The Bloomington committee has decided that conventional construction is too expensive for all but a few in the higher income brackets. It plans to erect some of houses for those who can afford them. But the committee plans to turn more of its attention to the lower residence units.

One possibility is a house partially built in the factory. Such a house can be erected on low priced lots for around $7,000. It is possible that totally prefabricated houses can be built as cheaply or even cheaper. Clarification Needed. The drawback at the moment is uncertainty as to the status of prefabricated houses in Bloomington.

Crane, don't you think it is all right for me to go away to college? I'd only play second fiddle if I went with my sister to her school. Diagnosis. It would be rather difficult for me to resist such an eager plea, even if I disagreed with Mildred, but I heartily approve of her idea. Since there is hostility of a mild sort between the two sisters, and Mildred docsnt look with pleasure on following in her sister's footsteps, then I believe she should be allowed to go to the distant university. She feels that her older sister has always been given the advantages, and thinks that she herself has been deprived of color and attention, as a consequence, so she prefers to pioneer in a strange place and try to win friends without any "pull' from her sister.

Such a desire is quite natural and also psychologically wholesome. A Social Advantage of College. One very marked advantage of college is the fact that mollycoddles and "apron string" chil-. dren are given a chance to show their real merit both in the classroom as well as in making friendships, especially when they are sent to a distant town away from all parental jurisdiction. A girl of 18 should certainly be able to get along without fear that she will be brutally attacked by moron monsters, or kidnapped by white slavers, or seduced by "city slickers.

If hasn't yet developed enough social istration, is working night and day to put the finishing touches on one of history's biggest migrations the repatriation and resettlement of approximately 6,000,000 Poles. After nearly two years of work, he thinks his job now is about 75 percent completed and he hopes to write finis to the entire task by the end of this year. Into Wolski's hands, the government placed the exacting work of npt only expelling about Germans from Poland's old and new territories after the end of the war, but also of bringing back an estimated 4,000,000 to Poles scattered abroad through the tides of conflict in the last six years. Progress to Date. Up to August, Wolski estimated 3,100,000 Poles had returned to their homeland from eastern and western countries.

One of the biggest chunks of humanity still awaiting repatriation is 500,000 Poles in the British and American zones of occupied Germany. He estimated that 2,000,000 Poles had already been 'moved from central Poland to the west and that there would be 5,000,000 there farming new lands and running industries by the end of 1946. Recapturing Livestock. Of the total repatriated up to August, Wolski said 1,764,713 had come from western European countries and 1,300,000 from the east. Eastern repatriations started late in 1944 in wake of the Russian advance toward Berlin.

He said those who came from the east brought with them 72,079 horses, 159,761 head of cattle, 62,124 swine, and 82,045 sheep and goats.

On the other, they frankly promise that if the German people will only put their faith in the Soviet Union, they will be richly rewarded. It is even openly suggested that a right thinking Germany will regain, as a free gift from the bencficient Soviets, the eastern German provinces conferred on Poland at Potsdam by the grim insistence of Marshal Stalin. Seek Election Influence. The Soviets have been forced to this disclosure of their aim by the odd dilemma in which they find themselves here.

In their struggle to win Germany for themselves, it is natural that they should rely mainly on the weapons they know best terror r.4 one party rule. These are enough in their zone. But here in Berlin, which is jointly occupied, and in other zones occupied by the Americans, French and British, difference methods are called for. Accordingly, they must electioneer. The grand test towards which they are pointing is the Berlin election next month.

As an enclave in the center of their zone and as the capital of Germany, Berlin Is vital to them. Before they admitted their allies to the city they had carefully established a Berlin gevernmcnt dominated by tested Communists. But this government can be thrown out at the polls and indoed seems quite likely to be. The farce of holding elections in the construction here and the proposed new building code has not been approved by the city council. The code has been before the council for five months or longer.

During that time the council has made encouraging progress in arriving at a sane solution to the problem of admitting prefabricated houses. The latest revision of the code is reported to be immeasurably better than the original draft. Delay in adopting the code, therefore, has had some long range benefits to the city. Mayor Mark B. Hayes indicated to his committee Wednnesday, however, that the delays are about over and that he will recommend speedy action by the council.

Mayor Hayes declared that he feels the citizens have a right to examine the proposed code before it is enacted so they can present objections if they wish. He is right in that position. Time to End Delays. Additional delays should be kept to a minimum, however, and objections for purely selfish reasons have no place in the proceedings at this time. The community needs housing.

It lags behind most other communities. It can still get prefabricated housing if the council will act quickly and if citizens will recognize the seriousness of the crisis. The Housing committee is ready to start building houses as soon as it gets the green light from officials. The materials are already in Bloomington. There should be a minimum of delays in construction.

Every possible step consistent with practical democracy should be taken to hasten code action. In the meantime every effort must be made to complete the many new homes already started in this community. Soil pipe is one of the bottlenecks. State and federal housing officials owe communities like this some consideration in releasing materials. We got none of the wartime emergency housing.

We deserve preference on materials now.

The most interesting of the propaganda lines now being employed is the insistence that the Soviet Union alone stands for German unity.

Forrfgn Minister Viacheslav M. Molotov's Paris statement opposing separation of the Ruhr and Rhincland from the rest of Germany is still repeatedly hailed by the Soviet controlled German press. Meanwhile. In more subtle ways, it is continuously insinuated that a vote for the pro-Soviet Unity party Is also a vote for return to Germany of the eastern provinces. This note was first struck by the Soviets last January when they were bribing and bludgeoning the Socialists in their zone into forming the Unity party by merger with the Communists.

At that time. Marshal Zhukov told a meeting of reluctant Socialist leaders at his headquarters nt Karlshorst that Germany might get back the east if the merger went through. The meeting was secret, but since then the propaganda has become more open. In August, in a speech in Berlin, the Communist leader Wil-helm Pieck said that the "frontiers will be determined by the way our people tackle democratic reconstruction and elimination of war criminals" which is th local talk for voting for the Unity party. And underground, of course.

The village deacon was alius be purty proficient when it came to skinnin' one of his pious brothers early Monday morning' when his suspicions were at a low ebb fol-' lowin' the Sunday service.
