REAL ESTATE., B. & L. Survey Decides Costs for Families Earning $100 to $400 a Month. Paying two years’' sajary for the “keys” to his own home i sound economics for the American working man, according to the Home Bullding and Home Owning Committee of the United States Building and Loan League. This is its 1031 answer to the ancient question, “How much shall a man pay for his home,” based on a survey conducted among the league's Nation-wide membership. ‘The questionnaire sent out by the committee asked estimates on capital costs of a home to be undertaken by families earning from $100 to $400 a month. Answers from Honolulu and from cities from Portland, Me,, to Portland, Oreg., held that the head of the family might jingle the keys to his own $4,000 home in pockets where the maximum receipts a are $175 a month. This ratio, 1.9 times h the annual income, held true between 3 estimated home costs and salaries from * || 8175 to $400 a month. For incomes of $100 and $150 a month the average estimate of suitable home costs was 1.75 times the year's income. ‘These figures came from associations in towns of more than 20,000. Slightly lower estimates are reported from bullding and loan officials in smaller towns. Simultaneously with the publication of the survey results, the Home Build- ing and Home Owning Committee of the league emphasized the need for every prospective home buyer to counsel with experts in house financing before deciding on the capital cost of the home. Many of the replies to the questionnaire stated that too many per- sonal factors entered into every indi- vidual cese for any general estimate to be made. Employment Essential. “In many cases more than twice the vear's income may be invested safely in a home,” the committee members agree. “When a man is using his pay- ments on his home as his plan of systematic savings, including that pi of his budget set aside for savings as well as that set aside for shelter in the amount paid each month to a building and loan association, his home costs mav reasonably be greater than | ‘The home owner 415 CEDAR STREET Takoma Park, D.

Building and loan officials, on the other hand, have a well grounded knowledge of the exterior factors, such as the standard of living in particular localities, the building costs there, the rate of texation, etc. “When the would-be home buyer has supplied information about the size of his family, the most important singie factor, the building and loan official can give sound advice about costs to be contracted for. The methods of financing the home loan, whether or not junior loans will be necessary, and the method of purchase, whether upon a cash basis, with first mortgage only or first and second mortgage, are also to be contidered in the capital cost decision.

In other countries the listener pays for his programs by an arbitrary tax on his recelving set. Warranted or not, the wave of public resentment against commercialization of - broadcasting is ingreasing. It is evidenced in communications received by the Federal Radio Commission, as well as by those closely associated with the industry. Listening, it is reported in some quarters, already has been greatly reduced, and this is attributed to an excess of advertising blurbs. Such personages as Dr. Lee De For- est, inventor of the vacuum tube, and Ira E. Robinson of the Federal Radio Commission have stated that a “revo- lution” of Ilisteners against commer- cialization is brewing. And many oth- ers have fallen into line. Another who envisions the fall of the “American plan” of broadcasting unless conditions are alleviated forthwith is Volney D. Hurd, president of the Na- tional Radio Editors’ Association and radio editor of the Christian Science Monitor. Although, he states, both systems are good 1if properly conducted, events in Canada and many rumblings in the United States indicate that the Ameri- can plan is not turning out the results it should because of “too much adver-| tising talk and too much mediocre pro- gram material.” Canada, he points out, has been using a modified American plan, operating its stations by adver- tising but charging a small annual li- cense fee to listeners to support the cost of radio administration. “Canada’s radio commission, ap- pointed to study this problem,” he adds, “has recommended government control. Canadians, not only getting advertising from their own stations but being bom- barded across the border by a mass of American advertising entertainment, are now definitely moving to adopt the gov- ermnment control—or listener tax— megood. “Some 40 newspapers have already pledged their support to the plan. Na- tlonal organizations, university profe sors and financial, labor and industrial groups are out to further the cause.” As to the United States, Mr. Hurd states that with so many American' newspapers now opposed to radio, it would not be difficult for an organized effort to be made to convert the Ameri- can plan now in use into a Govern ment controlled plan, with a 24-hour- a-day choice of t or four programs, minus all advertisements. With some | 13,000,000 sets in use in this country, only a very small tax would have to be adopted to give the best in talent and entertainment, he points out. “It is difficult to believe that the American radio casting interests will fail to see the trend in which Canada is leading the way, and, seeing it, take immediate steps to remove those things from radio casting which feed energy to such a movement. Unless such steps are taken, however, the Government control movement will probably spread to the United States.” (Copyright, 1931, by the Consolidated Press.)
