The Housing Question

To the Editor of the "Norta-Curna Dairy News."

Sir,—I suggest that the recently acquired addition to the Hongkew Park, (that portion between the Kiangwan Road and the railway), is an excellent site for establishing a colony of "Hutters."

The project should be handled entirely by the Council, who would look after financing, building and administration, amount of rents, rate-free, payable to the Council, can be easily calculated on the outlay. Community service and kitchen inaugurated would be available to any "Hutter" at option.

These are the general lines, and I put it forward for what the suggestion is worth.

I am, ete., FRere. Shanghai, July 16.
