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."

MORRIS' REPORTS
FAVOR KOLCHAK
His Cabinet Doing Their Best
to Establish Civil Govern
ment, Our Envoy Finds
Washington, July 30. 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.
General Knox, chief of the British
military mission here, left for Omsk
on July 16.
