tirely inadequate to meet the stringent
requirements of the various departments
seeking to protect life and property.
Because land values are lower in this
section than anywhere else %opportuni.
ties for profitable building are accord
ingly greater. In addition to the coming
plan. the new broadway subway un-
doubtedly is going to result in bringing
industries back to this district. ON
Gals in the Tax Department say that
last year values in this section touched
the lowest level and hat the upward
trend is In evidence already. I thor
oughly agree with them, and while I do
not expect that the return TO the old
level will be As rapid as was the de-
cline. I believe the r%epopulation of the
old commercial section will result in
steady appreciation In value. Those
who invest there at present day values
will be we'll satisfied with their invest
