A 'building campaign, unequalled In Hcope in the history of Bouth Ameri ca, Is noon to bo Blurted In Huon Alrori, if the pradiOtlOOl of American bUHlneos and DOUtrUOtiOn men here are xueresKful.

It is not anticipated that American capital will cut a reat flguro in the building "drive" In which it Is believed that the expenditure will reach at least 1200,000,000. Ruonos Aires really Is "In a bud way" for houses and apartments. Con structlon has not kept pace with the constant Influx of new residents dur ing tho past year. Rents have soared to unexpected heights. lVw Apartment Houses. Apartment houses have not yet Knlned great popularity with the na tive or the Spanish-speaking resident. Kuropeans and Americans are per fectly "at home" In them as long as they can manage to keep their mlndB off the rent they must pay. Few peo ple are moving.

In the very few apartment houses that have gone up In the past few years, every apartment was spok en for long before the building was completed. Spaoc w a i-,r Conditions are jnst as bad In one- family houses. Much valuable spice goes to waste from an American or (European viewpoint In these houses. The Argentinian must have his patio or garden which is located In the center of tho house, bounded on two sides by the front door and b kitchen. It would be a task of v. n" years to educate the people out of fho patio idea, if it is ever undertaken Huenos Aires is liberally sprinkled with magnificent residences of :i tlal type and great dimensions. Some of these homes occupy more pil id space than some of the larger hotels in New York city, and at least half of them are larger than the private homes of American millionaires on Fifth avetiuo and elsewhere. It is a common practice for a member of a wealthy ranch owing family to build one of these houses and furnish it. then never Irve In it. Many of these houses stand, monuments to the wealth and prosperity of the country, typical of tho pride of their owni rs and representing a misapplication of scarce and still expensive building ma terial and of labor, which if employed in a less pretentious and more utilitar ian cause would aid greatly in provid ing sheltering roofs for people in more moderate circumstances. Values Inflated. Real estate values in Huenos Aires are inflated. Several years ago a Breat property boom boosted the price of real estate. Then the bottom of prices fell out. but the greater part of the property owners, who acquired their holding's during the boom still retain t he boom -days' Valuation a nd decline to accept a loss. In tho poorer districts there are blocks and blocks of dwellings, many of which are nothing more than mis erable hovels. In these districts, al though ituenos Aires is generally rated as a clean city, the sanitation has been miserable, t'nder the Irlgoyen ad ministration much is being done to improve these conditions, but they still exist pretty generally. The modern office buildings of Buenos Aires ran still be counted on the fingers of one hand. While of fice rent is not exactly exorbitant it is almost impossible to obtain offices in the center of the city. When building is resumed in earn est here It is believed that attrition will be given to the lack of office space, and that the new buildings will bo of the modern type, patterned greatly after the model of the Amer ican office building minus the alti tude.

The bdjmb, apparently of dynamite, burst outside the wall, the blast oc- curing only a few minutes before the arrival of guests at the imperial birth day celebration dinner given by Vis count t'ehida to other ministers, mem bers of the diplomatic corps and other high officials and disnataries. Several arrests have been made, but the authorities admit none of the mHh pacta bas been implicated in the crime. They add there Is absolutely no olew whatever on which to base a senrch for the person or persons res ponsible. It was at first suggested that Korean malcontents probably committed the outrage, but this theory was dismiss ed as unlikely, and officials now agree It must have been commltteed either by socialists or labor agitator. The problem now is to find out who will win the coal strike, it having been demonstrated to the satisfaction of everyone that the consumer is the hlcf Joeer. Indianapolis News. cmiJm.
