A REFUGE In REALTY.
STABILITY OF VALUES.
J. l.. Butfcnrieser Points to 1t as
Free from UphearaIs.

In his address last night "rhe Operator III
His Relation to the Real Estate Broker oeiore
the real estate school of the West side oIaiCi
of the Young Mems Christian Assoclauoil
Joeerh I. Buttenwieser, one Of the largest prop
erty owners Of this city, spoke at some length
on The stability Of realty conditions in Manhat-
tan and The Bronx In the realty field" said
NJ Futrcuyrieser. there can be no such up
rsGvals AS in other business calinss ana no
watering Of stock
-Ti is true that fictitious values may be placed
on real estate by dishonest methods. bun the
effect Of such dishonest practices on the Feal
estate market must necessarily be limited to 4
small area owing 10 the wealth and magnitude
of the real estate Of the city. Unquestlonahy
the real estate field IS the one field where sta
hility is permanent and whose investments are
always safe
IN the present upheavaIs shaking the finan-
cial centres Of this great metropolis the realty
market is about the only one which has not
been seriously affected. and though realty pro-
s-ress NAV be slightly checked by disturbances
in the financial centres vet its strength viii
continue unimpaired, and viii spur not only
those who have helped but many other persons
IN the work Of achieving greater and more
worthy realty movements than ever before in
the history Of the city. So long as this city re-
mains the principal gateway Of this country, so
long Il attracts me foreigner anu ~ ivS
real estate brokers' and operators are true TO
their calling. the realty progress Of this great
metropolis viii never be in any danger Of a
severe setback
To-day the city offers a mine Of opportunities
10 the realty investor, operator and broker. It's
realty glory lies by no means in its past There
IS room here for every honest. persevering and
wide awake operator and broker The source
Of wealth emanates from the ground. it has been
often said. and 1 hold firmly TO that opinion.
Real estate is a most desirable asset and IN
times ike these no other asset equals it. Some
people may he able 10 cloud the vision Of per
sons with whom they come in contact so they
cannot see the greatness Of the stability Of real
estate, especially I'm Manhattan and The Bronx,
but such persons cannot exert such an influence
for any length Of time"
Mr. Buttenwieser added that the business Of
the realty operator and broker was SO closely re-
lated to the growth Of the city that it was their
boundert duty to work always for better munich
pal government. Mr.. Buttenwieser then defined
the duty Of the operator in his relations with the
broker.
1T is the broker who brings to the door of the
operator the bargains he seeks. and the operator
should hold the confidence and friendship of the
broker as a sacred trust. He should deal only
with the broker who has offered him what he
wants. and not buy the property through some
other broker. The first and most important as
set that the operator can have is the confidence
of the broker. He win get it if he deserves il;
he viii lose it if he proves false to the broker.
