In an interview Mr.. Marcuse stated that this
year had been by far the most prosperous sea-
son the firm has had, and that, too, in spite of
the hard times. He attributes it to two ree-
sons-in the first place, because Alameda is
favored locality for homes; and, secondly, be-
cause the tighter the money market the sooner
do people of moderate means endeavor to get
their own home, when able to but the same, as
a matter OF real economy.
