LONDON, Nov., 12— “American Sol

in France to his relatives in England
“Americana are the topics of con vet - I

“The villages are full of them.”
“Their : uttu obdi* trucks at *

DUBLIN Nov., 12— Construction by
the government of model homes for
the families of 27,000 Dublin work
ingmen is recommended in u report
just published here by Chief Engin
eering Inspector Cowan of the Local
Government Board, appointed by the
,ovi iimicnt to solve the serious hous
ing problem.
The proposal involves an expendit
ire of P.000,000 pounds and calls foi
the erection of 1(5,000 new buildings,
and the reconstruction of nearly 4,

The problem of housing the working

Some twenty thousand families, o
nearly one third of the city’s populat
I ion, live in single rooms.

erection by the government of lfi.00!
self- contained homes in the suburb:
