I8 mkkx CUSTIS RENAMIED PERPETUAL CHIEF All Other Present Officers Retained by Building Association. BY EDWARD C. STONE. Marvin A. Custis was re-elected president of the Perpetual Building Association at the annual meeting just held, all other present officers and directors be- ing retained in office as follows Vernon G. Owen, vice pres- ident; Edward C Baltz. secretary: Franklin W. Harper, treasur- er: Raymond K. 2 Espey, assistant secretary, and William H. Dyer. assistant treasur- er. In addition to the officers, the f0ll10WInE yoin A Curtis. comprise the Board of Directors: Arthur G. Bishop, chairman; John C. Scofield, Dr. Wil- liam G. Shafhirt and Samuel Scriv- ener. The chairman of the board, Arthur G. Bishop, reported the most success- “ful year the association has had. *Qur records show an increase of $4.- 000,000 in assets. which bring the total assets over the $40,000,000 mark, a 40 per cent larger gain (han any previous year of our existence,” he said “We have been making our share of the loans in the District and taking care of all legitimate loan de- mands, having made over $12.000,000 worth of new loans, of which approxi- mately $2.000,000 were for new con- struction. “It can readily be seen what these figures mean in terms of giving em- ployment and stimulating the sale of building materials and supplies and all the allied industries which contrib- ute to the building of homes. At the United States Building and Loan League Convention held last week in| Cincinnati, improved business condi- tions were reported throughout the country. This will most certainly be reflected in the District.” | Edward C. Baltz, re-elected secre- | tary, has been with the association | many years and has now jumped into | the limelight in the United States| Building and Loan League, having| been elected second vice president at tHe annual convention last week. He is slated for the presidency in 1937 when he hopes the national conven- tion will be held in Washington. Mr. Baltz today predicted a national boom in residential construction, which | he says is already under way. That was the general opinion expressed at the Building and Loan League conven= tion. The delegates also felt that the | Government should turn over loans for housing construction to private agencies fitted to handle such financing. Insurance Man Honored. Dan J. Harrison was the guest of honor at a luncheon given by his general agent, John F. Cremen, at the Lee House yesterday. in celebration of his tenth an- niversary with the Washington agency of the Massachusetts Mutual Life In-| surance Co. | In his 10 years affiliation with the agency, Mr. Har-I rison has submit- ted in excess of $4.000.000 of busi- | ness. For 5 out of the 10 years he has been well up in the list of the company’s 100 leading producers. In recognition of | this service, Mr. Cremen presented M. Harrison with the company's 10-year pin. Brokerage Houses Crowded. Washington brokerage houses were erowded to the doors when the New York Stock Exchange opened today and quotations started off at record speed. They witnessed some very large turnovers in the opening sales. Brokers here say that many traders | who have been out of the market since | the 1929 tumble are again showing market interest. The volume indicates this is true everywhere. | The value of residential building permits issued in October showed a gain of 197.7 per cent over the same month in 1934, Secretary of Labor Perkins announces. The value of all construction for which permits were issued during the month revealed a gain of 78.1 per cent over the 1934 month and 17.6 per cent over Septem- ber. Many local bankers were absent from their desks this forenoon while paying & final tribute to the memory of John M. Riordan, whose funeral was held today. In addition to the District Bankers' Association delega- tion, there was a very large number of other friends present. The Federal Reserve Board's Ad- wvisory Council, made up of bankers from the 12 Reserve districts. is meet- ing here today anda tomorrow, the final sessions of the year. They last | meat here five weeks age, but made no recommendations to the board. Exchange Trading Active. Washington Gas 5s, 1958, sold at 105!z on the Washington Stock Ex- change today while Capital Traction | Bs again changed hands at 96. | Capital Transit stock figured in sev- eral sales at 16, a single share of Washington Loan & Trust stock moved at 197 and Potomac Electric Power , per cent preferred sold at 113. | Washington Railway & Electric pre- | ferred came out at 108'; on two small | sales, ex-dividend. The common was again quoted at $500 bid and $600 | asked: no sales. 1 During September, 36 registration statements involving more than $295.- 000,000 became effective under the securities act of 1933. This brings the total effectives so far this year to| $1.789,948,518. The Virginian Railway Is contem= plating refunding its entire issue of first mortgage bonds, of which over $60,000,000 is held by the public and over $5.000.000 is in the road's treas- ury. It is hinted that a new 3!2 per cent long-term bond may be put out. Insurance Sales Mount. Sales of new life insurance in Wash- ington showed an increase of 16 per cent in October over the correspond- ing month last year, according to the usual monthly survey received from ‘Hartford. Conn., today. This com- pared with a gain for the whole coun- try of only 1 per cent. New insurance written in Washing- ton during the month totaled $5,100,- 000, 66 per cent of the firms doing business in the Capital reporting an increase over October. 1934. Dan. J.
