Housing Shortage Visloned By Coordinator When Cantonment Work Starts Frank J. Van Dyke, coordin ator of the cantonment civilian coordinating board, said today that federal agencies encourage the immediate addition of room or two and the conversion of spare rooms to the use of cantonment workers. This way of helping to solve the expected housing problem is favored by the government over new construction so as to avert a surplus of dwellings after the housing need has passed, Mr. Van Dyke said. The coordinator stated that It Is now evident there, will be an acute housing shortage dur ing the period of cantonment construction. There is an ex pectation that about 3,500 work ers will come here in the first ten-day construction period and that the number of workers will reach a peak of 9,000, he said. It was reasonable to anticipate that the first rush of workers will arrive early In February he added. Workers already are filtering in, he said inquiries about housing indicated. Demand Seen Now There is a noticeable demand for housing now, Mr. Van Dyke said in urging everyone with houses, apartments or rooms to rent to list them immediately with the housing registration of fice, in the tourist bureau at North Riverside avenue and Fifth street. A telephone, 4012. has been installed and a girl em ployed solely to keep tabs on places for rent, he added. It is Important, Mr. Van Dyke emphasized, that landlords and apartment house managers not ify the registration office im mediately upon renting a place so that inquirers will not be sent out to places already rent ed. He' asked full cooperation in keeping the records up to date so that his office might be of greatest service to both the landlords and the applicants for housing.

The present war situation, R. F. Kyle, secretary-manager said in his annual report, "means that every savings and loan as sociation, along with every other business, must think first of its obligation to the victory pro gram. As events unfold we shall be shown many ways in which we can serve the country which are not now apparent With the assurance of the full support of all members, we pledge that the association will do its part in whatever capacity that may be." Mr. Kyle's report said that one of the useful contributions the association was now making was promoting and selling de fense savings bonds, unis pro gram, he said, la absorbing a large part of the association's effort and has taken preference over the procurement of savings accounts. - The contribution which every citizen can make In this war is to save rather than to spend," Mr. Kyle's report said. "In the larger sense, the postponement of spending, whether by the way of savings bonds or other sav- ings channels, Is a move toward ' victory." Mr. Kyle, said in his report 1 that the association in 1941 had prosperous year of service to this community." The past year, he added, saw a growing popu- . larity of real estate, "our basic security as an Investment." He foresaw a greater demand for 'our financing service" than ! ever before. Max Peirce. W.
