Income Groups.

Nearly 5000 900 new homes have
been built In Great Britain since the
war, the ma jority being for families Of
low incomes, according to Herbert U.
Nelson, executive secretary Of the Ma
tional Association of Real Estate
Boards, who recently visited many
English housing centers around COL

suburbs of London. Last year. he
points out. $4,000 Of these medium

vate enterprise. and practically all
have been sold.
Mr.. Nelson says that many Of the
leading housing exponents with whom
he talked in England feel that the
construction of at least 100 900 houses
year will be needed for several years
to come, particularly houses for rent
to those who cannot afford to buy
There is. at the same time. he adds
a growing desire to see public build
ing stopped as soon as possible.

London Debates
 Windsor's Fate
Kings Dislike Bars Castle as Royal Home What
 Will Happen?

LONDON, Dec. 2.-The days of Windsor castle as royal resi- dence are numbered. The King, with the usual vigor he shows in his preferences, has said he won't live there. This is in keeping with his dislike of the place ever since he was a small boy.
 It is most likely that he will give the usual royal house party there for the Ascot of the coronation year, but, even so, he will not stay there himself. He will invite one of his brothers and sisters-in-law to act as host and hostess for him while he will motor over from Fort Belvedere to join them, re- turning home each night.
 What will happen to that enor- nous pile of masonry with the im- mense cost of upkeep? One plan $ the establishment of many self contained suites, similar to those at Hampton Court, which the King can grant from time to time to those who have given good service

CARD OF THANKS

Our hearts swell with gratitude to the beneficient organizations in charge of Judge Alexander, Chief Newmarket, Mrs. Florine Housel and Mrs. J. c. Thomas who have relieved us from the dire want we would have otherwise suffered through the loss of all we possess sed, representing the labor and savings of the better part of our lives, and must cause us to part from the good friends and neigh bors who have showered us with their warm-hearted sympathy and kindly acts and whom we thank as we do the Divine Providence that has spared our lives, our health, employment, hope for the future and many good friends. We extend our heartfelt sympathy to those who have been less fortunate and deplore their sad fate more than the loss of our home and belong ings, and are thankful for the abil- ity to pay all creditors who may mail their claims to us at Chicha- gof. And our hearts swell fervently with pride and thankfulness that we are citizens of this blessed humane land.
