Brits plea for house facelift

Article Abstract:

There has been a plea for funds for the British House hall of residence in the university city at Paris, France, following the First World War. The university city was set up so that students from all over the world could live in harmony. Other governments have subsidised their national houses. The British House was financed by a couple from Britain, Edward and Helen Nathan. The building is in need of renovation because it is in serious disrepair.
