This la the underlying cause of the housing troubles, according to con- ference committees of various realty organizations, Investigations com- Pieted to-day show that $200,000,000 of this sum is flowing out of the market as the direct result of Mqut- dation .and retirement to other In- Veetment flekix, The normal net av- erage inflow of $200,000,000 new in- vestment cash bas disappeared, An this $500,000,000 has been traced to other seourities, such as tax-exempt bonds, on which assured income is much larger. Although reams have been written on the housing situation, experts say this simple statement of fact is all that is neceasary. It explains every~ thing. Without the money there can be no building. With this great vol- ume of money annually, all other difficulties could be overcome very promptly. To cure thie condition by legislation or in any other way within a few months is impossible. Polttieians have allowed the ew to run toe far for an immediate cure. The only qQick thing that can be done now-~ and thia, according to close \-bterv- ers is absolutely imperative at the earliest possible moment—is (> peas legisintion protecting the homes of the maasnes from the rapidly accumu- lating storm-bolts of congestion. ONLY ONE NEW LAW NEEDED TO MEET CRISIS, Only one new lew is needed—a measure compelling landlordé to keep hands off until economid conditions shall get back to normal. It fy re- warded as 4 war measure because the people who gave up business, time and money to help the country in war are entitled to the country's prutec- tion during the unsettlement Immoe- diately following the readjustment to & peace basis, Landlords a year ago were getting from 50 to 100 per cant. larger rents than thetr properties ever returned before, and it is maintained Ubat they can well afford to stand smug w with: out trying reer in pia 4 of the public menace involved pr) Tr rent gouging. After this protectory measure is enacted, if the politicians want to ex- periment with other legislation for bastening the restoration of normai economic conditions in the butiding cf homes, the responsibility would bo upon their own heads, fatiders and fealty operators have meny schomes to suggest, but as a body they have no great faith in such attempts, Contact with the market shows that conditions are slowly turning towards normal again, and that the only safe, sure way is to leave the rectification to be worked out in due time by the opera- tion of the laws of supply and demand. INCOME TAXES DRIVE OUT BUILDING MONEY. Of these secondary legislative meas- ures, the first and only one really needed, according to the inajority of expert investigators, {s exemption of all mortgages on residential buildings from both Federal and State inoome ital! tax levies, ‘This would stop the $400, 000,000 liquidation of such investments now under way in the reaity market, and also tend to restore much of the normal new investment inflow of $300,000,000, As & measure of public policy the exemption of hoine mor:gages would ‘woem to be unquestionably sound, be- cause the home is recognised univer- sally as the unit of our political and wociul life and the basis factor of our .| institutions, 31 would be $766,000, I for 19: .
