Not more than  11 a of the 376 applicants within the  boundaries of the city can be accommodated owing to the city's allocation  of ?300,000 from the provincial government not being sufficient to cover  all the applications, acording to a report which has been prepared by the  special housing committee 'of the city  council for presentation -to that'body  at its  meeting tonight.  The average values of the houses  applied for range from $2,650' to $2,800,  althougt there are a few more pretentious-homes which run from $3,000 to  $3,500. The council tonight will consider two important, phases of the  housing scheme. One will be the advisability of applying to the provincial  government for an increase of at least  another $100,000 in the appropriation  of $.'',00,000 for homes for returned  men. Another matter will he the appointment of a consulting architect to  the city building inspector's -department in-order to prepare and supervise the plans for these soldier's homes  and. generally oversee the construction.  be delivered to Mr.' S.
