He urged ‘that lending institutions require & bullder to prove his ability and vision before financing on a large scale He described the operative builder as an organization which buys its own land in raw acreage and converts that land into communities by erec! homes. By buying land in wholesale quanti- tles and developing it as his sales re- quire, the operative builder can produce lots more_ cheaply than can the sub- divider who sells lots directly to the public, Mr. Miller declared Other economies effected by the op- erative builder, he said, are employment of an architect in annual salary instead of commission, purchase of building ma- terials on large-scale basis, by continu- ng employment of mechanics from year | to vear, by the cumulative force of con- tinued advertising and employment of a ales force by the developer.
