accommodation for about
1000 more persons have been pro-
vided in excess Of the first half Of
last year. This Is due to the re-
markable activity In the field Of
apartment house construction, which
has increased almost 50 per cent
over last year.
This Increase is despite the great
number of vacant apartments which
featured the opening Of the year. An
explanation OF this boom In apart
ment house construction ID given by
the builders. They declare that
scores OF persons are building apart

been started by tailor. Q grocer, q
furrier. a lawyer, an architect, an
automobile tradesman, b lace dealer
and others. These builders, 1t Is
explained, have no expert knowledge
of the construction market.
The cumulative. total Of housing
units erected since January amounts
to 4,943, as compared with 4,500 fol
