HOUSES AND FLATS IN CITY NOT TO BE HAD S.uth fiend's supply of houses and flats for rental purposes is practically exhausted, declare local real estate, dealers and renting agencies. "The probable solution of this problem of extreme shortage in houses and flats for rental is the owning of their own homes by South Rend citizens generally." declare?

Vernon C. Hasting?, local realty man. Mr. Hastings believes that the time is not far distant when far more South Rend persons than at present will own their own homes. He also believes that plans will he worked onit whereby those of modest means will be able to acquire homes without undue hardships being imposed upon them. There seems to be a greater r.hortige of rental property in the- city than ever before. Not a day passes that every real estate office and rental agency in South Rend is not besieged with inquires for houses or apartments by those seeking homes. It is believed that the majority of the applications come from those who are just moving to South j Rend from elsewhere, j The South Rend Real Estate board is pinning to cooperate with the National Real Estate association in its proposed campaign, to be started early in the spring, toward the owning of homes by families generally. The campaign is to be made nation wide in scope, and will take in every city, town, village and hamlet in the country.

Orders for placing military guards a the Chelsea and Southern Pacific piers in New York harbor, went to the commander of the eastern department Monday from Sec'y Raker. This is in line with the plan for using troops to enforce the alien enemy proclamation along important water fronts. The military patrol will be extended to other points on the New York waterfront as rapidly as the places to be guarded in this way are determined. Regulars probably will be used for the present until the proposed new federal police fore? of a semi-military character can be substituted. R -ig. (len. Carter, in charge of the army's participation in the enforcement of the alien enemy law, explained Monday that the soldiers would be posted in front of the piers only and that police, watchmen and other civilian guards would continue to guard the piers themselves. The troops will be instructed to keep enemy aliens or other persons without proper credentials from passing through their lines or from coming within one hundred yards of the entrance of the piers.
