A man who sells land on impossible promises or by false representations is regarded as a criminal in 22 States. Silver-tongued salesmen who patt widows and orphans or any one else from their money for real estate deals; land under water or other such schemes can be put out of business in nearly half the States of the Union. The law has forced dishonest real estate men in 13 States to refund nearly $4,000,000 to their victims, says the Na- tional Association of Real Estate Boards, which has dirécted a campaign to oust unscrupulous and ignorant dealers from the profession. Real estate license laws, mostly pat- terned on the model prepared by the assoclation, are in effect in 22 States and a Canadian province. These re- quire real estate men to have licenses, and provide regulations for dispensation of houses and lots. In most States real estate licenses are issued only after the applicant has shown his ability to en- gage in the business. .Moreover, these laws see to it that tainted with fraud, wildcat projects, holders of licenses continue their up- right ways, for not only must the cer- as this. porch. siairs; 1417 K St. A New Detached English Residence in 14th Street Terrace Why YOU may enjoy the Reasons ! constant increase in ground value.

A real estate license law has been urged for Washington by local realtors, but to date the matter has not come up for final action in ress. Some real estate organizations that have fought the regulations imposed by the license laws and brought their cases to the high courts have pleaded that the laws interfered with the right of indi- vidual freedom provided for in the Fed- eral Constiiution. But the right of the Commonwealth to worry lbouwopu caught in fraudulent business d has been upheld in several of the highest State courts and twice in the United States Supreme Court, on the thebry that this is a matter of public welfare. ‘The opinion of the courts in upholding the license laws is based on the theory that the real estate operator, by reason of his calling, acts in as serious a ca- pacity in parting a client from his sav- ings as a doctor in parting a patient from his appendix. i Behind the license laws are. strict standards that set forth what is ethical and what is unethical in conduct.of the real estate business, and the effect of these laws is twofold. By requiring ap- dlicants for licenses to show proof of their ability to engage in the real estate field, the laws bar ignorant people who often, with the best of intentions, do as much harm as the unscrupulous. Then, by means of commissions to which de- frauded citizens can bring their com- plaints, the laws provide constant polic- ing of license holders who have gone wrong. ] Some States go even further and do not wait for complaints from the public. In one the officials in charge of enforce- ing the real estate license laws go out in the field and inspect tracts of land |’ about to be scld, and ascertain whether or not the “sales talk” checks with what is being sold.
