BUILDING INVESTMENTS.
Heavy Increase in 12S Cities of the
United States.


Washington. Building operations
in 128 cities of the United States
during the calendar year 1909 re-
presented expenditures close to a
billion dollars or to be exact, accord
ing to statistics compiled by the
United States Geological Survey,
$93O,520,713.
That result is taken to be one OF
the principal indications that during
1909 the country recovered from the
financial panic of 1907 and 1908.
for the building record for 1906
was beaten 10 per cent. A COM
parison of increases and decreases
of the operations of 1909 with
those of 1908 is held to be unrea-
sonable, because, it is said, 1908 was
not a normal year.
