clared, would- be furnishing ships for
a Ions time to move the traffic of the
world.
From the fact that the Government
is calling: upon its citizens to invest
every possible dollar in bonds for the
purpose of prosecuting the war, it be
comes the duty of the Government to
stand behind the housing; needs of com
munities that are performing; the serv
ice needed to help win the war.
Yesterday afternoon, in company
with Herbert Gordon, of the Housing;
Committee of the Chamber of Com
merce, and representatives of the Port

was taken for a drive about Portland,
to obtain a glimpse of some of the

situation in Portland. He declared that
from a surplus of 1300 bouses in Feb
ruary none are vacant today.
Mayor Baker, in a brief address
welcomed Mr. Adams to Portland as
e. visitor whom it was a special priv

J'ortland on a matter in which the peo

the building of an industrial town of
