WAGE-EARNERS PUT HOLIDAY MONEY Brokers in Suburbs Repori Heavy Buying Movement on Pay-as-Rent Plan. 50,000 GO FROM FLATS. Increasing Population Fills Place of Those Who Leave Centres of Congestion. He has been elected President of the United Real Estate OWners’ Associations for their new campaign against extrava- gant outlays in the municipal bude Home buying for the holidays began in large volume this week. Millions of Chrisimas money will go into small houses, mainly in suburban sections. Some of the money will go toward paying off mortgages on houses that have been occupted by the owners for several’ years. Much will go into new purchases. Brokers in all parte of the outlying districts reported to-day that the holl- ay trade i# becoming the heaviest in their recollection. They say that there has been lively hunting for houses this year, rather than for vacant land, and that wage earners everywhere are seek- ing chances for placing their savings into homes rather than in the banks or in corporation securities. New houses are being sought by those who are going far out in the subur' but the bulk of current buying involves older dwellings in the mld-zone of rapid transit. It 1s chiefly of the pay-as-rent kind, a small amount being patd in cash and the balance on regular instalments, THOUSANDS BUY HOMES ON SMALL-PAYMENT PLAN. Builders in the metropolitan district e sold more than 3,00 new dwell- ings to private homeseekers during the struction of small houses in groups of ten to thirty are plentiful in the Newark fuburbs, the Oranges and intermediate territory. NEW WESTCHESTER RAILROAD STARTS BUILDING BOOM. Another lively centre for high class Gwelting operations 1s the Wertchester section along the New York, Westches- ter and Boston Rajiroad, which 4s to be- gin train service eoon after the first of the year, Far parts of the Bronx to be opened by the new foad are leading the movement. The average cost of single 4wellings in that territory is far above that in other parts of the suburbs. The New Rochelle branch of the road will make the time from that place to Brooklyn Bridge in forty-nine minutes, according to the official schedule. ‘The istance js 19.95 miles. ‘The White Plains branch will run from one end to the other in fifty minute’, the distance being 20.85 miles.

More than 1,000 were built with funds furnished by the building and loan assoctattons. Fully 8,000 dweilings built during the year have been rented by the builders or sold to speculative or investment holders.
