1 HOW TO CONDUCT
HOME-BUILDING
CAMPAIGNS
Since the armistice was signed the
United States has been taking stock of
conditions and the first fact recognized
is that there is a serious shortage of
houses, caused by the cessation of con
traction work during the war. This
shortage is placed by conservative esti
mates at 500,000 and it is apparent In
the largest cities and the smallest vil
j iages. Soldiers are returning front
France at the- rate of 300,000 a month
: so overcrowding will toe more and'
more strieus as the season advances.
; In view of present needs and as a
i means of furnishing employeincnt to
men discharged fro mtbe service, the'
United States Depart ,iki t >: Labor
has been conducting a building cam-j
pnign since the beginning of the war.;
Building affects many trades and is!
the industry most likey to provide
employment for all types of men sinct
it stimulates local business while it as
suros wages for skilled and unskilled,
labor. A return to normal standards
of construction means that whole com
munities will benefit and that pros
i peritv will be assured. ,
i As part of its general building cam
i paign the United States Department
: of Labor has organized an own your
; own home branch, and this part of the
: campaign work gives promise of con
, stantly increasing success. Cities have j
j taken it up and with the cooperation of i
jcivic organizations and individual? ex
i tensive operations have been started.
During the war most communities.
! have been educated in ways of prose- j
j c-uting the so-called “drive.” It is;
i therefore an easy -matter to profit by.
j exi>erieuce gained in Liberty Bond, >
Red Cross. and other campaigns and
: to prosecute home-owning and home-:
building campaigns that appeal to
purtly local interests.
The success of an own your own
home campaign depends on three
things: First, the actual need of
’ buildings in a given community; see
j ond. the organization through which
5 the campaign is carritd on; and, third,
| publicity.
! If a community is fortunate enough
| to have adequate housing facilities for
its population, manifestly an own yocr
] own home campaign will not promise
success, -but wherever there is a short
age the campaign should be under
taken from the point of view of civic
and social betterment. The directing
organization therefore should have a!
personnel made up of men and women
who enjoy the confidtnce of people of
every sort. Since the prospective:
home builders' interest equals, if it t
does not surpass in importanct, the
! combined interests of other elements
j in the campaign, they should have
| representation on the general commit
, tee and on subcommittees, Wherever
] labor is organized the unions should
| be liberally represented.
The directing machinery for an
own your own home campaign should
be a general committee with the mayor
or some one who could represent him
as chairman. It is often advisable to
have the general committee composed i
of the chairmen of subcommittees.:
Second in importance to the general
committee is the subcommittee on
finance, which may be drown from
representatives of local banking In-:
stitutions and business concerns able
to promote the building industry.
The United States Department of
Labor has prepared for distribution
on request a manual ^containing a de
tail instruction for conducting own
your own home campaigns.
CLUBWOMEN ENLIST IN
BUILDING CAMPAIGN I
! Club women in all parts of the
; country arc pledging aid to the Own
Your Own Home campaign now being
i carried on by the United States De
! partment of Labor.
Mrs. Josiah Evans Cowles, president
• of the General Federation, telegraphed
| that the federation would be glad to
cooperate through the civics depart
ment. of which Mrs. Bessie Leach
Priddy is chairman. Mrs. Priddy, on
the initiative of the club women, had
sent out a circular letter advocating
this line of activity before receiving
j notice of the Government campaign.
From the various presidents of State
federations assurances of hearty sup
port have been sent to the Division of
Public Works and Construction Devel
opment, information and Education,
and Education Service of the depart
ment.
Ohio, one of the first States from
which a message was transmitted,
gives encouragement, through the
State president, Mrs. Prentice E. Rood,
who has been urging district presi
dents to do all possible in the work of
forwarding thr 'building movement.
From North Dakota the promise of
assistance is given as follows: "At:
this time, during the great reconstruc
tion period of our Nation, we are
proud to play a part in so worthy a
cause. We a>ssure you of our earnest
and willing cooperation."
Oklahoma .has sent a message do-1
daring that its support can top do-!
pended on, and Rhodpi Island has given :
hearty assent to the Request for aid. !
The South ■Carolina Federation.,
thropgh the presdent, M-rs. Leroy
Springs, announced its enlistment In1
the movement.
The New York City Federation of1
Women’s Clubs lias taken part in the
campaign and will cooperate in evert’
way possible. Mrs. Harry Lilly, the
president, has advocated the building
plan from the platform, and Mrs.
George A. Allin, chairman of the pa
triotic committee, has put it on the
suggested programs.

Money still talks, but contact with
the high cost of living seems to have
given it throat trouble.—Arkansas
Gazette.
Mr. and Mrs. Robert Speck, formerly

$5,000 and are now in Seattle.

Anchorage merchants, realizing $600
on the produce.
