NEWARK ON EVE
Of REALTY BOOM,
EXPERTS DECLARE
Suburban, as Well as Business
Property, Already Feeling
Prosperity's Touch.
NEW YORK INVESTORS
LIKE CITY'S OPPORTUNITIES
Not S~pasmodic Increase, but
Healthy, Steady Growth
the Outlook.

That real estate in New Jersey. and
particularly Newark and CLOSE IN
suburban real estate IS on the eve or
one of the greatest booms in years ana
upon a period of advancing values that
will return handsome profits for care
full investors, is the consensus of opin-
ion of not only of local dealers and In
vestors. but of some of the largest in
vestors in New York.
Joseph Feibleman, of the firm or
Feibleman e. Co., of 73S Broad street,
who controls over 5000 building lots
In and around Newark said today:
"This coming year will bring one of
the greatest booms in real estate that
has ever beer known. IN the meantime
there will be a steady, healthy growth,
and the rapid enhancement in values
will startle the population of this city"
Mr.. Feibleman said his company had
sold Newark property to persons as far
west as San Francisco, and to many
purchasers at intermediate points.
"This is evidence that aliens have
confidence in New Jersey real estate
said he. Our Hiltonia tract" said Mr.
Feibelman, "is our principal holding,
and we expect to clear out the remain
der of the 1900 lots we la there"
Philip ]. Bowers 81 Co, n of the
largest firms in the city, report a steady
increase In business and a very bright
outlook for the coming year.
Frederick Romano, of 1856 Market
street, reports several sales of two-fam-
fly houses since election, and many
large deals pending, which he expects
to consummate within the coming week.
'Real estate? 1t cannot blu ad-
vance said he<~3nspeaking to an EVE
MING STAR representative.
Daniel Alt, of 1872 Market street, re-
ports a very good business and said
that many persons who held back be-
fore election and were reluctant about
buying, have since purchased. and that
the number of inquiries for homes are
daily increasing.
The mortgage market is another
strong factor in the situation, and the
funds available for real estate opera
tons in New Jersey promise to be more
abundant In the future than ever be-
fore.
It will not be long ere the broad ex-
panse of meadow land. heretofore con-
sidered worthless, will be utilized for
factory sites, and will attract s%pecula-
tors from all sections of the country
who realize it's real worth and future
prospects.

rrrom a stan Correspondent

TRENTON. Nov. 1S.-Considerable
curiosity was aroused in the State
House yesterday by a visit paid to the
executive offices by Major Carl Lentz,
president of the State Board of Tax
Equalization.
The relations between the Governor
AMI the major are said to be of a de-
cidedly formal nature, and surmises of
all kinds were in the air. One was
that the major went to protest against
the nomination of Frank II. Sommer
for the State Railroad Commission and
mother was that there had been a
reconciliation between the Governor
and the major.
But the fact is said to be that the
major, as president OF the Tax Board,
a business with the executive, and
the business vas only business. The
major only submitted to the Governor
the annual report of the Tax Board
and some other details for which the
Governor had inquired.
