NEW YORK, February 5.-—Belief that the housing shortage throughout the country is directly attributed to priority orders for coal shipmens was expressed tonight by Senator William M. Calder, chairman of the Senate committee on reconstruction, speak- ing before the New York Association of real estate boards. The preference given coal ship- ments by the Interstate Commerce |, Commission since June has inter-! rupted the flow of building materials. he said. It deprived building indus- tries of adequate transportation, lim- | ited supplies below the demand l.nd‘ thus brought about high local prices of lime, cement. brick and other ma- terials, the senator declared. As a result of this condition and of inability to obtain capital for its operations the building industry, Senator’Calder said, has been virtual- 1y_shut down since last spring. Referring to the credit expansion of recent years, he asserted that these vast sums “must have been used for trading in consumables, hoarding, speculation and profiteering, as they certainly were not used for the build- ing of houses and railroads. The com- bined operation of excess profits taxes and tax-exempt securities has fur- | ther drawn money from fixed capi- In endeavoring to divert money back to its normal uses for the permanent welfare of the country, ‘Senator Cal- der thought, choice must be made “be- tween halting on national develop- securities has been discontinued or granting tax exemption to certain holdings of mortgages on homes un- til all securities are taxable.” AIR SERVICE MEN SAIL - _FOR “BLIMP” IN ITALY “Roma” Is to Be Brought t:: Lang- ley Field on Their Return.
