V DOUBTS TRENTON R I OF HOMES Profiteering and Unrest Blamed for Scarcity by Chamber Head HOUSES HAVE GAINED 'lienlon, April 'J. Following a state ment by Major Donnelly, that Trenton Is facing a desperate shortage of houses, John A Lambert, president of the Chamber of Commerce, in nn interview yesterday expresses n doubt that there is an actual shortage of homes here. Mr. Lambert raises the question ni to whether the real cause for tho situation is not due .to n spirit of un rest and dissatisfaction, and thinks also thnt profiteering may have something to do with the comlltjon. In support of his contention thnt "some other cause is responsible for the present condition." Mr. Lambert says: "In 1010 the federal census gnve Trenton a population of ilfi.Slft. AVhlle not bfflcinll announced, it i gencrnlly understood that tne census figures for in"0 will hov a population of til. - 000. or nn inerense of about 1 1 per cent. In 1010 there were 1S.04S dwell ings in the city of Trenton. Hetween 1010 and the close of 1010 there were 4S.V2 dwellings erected, or an increase of -0 per cent. It would seem from i these figures tho housing situation in 1010 must have been far more ncute than at present for the building of 1110 additional dwellings in the period mentioned would be proportionate to the increase In population. It must, therefore, be evident thnt figuring the same per capita per dwelling in 1020 ns in 1010 is better off to the extent of 17o0 dwellings." , N. J.
