decision now even after the events

decision now even after the events
In the Far East have taken place.
In summation Of his defense after
three days OF criticism and reply in
general debate, Mr.. Churchill said:
II offer no apologies. I offer no
excuse and make no promises. I
avow my confidence was never
stronger than at this moment that
we shall bring this conflict to an
end in q manner agreeable to the
interests of our country and In q
manner agreeable to the future Of
the world.
II have finished. Let every man
act now in accordance with what
he thinks Is his duty in harmony
with his heart and conscience"
Premier Loudly Applauded.
The landslide vote followed, sur
passed only by the unanimous ISL
too vote he was given when he
assumed ONCE In May, 1910.
Last May when the government
asked support for its decision to
send troops on the Inflated Greek
campaign the vote was AT to 3.
When the vote was announced
there was a tremendous outburst of
cheering, and Mr.. Churchill arose,
smiling and left the House, fol-
lowed by other Ministers. The peo-
pie In the public galleries, contrary
to all House rules, also applauded.
The motion Of confidence was
that this House has confidence in
his majesty's government and will
aid it to the utmost in vigorous
prosecution of the war"
When the speaker put the mo-
ton, Admiral OF the Fleet Sir Roger
Brownlow Keyes, National Conserv-
ative member, appealed for unani-
nous voice approval of the govern
ment, but the three members of
the Independent Labor party-the
smallest party in the House-called
out NO"

being reduced by decentralization
Present plans Of decentralization
provide for 11,o00 or 10000 of the
$4,000.
1T is possible to move additiona,
people from Washington and il
should certainly be done with dis
patch. But there is a limit to the
number of people that can be moved
Therefore we are confronted with
the problem of providing housing for
$4,000 workers, perhaps one-half Of
them with families. OF that $4,000
the defense housing co-ordinator in
dicated that for the IL months start
ing July, 1912, and ending July
1943, private enterprise would pro-
vide 1880 dwelling units. The de-
fense housing unit may construct
$500 apartments and 1900 dormi-
tories. That will take care Of 27,00C
out Of the $4,000, leaving q deficit oi
$4,000 in this calendar year."
In planning housing facilities
for 10000 workers, Commissioner
Reynolds estimated half of then,
would be single, one-fourth married
but without children, and the re-
nainder with larger families. He said
he proposed to place 10000 un-
married persons in dormitories, the
10000 childless couples in efficiency
apartments, and the 10000 larger
families in individual or twin houses
The houses, he declared, would not
compete with those built by private
enterprise and selling between $1,000
and $4,000. Moreover, he said, he
would not recommend homes OF q
permanent character which might
not be needed after the war.
$500 Acres Needed.
The commissioner advocated erec-
ton Of larger dormitories within
walking distance. of the new War
Department in nearby Arlington
County, Va, to relieve traffic con-
gestion on the bridges across the
Potomac River.
Mr.. Reynolds estimated a total OF
$500 acres of land would be needed
to carry out the emergency program
2,700 OF which would be for housing
and the balance for schools, hos
pitals, police and fire stations and
other structures. He admitted not all
OF this land is available in the Dis.
trict, and that sites would have tc
be found In nearby Maryland anc
