London, Dec. 3.—Rioting occured Of Embezzlement (By Associated Press.) Montgomery, Dec. 3.—Theo. Lacy, A Real Estate Board A Rea] Estate Board has been or- '.f:anized by the Lakeland real estate dealers, which would seem to be a commendable move, beneficial alike to the real estate men themselves, to intending purchasers, and to the community generally. The objects and purposes of the organization are set forth in the following preamble: “Realizing that this is an age of organization and that the greatest results are obtained by co-operation and concert of action, we the here- unto signed persons and firms, citi- zens of Lakeland, engaged in the buying, selling, and dealing in real properties in Lakelend and Polk County, Florida, do hereby formu- late ourselves into an organization, and for the more rapidly building up of Lake- land and adjacent territory. , Thefactors of the organization be- ing to estdblish and standardise the business of real estate dealing on brokerage and otherwise, so that it will obtain the confidence and re- «pect of both buyer and seller, to establish and maintain the dignity and responsibility of its members in ‘their duty to the public; to insti- a National Health Congress | lations, customs udy of the drug evil in the rtute rules and regulations, cus in the handling of real properties, to cultivate good fellowship among its members in heir business of buying, selling and handling real properties; to or- canize a center of effort, for ade- quate, economic and clvic develop- ment; to produce just and even tax- ation; to promote such a system of law and administration as shall pro- tect our citizens, encourage indus- try, and attract a desirable popula- tion such as our advantages entitles us to; to especially guard and ad- vance the interest of real estate owners, and to devise, advocate and support such legislation, state and municipal, as is calculated to im- prove our city, and protect as far as is possible the city, county and State, against the work of unscru- pulous persons, misrepresentation, deception and fraud, such as we see, ‘hear and know of being practiced to an alarming extent.” A number of the real estate deal- ers of the city met in the office of W. K. Jackson, and after a thorough discussion of the objects, purposes, necessity and results, harmoniously agreed on a constitution hased en- tirely on the factors of the above preamble. It is reasonably sup. posed that practically every real es- tate dealer or agent in the city who is eligible will become a member of the Board. The manner and methods of hand- ling real estate in Lakeland have retarded and are retarding the prog- ess of the city and vicinity, and a change is absolutely necessary if the development and progress that the advantages of Lakeland and ad- jacent territory are entitled to are maintained. Harmony, co-opera- tion and concert of action must pre- vail if the best results are attained, and such does not and has not pre- vailed with and among Lakeland dealers lately. Too much selfish- ness and antagonism has existed. Each member of the Board will have the privilege of selling all the -properties that he possibly can, but he must do it fairly and honorably, without misrepresentation, and hwithout antagonising the properties flered by other agents.
