0s6, 523. compared with s52,7ss054, for No
vember last year, a decrease OF q per
cent. This is the sharpest decline yet
experienced in any one month this year,
and no doubt represents 20 some ex-
tent the holding back Of plans, especially
since active construction work is not nor
mally brisk during the next two or
three months. few cities, however,
show improvement Wichita comes 10

FRANK CROWELL
BEGINS NEW TASK
Will Help Direct Public Attention
to Rickert Finlay
Property.

The through electrifcaton of the Port
Washington division OF the Long Island
Railroad is fulfilling expectations. This
IS indicated daily by the announcements
OF new sales managers by the active real
estate companies operating along the
North Shore of Long Island.
Frank Crowell, one of the leading sales
managers and advertising writer's. has
identified himself with the Rlckert-Ffnlay
Realty Company. OF No. l West 34th
street.
Mr.. Crowell plans 10 put the well
known Kensington property of the Rick
ert- Finlay Realty Company. situated at
Great Neck. with It's recently completed
harbor and waterfront park covering 2o3
city lots at the head OF Manhasset Bay,
strongly before the public. He further
says there is no question but that the de-
mand for fully developed home property
along the North Shore Of Long Island is
decidedly improved. Reasonable prices.
the recently completed magnificent motor
roads, over which Borough President
Connolly entertained many prominent
men in a tour OF inspection. and the
splendid transportation facilities insure
enhanced values within the next few
months
Next spring will see the best market
in the history OF Long Island" says Mr..
Crowell. ut will be a great year for
builders. The best known operators be-
lieve a healthy home building period is
near Owing TO the comparative cheap
ness OF building material and the avail
ability OF labor. they plan TO be ready TO
meet with finished houses the unusual de-
mand that unquestionably is coming with
the spring market
"Our North Shore property. with its
completed electric service. will be the
centre Of this home progress movement,
which always moves along the lines OF
least resistance. This gives the man who
can get TO his place OF business in the
least time so many more minutes for his
business affairs. Returning. he has moro
time TO spend at home. and consequently
more time TO rest and recuperate from
the nerve tension and business worries"
New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1913-12-21

sorted so that all slips with the same
block numbers are placed in one package
and arc then arranged in chronological
order ready for the writing for the index
"The index is written by means OF the
TYPEWRITER. and shows In consecutive
chronological order every instrument re-
corded"
Another official OF the Registers once
says in regard 20 the new locality plant:
ANY one interested I'm real estate
whether rs owner. mortgage or other
wise, can in few minutes find all the
deeds affecting piece OF property, a
procedure taking hours. more often days
with the old indices. Public records are
thus made easily accessible 10 the public.
With the extension OF this system TO
mortgages and all instruments recorded
or filed in the Registers office. the beneft
to real estate will be great; transferring
and mortgagng can readily be made, trans
actions multiplied and values enhanced.
The next step will be a simple addition
20 the records, showing at a glance the
state OF any title When this is done the
Registers office will be not simply n re-
cordlng office, but it will be the reposi-
tory OF real estate titles OF the County

TAXING SYSTEM

dollars 20 give the shipping places proper
docking facilities. accommodations that
our beautiful harbor. with it's natural con-
dltlons. have at the foot OF every street.
For instance. the city Of Antwerp has
appropriated 100000 FOR the purpose OF
acquiring several hundred acres Of marsh
lands. dredging the same and constructing
piers. and when they are through they
only have locks I'm basins.
AT most OF the European ports. owing
10 the rise and fall OF the tide. shippers
are compelled 20 build double deck piers.
and the use Of cranes is absolutely neces-
sary for the loading or unloading OF all
vessels.
THE rise and fall OF the tide around
New York is from three TO five feet, and
therefore there is no occasion to use
cranes.
'"The only point OF advantage the Euro
pean seaports have over New York City
Is the fact that railroads run alongside OF
most Of the docks or quays and this is
mainly due 10 the ownership or control OF
all railroads by the different governments.

the Board OF Aldermen. we will have
overcome our only handicap,

that would require a space OF about one

With the expenditure Of about 100000
and the proper classification OF the vaIt-
Gus shipping interests New York city
would be- prepared to accommodate all
the vessels that may come into the port
Of New York.
THE Bush Terminal represents the
ideal waterfront development for conf
mercial purposes. and Chelsea Piers,
owned by the City OF New York. far sur
pass any piers or Developments In the

BRONX PLOTS AT AUCTION
Parcels in the Baychester Sec
tion Will Be Sold.

One of the largest recent sales of vacant
lots In the East Bronx is scheduled to be
held on January s. 1914. when Herbert A.
Sherman will OFFER in foreclosure in fifty
five separate plots the holdings OF Agnes
X. Murphy Mulligan, In the Baychester
section.
The lots are on Baychester. Edison, De
Reimer. Stilwell. Palmer. Waring and
Mace avenues. right at the new Bayches-
ter station, and are fully developed The
property is part OF the large tract owned
by Mrs. Mullgan, which was partly dis
posed OF at a large auction sale held In
1908. The Franklin Society is the plain
tiff and John =. Weninger appears as the
defendant in the suit. which is brought to
foreclose first mortgage. There is much
interest attached to the legal proceedings
alone I'm that 1t has taken more than four
years TO foreClOse the mortgage as num-
erous obstacles were encountered from
time 10 time which has long detained the
sale.

Is THIS Friendship

George. 8prsons has pased as
Cairo savior for 50 many years that
he almost believed it himself, but
his late actions show he is no longer
interested in the city's welfare, so
far as matters pertaining to the
building of a sixty-soot leTce sys-
tenn are concerned. Ills main in
terest now Is with the future OF the
Drainage District Ills new inter-
est may have been inspired by the
fact that he either owns or controls
something like ,1,600, or 1900
acres OF land in the district, the cash
value of which will depend entirely
upon the amount OF flood protec
ton ii receives.
The Bulletins account of Satur
day and Sundays meetings between
the mayor and other citizens and
the Drainage District commissioners
did not make matters entirely clear
to those who are net faTilisr with
al Che details Enough was stated.
however. to Indicate that an effort
has been made to deprive Cairo Of
its share Of the Federal govern
nent's $3.50. 600 appropriation and
that is why this editorial is written
We believe the taxpayers should
know where 10 place the RESPONSE
bility. so that If the attempted coup
it successful, no innocent persons
will be censured
George Parsons IL directly re-
sponsible for the attempt to cheat
Cairo out OF its just dues and II he
had succeeded ~ credit woulA have
been due to his extraordinary abil-
ity as "star chamber" puller Of
wires lie may yet sutceed, but iii
will be at the sacrifice Of tho friend
ship the people OF Cairo still have
for him.
George Parsons has always posed
as CaIro's greatest friend and bene-
factor. He continued in this role
until Gov. Dunno announced that
he would not sign a bill granting
