Through the irregular heavy-line of each little diagram there has been drawn a straight linerepresenting the general trend of the volume of building duringthe pre-war years. In nearly every case there is an indicatedshortage in the past six years, and the area of this shortage hasbeen shaded to show its relative amount. [15]. Diagram 5.—Nine New England Cities.
