Belgium Allocates 100 Million Francs for Workers Homes
The Belgian government approves 100 million francs in 1920 to finance workers housing. Loans run 2 percent for twenty years with limits: loan not exceed half cost or 6000 francs and rent not exceed 4 percent of total cost. Cost per house in devastated areas about 10 000 francs. A garden city of 100 houses in Roulers starts Sept. 21 and should finish in 120 working days. A Soviet wireless New Year greeting predicts worldwide soviet influence and victory in 1920, with soviets to expand to Berlin, Washington, Paris and London.
