APARTMENT HOUSES ARE IN DEMAND I Commenting on conditions in tlx? I building and construction industry, , S. W. Straus, of S. \V. Straus & Co., says: "As a result of the shortage of servant labor, higher rentals and the increasing cost of all household supplies, a distinctively new ten dency has developed in the building industry which is manifested in an unprecedented demand for large apartment houses of the residential hotel type. Modern ingenuity has created this form of construction to the end that many of the objection able features and inconveniences of the individual home are eliminated. "The servant problem has been a vexatious one for some time and is likely to become more acute wiUi restricted immigration and a higher i scale of wages in other lines of ac ! tivity. The newly-developed type ! of apartment hotel furnishes maid j service and meals, so that In the ! family there is saved the inconvent | ence and expense of marketing, pre ] paring meals and maintaining a kitchen. As the supply of house - 1 hold servants becomes more scarce ! and the density of population in our great cities increases, there will be j a continued strong tendency to ward the construction of apartment houses and family hotels. "In the principal American cities to-day, many of the most important building projects are hotels of ! either transient or apartment type. In the various complexities of mod j ern life, it is becoming more neces ' sary for people to travel, and people also are traveling more as a means of education and diversion. Thene conditions are reflected in a demand for better and more commodious hotel accommodations, which ten dencies will continue with the de velopment of better transportation facilities. "There was a time when a trip across the American continent was considered a long and hazardous journey, but the day will soon come when New York and San Francisco will seem like next door neigh bors. for the airship is quickly an nihilating distance, just as the tele phone and telegraph have done. As a result of these various funda mental conditions. the present marked trend toward the growth of hotels of all types will continue to be one of the outstanding fea tures of the real estate market."

Dally re- i ports from American Ambassador Roland S. Morris, who was sent to | Omsk from his post in Tokio to i study and report on the Kolchak j government and the situation in Si- | beria, have been devoted so far j largely to the economic conditions between Vladivostok and Omsk. He 1 has pointed out the necessity for | economic aid, and especially for I maintaining the railway commission j that is noA- operating the Siberian ! railroads in order to permit of the j feeding and supplying of the all- I Russian armies and the civil popu- | lation east of the Urals. Ambassador Alorris has now taken j up the political situation, and it is i upon his reports that the full recog- j nition of the Kolchak government j largely depends. It was learned to- , day that Mr. Alorris' reports thus far : have been regarded as favorable to j recognition. He has brought out the j fact that the various branches of j the government have been co-ordi- ! nated. Admiral Kolchak and his ministers are actuated by the high- \ est motives, according to Air. Morris, ' and are devoting all their energies! to the firm establishment of civil government. Railway Commission Protest Violations Vladivostok, Saturday, July 19. '."he interallied railway commission here dispatched a formal protest yesterday to the Omsk government of Admiral Kolchak against viola tions of the interallied agreement re garding the operation of railways. The communication demands that the Russians live up to the agree-! ment which they signed and are a | party to, if the government expects I allied aid. The removal of Gen- I eral Semenoff from the zone where I he can interfere with railroad oner- j ations also is asked. The violations hnve chiefly been ' through the military station com- i mandants who sell tickets, allot cars and attempt general supervision of j traffic, a duty assigned to the tech- j nical board of the American rail- I way commission to Russia under the chairmanship of John F. Stevens. I The chief disturber is alleged to be General Semenoff, who appears to be the dominating figure in the Transbaiwal sector. The United States has furnished i $4,000,000 and China $500,000 for, the railroad reorganization, while the other Allies have promised funds.

"Too much" keeps you worry ing about how many cigarettes you can smoke. ml But you do want ENOUGH Turkish. H The extra large proportion of Turkish in M Fatimas gives smokers that delicious Turkish taste.
