REAL Washingt ESTATE. ] 'THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTO on’s Growth Reflected in Real Estate and Building News N, D. C. 20 e b 2 1 _SATURDAY, AUGUST 15, 1922 NATION NEEDS FIVE YEARS TC BUILD SUFFICIENT HOMES Shortage of Dwéllings Due to Rush ofA Rural Folk to Cities and Suspen- sion of Construction. . At lsust five years of great build- ing activity will be required to en- able the nation to catch up with the demand for houses, according to a statement issued by Henry L. Brig- ham, chairman of the housing com- mittee, National Association of Real Estate Boards. This length of time, is needed . solely to make up for the seven years } of inactivitys which preceded the present building boom, no account being taken of additional construc- tion= necessitated by the average vearly loss by fires, obsolescence and inoreases in population, Mr. Brigham points out. “It is therefore clearly impossible to get the ratio of supply to demand back to the 1913 ratio for many years," he ts. “It must aiso be re- 1 that if one bfilds in a community values will in- se because of such growth. These eases may be partially offset by the increase in the purchasing power of the dollar, resulting in the fall in values in the terms of the dollar. It is, on the other hand, question- able how far the fall in building costs this last year is due to the inactivity in the industry and how much any appreciable increase in that activity will cause/them b Gtrengthen and rise again. Homes Under Prized. “The people of this country are in 8 strong current, sweeping them into already over-congested cities and into ¢ ever-increasing large factories, with the resulting loss of individuality and independence. Disaster can only re- sult if that current is allowed to con- tinue indefinitely. There must be a re- turn to the more healthy life in the country and to the homes. The auto- mobile may eventually become a blessing as an aid in this respect, and is already so aiding, but at present there are still to prefer owning automobiles to owning lh.eir own homes. “The great need of today is to im- press upon people the value of a home. It is the lack of appreciation of its value that is one of the large sources of unrest in the country. Employers and capitalists must real- ize that they must pay emploves enough wages to enable them to live Tespectably in good houses and, if nece: ry. must furnish them with such houses, just as soon as, or per- haps before business conditions may Seem to warrant it. Individuals must realize that the security, safety and ‘Wwelfare of this country rests upon the stability of the home, and that the way to have more and better houses is for all who can to build their own homes, and to allow free action of the law of supply and Jle- mand se as to stimulate building by landlords for those who cannot afford to buy.

Less Than 150 Feet from 18th and Columbia Road This section is rapidly developing into the cities of over 100,000 population in the United States, and they are, therefore, fertile flelds for agitation against landlords. The fact is overlooked that those who condemn landlords and are willing to use extreme measures to get their premises for the lowest pos- sible rentals are doing exactly that for which they condemn the land- lords, trying to get all they can for their money. “There are today multitudes of familles .in our crowded cities com- plaining about the high rents who are amply able to build houses of their own, but who fear a deprecia- tion of values. In spite of their com- plaints they would rather rent than buy, and they object to compensating their landlords for taking risks they themselves are unwilling to take. Buy or Build. “If every man who can afford to build a house of his own would do so, there would soon be a relief of the housing shortage. If he cannot af- ford to build, the next best thing he can do is to buy the house that he is in or some other existing house. The market value of houses does not seem to have risen in proportion to rents and they are therefore cheaper to- day than new houses. The man who builds, however, has the advantage of being better able to suit his own taste or needs. The man who buys an old house does mnot, of course, in- crease the housing accommodations, but he increases the number of home buyers, which is so essential to a strong, stable government, and by de- creasing the number of available houses to rent will help to stimulate some one else to build either for him- self or to rent through the strength- ening of the demand for more con- struction. “The person of small means and limited income who really cannot af ford to buy or to build even on small payment plans and who is suffering from the combination of decreasing income and increasing rent is the per- son who needs our sympathy and I'I('“"- It is the increase of persons in such distressing circumstances that is !a menace to this country. It is for them that all high-minded men in connection with the building indus- tries are now working by trying to eliminate the many forms of waste that have /continuéd to grow without particular notice for vears. Efforts are being made to revise building |codes, to standardize materials, to abolish agreements maintaining prices and restricting output and to estab- lish reasonable and wise zoning ordi- nances. Seek to Lower Costs. “Architects and builders are bpth working to cut out all unnecessary | costs of construction. These efforte variety of interests, but they are be- { couraged, for even if building costs { fall to a point where the necessary { building will be slimullled’ there is unlimited room for improving hous- ing conditions for all persons, and ! nothing can be more profitable to | the country. “These very efforts, however, have the effect of increasing the fear of falling values, which is the great obstacle to-‘be overcome besides the artificlal restriction of the law of supply and demand. It is true that the cost of building has very largely decreased during the last year and may continue to fall, but it is doubt- ful if it is wise, in view of the se- i W. P.

The cost now is approximately 80 per cent to 90 per cent more than in 1913, whereas, the cost of living is about 74 per cent, and the cost of rentals about 61.per cent more than in 1913. It is, therefore, clear from a statjgtical viewpoint that it is still chesfer to rent than to build; but it must be remembered that these are averages and that there are many persons, whose rentals have so in- creased’ as to make it cheaper for them to buy or to build than to rent, but_ who still prefer to-let their land- lords take the risk of the fall in values, which many so confidently predict.” Jameson-Built Homes RENTS IN BALTIMORE REMAIN UNCHANGED Shortage of Coal fixpected to Pre- wvent Downward Revision, Which ” Had Been Expected. Special Dispatch to The Star. BALTIMORE, August 19.—Despite the settlement of the soft coal strike, shortage of coal may have an effect on prices of apartment houses dur- ing the winter, in the opion of local real estate dealers. There has been no Increase in rentals of apart ments lately. . It is thought by some that, as there are at resent many unoccupled apartments in the city, certain deal- ers may retain the present rates in an effort to get or to keep their buildings occupied. Others are convinced that the oper- ating erpenses are now so high that any downward revision in rentals will be impossible. “We continually. face demands for higher wages from our employes and supplies are by no means reduced sufficiently to allow cuts in our rent- als” said the agent of one large apartment house. Most dealers expect house rents to remain at their present figures. There has been no increase in recent months, although polls taken throughout the country are said to indicate that this condition is pecu- liar to Baltimore. The 1085 of a number of war work- ers, who have returned to inland cities, and the building operations of the past year are considered re- sponsible for the unchanged house rentals. That the cost of operating apart- ment houses has been on the in- crease is not appreciated by most tenants, one dealer says. According to him, tenants do not realize the huge expenditures, which are neces. sary to keep the establishments in tip-top shape. The papering asked for the apartments, he says.

Real estate will be included among new study courses to be conducted this year by the University of Mary- land” in its school of “commerce, through the activity of the Real Es tate Board of Baltimore, it was an- nounced today. Edward H. Bouton, president of a large realty company, has been ap- pointed supervisor of the details. This course will be a part of the university's commercial _department Maynard A. Clemens, the director, said, was due to the increasing importance of real estate operations in the business life of the city. Among subjects which “ will be studied are real estate principles and problems, salesmanship, insurance, land ecomomics, appraisal. taxation, zoning and city planning, finance and credit, industrial analysis and office management. Local realtors and spe: clalists have been engaged to give the course. The Real Estate Board appolnted a committee some time ago to consid- er the course as a means of stand- ardizing the profession and to sup- ply sufiicient preparation to young men who desire to enter it as a life work.

The project includes the expenditure of thirty millions of dollars in land and buildings by Josiah Kirby. and his associates.

The foundation, the first of six units, extending over a frontage of 1,350 feet, is now being aid. Station to Cost $50,000,000. The entire development. is closely allied with the new Cleveland Union Terminal project, backed by the Van Sweringens of Cleveland. -The Union Terminal improvement, which includes a station in the heart of the city, to be entered by practically every “railroad and interurban line reaching Cleveland, | together with its subway approach, is cost in excess of fifty million dollars. This immense group of apartments will embrace every modern convenience. Heat will \be supplied from a central station located nearly two miles from the property. Refrigeration will come from' a central plant. All garbage will be removed automatically to inciner- ators. There will be no ice man, no garbage man, no rattling of the furnace, or smoke or coal dust. As a part of the group there will be stores and shops supplying every need of those occupying the apartments. There will be a modern market house to and an English inn that is expected to be a show place in this section of the country. A moving picture theater built upon unique lines will supply nightly amusement, while a guild hall over the inn will accommodate the social func- tions of the inhabitants. Four to Ten Stories. The plans for Moreland Courts in- diczte that they will attract favorable attention, not alone by_their magn | tude, but by their ~architectural worth. The whole group is the con- 'cepllun of Alfred W. Harris of Cleve- land. With brick, stone, half-tim- ber and plaster, the architect has written into the facades of these buildings the history of English architecture. There will be types of Georgian, Jacobean, Elizabethean and | Tudor so arranged as to give har- { mony and yet retain the character of these different periods. The land upon which Moreland i Courts are being built was reserved by the Van Sweringens, the controll- ing interests at Shaker Heights, for this purpose. ‘The units will range In height from four to ten stories, and the courts properly landscaped will project into | the line of the buildings varying the ) distance between opposite structures. All apartments over four stories in height will have elevator service, and the construction throughout is strict- 1y fireproof and soundproof.

' “We went“into this enterprise.” safd Mr. Kirby, “after a most thorough investigation as to the needs for housing in the city of Cleveland. We find that only 5 per cent of Cleve- land’s population today lives in apari- ments. There is practically no land within the city limits or closely ad- joining at the present time avallabje for single-house development. ] Applications Already Made. Investigation in cities of similar ize throughout the country showed that Cleveland can safely put 20 to 25 per cent of its population in apart- ments without exceeding the propor- tion maintanied elsewhere. “The first buflding will be ready for occupancy about January 1, and the North Shaker unit we expect to be completed in a year from this time. The applications which we are re- ceiving, both for the apartments and the business places, convince us that we have not overestimated the de- mand, and assure the immediate oe- cupancy of the buildings as fast as they are completed.” e REALTY BOARD TO DINE HEAD OF ZONING BODY Maj. Wheeler and His Predecessor, Maj. Brown, Both to Be Honor Guests. Maj. Raymond A. Wheeler, recently appointed executive officer of the Dis- trict Zoning Commission, and Maj. Carey H. Brown, whom he succeeded when the latter was transferred to Camp Humphreys, Va., will be guests of honor at a special luncheon of the Washington Real Estate Board next Thursday at Lafayette Hotel, 16th and 1 streets. The purpose of the luncheon is to give the members of the board an opportunity of greeting Maj. Wheeler and of bidding farewell to the former executive officer, who leaves for his new assignment September 1, it was announced today by John A. Petty, Jexecutive secretary of the real estate lorganization, As executive officer of the zoning commission, Maj. Wheeler will fre- |quently meet reaitors relative to zon- {ing problems. The realtor represent- |ing the interests of property owners 1is vitally interested in the operation of the zoning law and must keep him- selt informed as to changes that are {made from time to time and special regulations that are promulgated by the zoning commission, Secretary Petty points out. The Real Estate Board has been in- terested in the matter of zoning and some of its prominent members gave their assistance in framing the or- iginal regulations. In order to keep in closer touch with the development of the city as it is affected by the zoning law, the board created a zon. ing committce, consisting of Thomas Bones as chairman, with A. Britton Browne and J. H. de Sibour.
