HOMES FOR WORKERS Badly Needed In and About Daniel® son—Some New Houses, But Not Enough. S A winter of unsurpassed prosperity is just ahead for the people of the town of Killingly. Inquiries among manufacturers brings the information that they are rushed with orders. some plants having enough busin booked to keep them busy all throush 1918. This means continued growth of the town's commercitl interests during the coming year and more building, with good prospects of further ex- pansion of operations by some manu- facturing concerns. The one fly in the ointment is. the lack of homes for many families who would like to come to Danielsan to live, More homes have been constructed in town this year than in any previous vear in the town's histary. yet the supply of rents is far behind the demand. Building on a much larger scale is held up by a number of very important reasons, among them exceeding cost for materi- Is, high labor casts, difficulty in get- ting material and pressure for work on building concerns. At the present time many familles who have members working in manu- facturing plants here are obliged to makg their homes in nearby villages. for o rents arve to be secured in Danielson. This situation will soon be somewhat relieved by - the making ready of a considerable number of new houses that have been built at In- dustrial place and which are nearly ready for occupancy.
