BIG DEMAND FOR
HOMES IN NEWARK
Fall Renting Shows that Many
Are Coming Here from
New York.

Prospects for fall renting are reported
to be bright. A big boom is ahead.
AT the Office of Philip j. Bowers &
Co, 1856 Market street, MIR. Bowers said
today:
Our mail is becoming bigger each
day on the proposition of fall renting.
We receive a great many letters from
out of town, especially the upper end
of New York city and points around
brooklyn, for flats.
we advertised in the local papers
Oh Saturday and in the first mail tins
morning there We're about a dozen an
swers for information. We might say
that fully 10 per cent. of our renting
business is done with people from out
OF the State. They are coming 10
know that Jersey is the place to live,
and particularly here in Essex County.
1t makes people feel good to know that
moving is cheaper than ii used TO be,
and they are beginning to enjoy the
comforts OF life now where a year or
so ago they refused to do so. Some of
our new houses built and not yet com
pleted are o 60 per cent. rented,
showing just how people are waiting
for an opportunity for a place for
themselves"
AT the office of the A, l.. Cross q
Barkley Co, John McGhie said: "AlI
our apartments are rented, except three,
and we had a number of them. Most
-
renting about this time of the year, and
it has kept us SO busy that now we have
disposed of almost our entire list. Peo-
pie in New York and Brooklyn find they
can get better accommodations here
than elsewhere, and most of our bust
ness dealings are one with these folks.
The outlook, since the running time
from New York has been cut down, Will
mean a big boom to all people in this
city. not only in our line. but in every
branch of business"
