F. Gaffney fis HAVE 8,000,000 s Telephone Area Now Covers 785 Square Milks London, April 10.—Recent. unoffi- clal estimates of the population of Greater London have ‘put the figures at about 8,000,000. The London tele- phone area covers 735 square miles, and the ‘metropolitan police district 691 square miles, and both are said to be growing rapidly. The distances across London, from various sections of the greater city, vary from 20 to 30 miles, Bir Kingsley Wood, M. P, speak- ing regently on the housing question, announced that the total number of houses authorized at the beginning of 1924 aggregated 198,808, and of these 52,109 had afready been com- pleted, Many Londoners were confirmed town-dwellers, the speaker sald, and a certain percentage of them always would be. They preferred the cinema to the country, and they disliked a long journey which cut into their leisure. Without imitating e worst fea- tures of the American skyscraper it should be possible to erect dwellings| with generous gardens or ground space and with proper arrangement for decent living, and thus work out an eventual remedy to help relieve London's housing situation which, for gen¢rations kas been one of the city’'s most difficult problems. In spite of ‘its growth,” London had 18 fewer fires in 1924 than in England Offers Good |1 Jobs to Ad.
