Industrial employment in West Virginia has fallen off within the last two months so that of 100,000 persons normally employed it is estimated that 50 per cent. are idle, according to the latest statistics of the State Bureau of Labor, The most im- portant industry in the State, coal mining, was the first to suffer, owing to the “no market” condition. It 13 estimated that at least 60 per cent. of the miners have no steady employ- ment. A canyass made by John S.

SIX MAGISTRATES HOUSING FOR 840 N.Y FAMILIES. AT $50,000.00 ost Half of Building Outlay for| Year in Metropolitan Dis- trict Is for Homes. Builders in the metropolitan district have filed plans for an even $100,000,- 000 total outlay during the first four months of the year, Practically half of the projects are for housing. They call for new struc- tures or altered old ones to make homes for 8,400 familles, or 37,600 per- sons. They show an average cost of $1,600 for housing each individual Against fess than $1,000 before the war, At the same mite, the entire year would produce new homes for %,200 families, or 112,300 persons, at a cost of $150,000,000. This estimate is con- sidered conservative when taken with the artificial stimulus imparted to home building by the tax exemption measure and the great natural stimu- lus of intense housing shortage, both combined with tho obvious Indications of much more plentiful supplies of available mortgage loans for the im- mediate future. In view of these conditions, oper- ators have started a lively lot-buying campaign, because they bdelleve the expansion of the building movement will exhaust the supply of sites in the hands of builders, this to be followed by another rush for vacant plots such as the market has not witnessed since the days of energetic constructional operations a decade ago. Speculators who were left loaded with apartments last spring, when the new Rent Laws stopped their profiteering so suddenly that they had no chance to liquidate, are now selling at much lower prices, because they foresee not only no possibility of maintaining rents at prevailing levels, but also the cer- tainty of a rapid fall in rentals by next October, provided builders con- tinue to put forth projects during spring and summer in the volume of the year's first four months. They prefer to hold building sites riaing in value under increasing demands rather than flat houses in which rents are falling and equities are shrinking. Manhattan building plans filed. for the year to date call for outlays of $33,250,000, of which» $7,500,000 are for altering old structures. Brooklyn comes next with $25,800,000, Inctuding $2,950,000 in alterations, The Bronx gets just ahead of the other two sub- urban boroughs with $15,200,000, the alterations taking $625,000. Queens scores close behind with $15,100,000, of which $1,065.000 in for alterations Richmond 1x spending $1,700,000, the alterations taking $123,000. Outside the city the four months’ gutlays cross $10,000,000, ‘Thess totals are under those of u year ago when metropolitan plans filed called for nearly $135,000,000. Lut the 1920 projects were largely for business uses because business con- cerns were willing to pay more for construction In order to get quick profits from their investments, Busl- as with its stronger command of crowded out homeseekers. the demands of homeseckers become more urgent, whereas |the business demands not only have been plentifully supplied but busi- jness Itself has drapped off sharply. In addition, the increased money availuble for building loans has en- jabled builders to do more for home requirements. In this way, time is bringing back normal housing con- ditions—doing so muoh better in every way than could have been ac- complished by any form of accelera- ~w tive legislation Reports to F. W. Dodge Conrpany, the Record and Guide and other statiatical organizations show that half of current projects in the metro- politan district. are for housings. During one week, among 434 opera- tipns & at an estimated t $15,182,600, were 281 residentt. at 10,800. Among contracts le’ for 240 projects at $11,229,1000 were 179 resi dential at $6,399,500. tburban dwellings stin holt the Purest and hae been the "SALADA" | TEA red at City Hall this A Popul ONE BURGLAR SHOT, TWO OTHERS TAKEN IN FURRIER'S HOME saneeenee 9 Police Battle 15 Minutes in Dark Room With Intruders, Fearing to Shoot.
