The Akron "Beacon-Journal' gave
the hunger marchers considerable
display, with pictures. and in not

mander-in-chief of the army, and
is striding at the head Of the Cleve-

close together, hiking five abreast.
They exchange banter pleasantly

None of the marchers is more than

ECONOMY STUDIED
IN HOME DESIGNS
U. S. Conference on Housing
Plans Program to Aid En-
tire Nation.

Better designed and more ecohoni-
cally built homes for families with low
incomes will result from the work of
committees now functioning under the
direction of the Presidents Conference
on Housing, according to William Stan
ley Parker of Boston, fellow of the
American Institute Of Architects, and
for the conference
Home construction in every phase
will be studied intensively," asserts Mr..
Parker. What we shall seek to find
are the inef1iciencies the uneconomic
elements which account for mounting
costs in the development of housing
units in different sections of the coun-
try today with a view to seeing how
those can be reduced or eliminated.
Work TO Be Thorough.
'sThe final conference Is to be held
when all the committees have completed
their studies. 1t will not be casual, but
will be as technical and as helpful as
possible. This meeting will bring to-
gether some thousand persons, with sew
eral thousands cooperating.
The present activity i'll the whole
field of home building and community
building is quite extraordinary. The
architectural magazines are giving a
great deal OF space to it. Many news
paper articles are appearing. The stead
lily increasing interest that have found
both inside and without the profession
in the work that the profession is try
ing to do, however inadequately. through
the Architects Small House Service Blu
r;au; the active discussion among bank
ers on how to handle their foreclosed
properties, the keen discussion among
the loaning agencies in regard to the
need of supervision. and the great strin-
gencY in the market today for funds
for speculative building. are all creating
a very healthy stop-look- listen at
titude of mind on the part of the loan
ing agencies and the realtors.
MANY scholarly studies are being fos-
tered not only by independent techni-
clans, but by various journals All of
this is epitomized in the Presidents
Conference on Home Building and
Home Ownership.
Seek Practical Values.
MANY people have wondered what was
going to come out of that and just what
it was; whether it was just another ges-
ture. a reference to a commission; how
much OF practical value would result;
whether it was going to be a casual dis
cussion or technical study.
The intention of the conference is a
serious one. The preliminary steering
committees have begun their meetings
These will continue over a period of
months or perhaps a ysar.
The Committee on Design at pres
ent has between 20 and rs members, all
architects and all members of the in
Stitute but two, scattered broadly so as
to represent the different sections of the
country, striving to get picture of the
basic problems underlying the question
of design.
I'VE are not dealing with the super
ficiality of design, of architectural treat
ment, but we are trying to get at the
economic foundations of design, the
controlling elements that should adhere
in sound solution of the development
Of housing units for the lower income
groups"

PLANE SERVICE:
FALLS-BILLINGS
VANCE INTERESTS START DAILY
SCHEDULE FOR PASSENGERS
AT LOW RATE

Borders Air Lines. a company
, which has just been organized at
Great Falls with Earl T. Vance as
manager and which was incorporated
recently, has started an air passenger
line operating between Great Falls
and Billings on a daily schedule.
intermediate stops will be made on
reservation at Stanford, L~ewistown,
and Roundup. The fare between the
terminal points will be SIS as COM
pared with a railroad and Pullman
fare Of Sl2.1S.
For the present a Stinson Junior
heated cabin plane with a capacity of
three passengers, the pilo. and baggage
will be used on the route. In a few
months. if the patronage justifies. a
six-passenger ship will be employed.
The plane will leave Vance airport
in Great Falls at 9 a. m. The schedule
as announced by Mr.. Vance calls for
arrival at Stanford at GAS. departure
$50; arrival at Lewistown at l0:l5. de-
parture 1920; arrival at Roundup at
II :05, departure ITO; arrival at Bill
lings at l1:45.
Return Schedule
On the return trip the ship will
leave Billings at lis p. m; arrival
at Roundup at l:50, departure l:55;
arrival at LewistoWn at 2.40, depar-
| ture 2:45; arrival at Stanford, 3:15,
departure, 800; arrival in Great Falls
at 4:10.
Stops at Stanford, Lewistown and
Roundup will be made On reservations
made either at Hotel Rainbow in Great
Falls or the Northern hotel at Bill
lings. Through passengers will have
preference in reservations, which
means that reservations from or be-
tween intermediate points will be &C
cepted only on condition that the
space will not be required for through
passengers.
A rate of $3.50 has been made for
passengers to and from Lewistown
either from Great Falls or Billings.
From Great Falls the fare will be $40
to Roundup and $3.50 to Stanford;
Stanford to L~ewistown. $3.50; Lewis
town to Roundup, SIS. and Roundup to
Billings, $3.50.
intermediate Stops
The pilot will not land at inter-
mediate points if snow or mud condi-
tions should be an obstacle to safety.
The distance of the route to be flown
approximates 205 miles. 1t is all open
country with no mountains to cross
and many places for landing. All
stop points have landing fields. A
hangar is available at billings.
Except for Mr.. Vance, according to
information, none Of the men who
are affiliated with Border Air Lines
are associated with Vance Air Service.
This gives Great Falls two air lines,
the other being the National Parks Air
ways, operating the air mail and pas
senger service between the Electric
city and Salt Lake City with other
Montana stops at Helena and Butte.
