The climax will be reached next Monday and Tuesday as tenants leave present quarters for new ones. The annual moving period is caused by the fact that here, according to custom, the great majority of leases expire September 30. The rather general shift of the popu- lation within a comparatively ~brief | period places a heavy burden on trans- | fer companies, telephone, gas and elec- tric power companies, which must clo old services and records and open ne: 38.

The plan has been practiced successfully in France, Italy, Denmark and. other European coun- tries for several centuries. It is only the adaptation of the basic principles of co-operative ownership to local Te- quirements in this country that is com- paratively new.” Mr. Dawson points out that since American laws do not permit the own- ership and transfer by deed of an indi- vidual apartment, it became necessary to adopt another form of ownership which would afford the protection to the owner that is granted by a deed to real property and also would permit the owner free latitude in the resale and subletting of his apartment, subject only to the restrictions imposed by the owning group. “This method, which has been in use in this country for a quarter of a | century,” he continues, “provides for | the organization of a co-operative | apartment corporation to acquire the | ownership of the land and apartment | building. It is customary for the cor- | poration to secure a first trust loan on | its property in an amount equal to| about 50 or 60 per cent of the value of the land and building and to issue cap- ital stock for the difference between the amount of the first trust and the This difference is known | total value, as_equity. | “The shares of stock of the apart- | ment corporation are then apportioned to the respective apartments according | to their rental value and are offered for | sale, together with perpetual leases, known as proprietary leases. The pur- | chaser is referred to as stockholder- tenant or tenant-owner, “The purchaser of the stock appor- | tioned to an apartment acquires a pro- | portionate interest in the land. building | and other assets of the apartment cor- | poration and the right to a proprietary | lease on the particular apartment se- lected, subject to the by-laws of the corparation. . “The owner of the stock and proprie- tary lease thus has a voice in the con- | duct of the affairs of the corporation.” “This Way Out,” Pastor's Topic.i At Tabor Presbyterian Church, Sec- ond and S streets, Rev.
