" BY DON S. WARREN, Staft Correspondent of The Star. BOSTON, Mass,, June 25.—A mes- sage from President Hoover, declaring | that realtors have an outstanding op- portunity for public service through pro- motion of home ownership and a defl- nite proposal to insure investors fur- ther against malpractice by adoption of standards of practice for real estate appraisals, was before the National As- sociation of Real Estate Boards at the prening of its twenty-second annual convention here today. As the official program opened also |workm¢n were setting up in the Copley Plaza Hctel Washington's exhibit in the national advertising copy contest, the winners in which are to be selected for quality of newspaper advertising pub- lished by real estate concerns. Wash- ington realtors attending the conv-n- tion are confidently expecting that exhibit will take a place in the awards. Their exhibit is made up of advertising carried in The Star. Hoover Cites Home Field. 5 Harry H. Culver of Los Angeles, na- tional president, wrote: “I cordially share your view thsf an outstanding opportunity for public serv- ice awaits the reallors in the field of stimulation of home ownenhlg. which is so vitally related to the health, happi- i President Hoover, in a message to { ness and civic pride of our people.” President Hoover is more than cas- ually interested in problems of home ownership, it is pointed out. He came into direct contact with this matter while Secretary of Commerce through the work of the division of building Commerce Department, and also for a number of yearsas head of Setter Homes in America, Inc. The Hoover message, sent from Wash- ington by air mail to Atlantic City, was rewritten there on a giant typewriter in letters 6 inches high on stationery 15 by 9 feet, then brought to Boston in a special plane and presented to the convention today. Standards of Practice Approved. ‘The board of directors of the national realtor convention yesterday afternoon at an executive session leroved the standards of practice for the appraisal of real estate which have been de- veloped over & period of two years by the appraisal division, and recommend- ed to the delegate body that they be adopted. The proposal will be consid- ered by the convention Friday. If finally adopted, the standards be- come the recommended practice for the use of real estate boards, appraisal committees and ror rellty appraisers everywhere. The d standards consist of a deulled statement of how lpprl(uls should be made, in order insure against malpractice. If ldogted they will constitute the first authoritative and complete agreement as to what is necessary in making real estate appraisals so as to safeguard the value, accuracy and soundness of the appraisal, it is stated. Move Is Important. Special importance is attached by realtors to this move, since on appraisal of real estate is based the security be- hind mortglfi issues on rell property. abuse of which can, and sometimes does, lead to wholesale losses to investors in real estate stocks and bonds.

President Hoover feels that'the Nfllfl system of flpfl‘l in Government | finances so far mt there un now be a return to the method of direct responsibility by hufll of departments in handling estimates of expenditures. The first impression of the Presi- dent’s use of the word “restore” was that there was some reflection on the manner in which the budget system was managed during the Cool ad- ministration ang ‘that the plac! of direct responsibility on the ents once more meant that the budget di- rector hereafter would have less to say than under the previous regime. The truth is that it was never contemplated that the department heads should lose their identity in managing the flzl:l.l affairs for which they were by law responsible, especially in administering the funds appropriated to them. Such strong personalities as Gen. Dawes and Gen. Lord had the support of the respective Presidents under whom they served and at times the director of the budget appeared to be an officer of greater authority than that of a cabinet officer. It is related that John W. Weeks as Secretary of War had an emphatic conversation once with Presj- a°nt Harding about estimates for the War Department. Mr." Harding- is re- ported to have said that the director of the standing army could be reduced and money saved, whereas Mr. Weeks contended that the recommendations of the War Department be accepted. Accept Weeks’ Program. “If you think the director of th budget,” said Mr. Weeks, “knows mor: about the way the War Department should be run than I do, then you need another Secretary of War.” That ended the dlscus!lnn and Mr. Weeks' program was accepted. There have been other cases in which cabinet officers, feeling that Ihey knew their own departments intimately, have clashed wlth the director of the buc- With the emphasis given to econ- omy the Coolidge administra- tion it trequenny became the province of the director of the budget to decide what estimates should be approved, and this meant really deciding questions of policy. Technically, the director of the budget did not supersede a cabinet officer, but his advice as a rule was received by the President, who in turn exercised his authority over the depart- ment by siding with the director of the budget.

Mr. Pilene also predicted greater apt plication of the principle of co-operative ownership of homes and the develop- ment of great companies owning chains of apartment houses. He condemned lack of scientific planning of modern cities and declared this was the cause of waste which would run into a stag- gering figure if it could be computed. Ben T.
