EEAL ESTATE. =" VALUE OF INDUSTRY LOGATIONS 15 TOLD Baltimore Leader Advises Definite City Surveys, Not General Propaganda. A complete industrial survey of a| community and some good, sound fig- ures showing that by locating in that particular community the specific in-| dustry which the community is court- | ing can make net savings in manufac- turing and distributing costs over what ‘would be possible in another community will warm the heart of the manufac- turer seeking a location for his plant. It will affect him far more than un- substantiated “greatest little city in the world” propaganda. This was the advice given by H. Pindley Prench, director of the Indus- trial Bureau. of Baltimore, when he spoke on “Recent Developments of Chambers of Commerce With Respect | to Location of Industries” before the’ industrial conference of the industrial| property division of the National Asso-| ciation of Real Estate Boards, in ses- sion this week in Detroit. Mr. French| emphasized the part which the indus- trial location plays in the community's grosumy. stating that new industrics ring new jobs, new jobs bring more mp\llllmns and more population brings icrease in land values. General Advertising Advised. “Community industrial location work consists of two things: In establishing contact with active prospects for loca- tions, and in service to prospects after contact has been made,” Mr. French sald. “General advertising is one of the most striking methods of making contact with prospects, particularly where large sums of money are spent. ‘We are all familiar with full-page ad- vertissments which appear in general publications. Where such advertising is well executed there is little question but that the average reader is impiessed | by the spirit and faith in the advan-| tages of the community so advertising. | “Having established contact with the pect, the thing to do is to furnish K!I:)n. efficient service so that he may be able to evaluate the net advantages, to his particular project, of the community in question, as compared with other communities. “Such an evaluation works down—or ought to work down—to the net savings in manufacturing and distributing costs to be made, plus the n<t intangible or supplementary advantages. A few in- dustrial byrea: merely furnishing data concerning their mfin communities, and not only such data concerning other com- munities, but even work out for specific industries comparative net costs of op- eration and distribution as between the various communities under considera- | tion. Such bureaus virtually offer the | service of consulting engineers in indus- | trial plant location. Intensive work of this character necessarily can be car- ried on only in the strictest confidence.” Warns Against Bonuses. Mr. French warned the location ex- that ‘the business of offering and financiel assistance from a community to a courted industry is ‘s matter in which to proceed cautious- ly, since such offers are apt to attract concerns which are mainly interested us go much farther than |4 AL L SUSTSSTRIRRIRRARAR AR SR R AR AR A R AR SR AR SRR AR A2 A PRETTY BUNGALOW YOUR CHILDREN CAN PLAY INE STREET N.W.

By following a few simple rules home own:rs can effect material savings in their Winter fuel bill, aceording to the Holland Institute. There is little or no expense attached to their observance, the main requisite b-ing just a little more interest in the heating system by the home owner. The following sug- gestions are made: Ash pit should be cleaned regularly, as ash accumulations interfere with draft, and lack of proper draft is cause of fuel waste because of improper com- bustion. All dampers must fit true and tight. If fire does not burn when check draft is closed and draft damper in ash pit door is open, draft is deficient. Chim- ney should be examined for possible defects, such as cracks or being clogged. Forced firing results in waste of fuel. Maintain sufficient supply of mol ture in indoor air, say a relative midity of 40 or 45 degrees.

The researches of the British Fire Protection Committee, carried out at its testing station in Regent's Park, London, W., have demonstrated conclusively the fire-resisting properties 4 of materials used today in cone struetional work. The action of intense heat on the three naturally occurring building stones ——granite, sandstone and limestone—is found to follow certain definite laws, and in considering these from the point of view of fire problems, one finds that the subject is rendered more complex by the very process of fire extinction.
