COUNTRY HOMES “HUGH IN DEMAND Roger Babson Advises Purchases Before It Is Too Late Wellesley Hills, Mass, July 22,— Roger W RBabson, advisor to over seventeen thousand of the country's leading executives has called another turn, In a statement issued today he out- lines coming conditions in the real estate fleld and advises the purchase of surburban property before it Is too late. About Realty Movements “The big moments in real estate usually get well under way, says Mr. Babson, “before anyone realizes what is going on.”” Because they have seen land. unused for years most people think it will always continue so. This is why the original holder seldom thakes any profit from real estate. The value is so close to his nose that he does not see it. A fundamental change in real estate values is taking place. So far it has proceeded quietly without much publicity. Few people have realized it. : The fact is that people are mov- ing to the country. A fow wise heads have discouraged -the bargains in country homes and they are quietly buying up all the land they want for theniselves and as much more as they can carry for a speculation. “My advice to those ' who ' want suburban real estate is to buy at once. For the past decade or more, people have been crowding to the cities, Now, however, a reverse movement to the country is beginning which promises to be the greatest shifting in population since the institution of the railroad. Within the next ten or more years the building of surburban homes should rival the growth of the auto- mobile, good roads, the movies, the phonograph or radio! Many Accommodations “In fact, these inventions make pos- sible the suburban movement. A few years ago country homes were limited to the rich or to those employed in the country, because only such peo- ple.could afford means of transporta- tion. Now automobiles have come within reach of the great middle class of people. They are increasing at the rate of more than a million a year. Ten years ago there were 1,000,000 passenger automobiles in the United " Don't Lose Your Hair Try Coficura 1f your scalp is irritated, itching and burning and your hair dry and falling out in combfuls try the fol- lowing treatment.

They are bringing new and better roads and opening up milllons of acres of hitherto inaccesible land, The more | cars purchased, the more families| there are who can have a suburban | home, even though the breadwinner must work in the city, Wage earnere | during the last period of prosperity spent their money for motor cars; in| the next -period of prosperity they | will buy country homes! | “The motion plcture has put the local town hall on a par with the city theater. The motor truck Is giving the | frural or suburban dweller nearly the | same freight and express facilities as| has the city. Motor bus lines are covering routes| which never could be served by trol- | ley card, Automoblles are bringing the schoolhouses and the village to with. in a few minutes of the country home, | Chain stores are carrying to every community the saine efficlent mer- chandising as the city dweller enjoya. | Last but not least the radio, especially | if developed on General Squire's wired basls, gives to suburban homes the finest city lectures and music. Tenants Dissatisfied “The reason for suburban expan- sion, however, is not alone the attrac- tion of a country home. In the cities congestion of dwelling house space and high rents iong have been brew- ing discontent. For more than five years now these conditions have exist- ed. Rebellion on the part of the rent payer is reaching the point of explo- sion, Almost any kind of a change would be attractive. Once the aver- age city worker realizes that with a few hundred dollars and a flivver he can get a house of his own with all the land he needs, the chances are two to one he will move! ““The city no longer has a wall around it. Railroads make the first breach, but the railroads opened up only narrow strips along their lines radiating from the city. In most cases the railroads followed the val- leys and lowlands, which are not the best bullding location. Between these lines are miles of land much more de- sirable for building but which have been inaccessible to the commuter be- {cause men had no means of getting {to the train. It is in these areas be- tween the railroad lines and within a radius of 15 or 20 miles of the cities, which the motor car and good roads have opened up, that the most spec- tacular development in new building should take place. “If you are interested in real es- tate the situation demands action! It means that {f you want to buy desir. }able suburban land near any good Icity at present low prices, you will have to go about it at once. In se- lecting such property, a good plan usually is to follow out the best resi- dential street and buy where land be- gins to sell by the acre instead of by |the foot. On the other hand. if you own city dwelling house property which cannot be converted to busi- ness uses, the quicker you get rid of it the better. This does not apply to business buildings nor to property which will soon be in demand as the business scction of the city expands. It does apply to other city dwelling houses for which such extravagant rents are now demanded. Remember that while the readjustment in indus- try is well along, the readjustment in real estate values has only begun. Industry May Move ““Some may ask why industry does not move to the country? Before many years have passed we probably shall see a strong tendency in that direction. Many businesses can be carried on in the country far more efficiently than in the city. This idea that all offices and factories must be located in the population centers is simply a notion handed down through generattons. In the old days, indus- try was confined to the city and the conntry was left for agriculture. That was before the age of modern trans- portation. Of course, it must con- tinue true in the case of distributing houses. Wholesalers, jobbers, mer- Spend Your Morris Cove reservations.

Hence, I would not dispute the point with anyone that business evnentually may tend toward the suburban sites. “For the present, however,” concluded Mr. DBabson, “the main movement will be confined to the buying of country resi- dences. Those who are planning eventually to own a country home should get busy at once, for every week you delay is likely to cost you money." LAWYER OBJECTS T0 TESTIMONY OF COP (laims Feeney - Is Interested-- Gourt Overrales Objection One of the most unusua! arguments yet presertd in the local police court was made this inorning by Attorney Stanley ‘Traceski when he objected to the admission of testimony by Police- man Thomas Feeney against Austin Szerpinski, charged with violating the liquor law. Attorney Traceski based his objec- tion on the ground that since Patrol- man. Feeney is detailed to the detac- tive bureau for the purpose ol ferret- ing out liquor violations and realizes that his job depends upon convictions, he is an interested witness. Judge W. F Mangan, who heard the case, overruled the objection on the ground that it was not well taken. The same thing might apply to a police- man, he ruled Szerpinski, who conducted a print shop at 74 North street, was raided Saturday night by Chief Detective Hart and Patrolman Feeney and O'Mara. On the charge of selling, the accused was fined $100. A ten days’ jall sentence was suspended. Woman is Jailed Rose Kaminski of Hartford was given 15 days in jail by Deputy Judge B. W. Alling following her conviction of stealing clothing on East street from the home of Joseph Jones. She was found with a number of pieces of clothing which Mrs. Jones claimed were taken from her line. Mrs. Jones also testified that she saw the Hart- ford woman take the clothing. The theft occurred July 18. Wolf Case Nolled Joseph Wolf, charged with assault on Mrs. Herman Papenforth was dis- missed when Prosecutor Joseph G. Woods nolled the case. He had proved an alibl proving absolute innocence. John Dobruck, charged with theft of a Liberty bond valued at $50, will be given a hearing on Tuesday. He is represented by Attorney David L. Nair. Refused to Clean Street Ernest Nyquist, a jitney driver, who refused to clean up some broken glass on the street in front of the National bank when ordered to do so by Traf- fic Officers John Carlson, was let go on a suspended sentence. According to the odirnance he could not be held unless he was responsible for the glass being there. He was advised hy the court to clean up broken glass coming from, his car next time a policeman asks him to. Margaret Planis, charged with as- |saulting Agnes Ambrose, was repre- | sented by Atorney Nair, who asked a postponement until Tuesday. The re- quest was granted. Prange Gets $25 Fine Emil Prange who, late on the night of July 18 ran into the car of A. C Barrows, which was standing near the curb in front of the Barrows' home at 338 East Main street, was charged with evading responsibllity. He said it was a rainy night. He was in an open car and wet, and was in a hurry to get to work. He is employed on a night shift job. He said he stopped but could not see how badly the other car was damaged. He was fined $25. Karp Up Again Herman Karp of the New Britain Clothing company, arrested at the in- stance of Secretary Ray L. Makin of the Chamber of Commerce on June 10, charged with. violating the itinerant venders' law, was represented by At- David L. Nair. Mr. Nair said Karp intended to conduct a perman- ent business in the city if he could secure a satisfactory lease, but that he could not stand for a “holdup” and intimated that the owners of the building where Karp now is, want an exhorbitant rent. Judge Alling said he thought Karp was getting a reasona- ble rent and postponed the case until October 7 when he said it would be disposed of finally.

Washington Policemen in Quan- dary as Regulation Takes Effect Washington, July 22.--(By Asso- clated Press)-—How're vou going to catch a law-breaking airman a thou- | sand feet up in the air when you haven't a plane, ballon, or even a stepladder to get him with? That's the question agitating the District of Columbia police today on the eve of the going into effect of Washington's newest and most stringent traffic reg- | ulation. | Hereafter police will he expected | to see that no flighty human flier skims lower than the fixed safety limit; that none of them attempt any fancy flying; and—worst of all— that every flier over Washington roofs {has a license. It's the last section of the new rute that bothers the cops most, for |there's not a single plane owned by the entire police force with which to lstop the reckless in mid-air to gruff- lly demand a sight of their permits; and what's more, say police officers, |no one on tha force sees any possi- i bility of there ever being one | Nevertheless, there's the Ithe coppers are scratching {heads to find a way out. The alr® traffic rule is the direct loutcome of the act of a commercial I'flier who flew s0 low over the assem- blage at the dedication of the Lin- coln Memorial, last Decoration Day, that he drowned out President Hard- ing's voice during his address. Pub- lic and official denunciation quickly aroused congress to the promulgation of the regulation and stiff ones now await the unthinking flier. While the order was issued month ago, the penalties do not go into effect until midnight tonight. It is provided that no flier shall descend lower than three thousand feet with- in the D. C. boundaries, unless land- ing, taking off, or enroute to another point; that all persons except United States agents, such as army, navy, marine corps and mail filers, must be duly lieensed pilots: that no trick fiy- ing shall be attempted under any cir- cumstances, and that aviators shall land only at designated fields. Qualified pilots will be granted free licenses by the district commission- ers, and licenses issued by any law- fully created board of any state or by any branch of the federal govern- ment will be accepted In qualifica- tion. However, pilots passing over the district without descending into the safety zone will not be expected to have a license Police officials do not expect air traffic to become a very great prob- lem for some time yet, so they will rely upon the integrity of pilots to keep within the law., If any of them try to pull the wool over police eyes by fleeing after they break the law, eagle eyes will mark their descent and they'll be nabbed anyway At least one such recalcitrant filer who made a nuisance of himself, as well as a possible danger, by fiying low over a crowded ball park and throwing out advertising “fliers,” has already fallen into police clutches, of- ficers said.
