the last session Of the Legislature will
be productive OF substantial results
Governor Whitman is expected TO act
favorably on the bills advocated by the
organization in the near future.
"Great credit is due 70 the confer.
ence committee Of Real Estate and
Commercial Organizations for getting
through the Legislature the Lockwood
Ellenbogen bill, which was signed by
Governor Whitman Wednesday, con-
tinued Mr.. Mcclure. This conference,
however, was originally called together
in November, 1914, By the Real Estate
Board. and included taxpayer and bust
ness organizations throughout the FIVE
boroughs. The bill presented 20 the
Legislature Of 1918 passed, but was
vetoed by the Mayor. The present bill
is substantially the same measure, ex-
cept that il does not affect the Tene-
ment House Department. It's proyi-
5ions are now generally known.
1.-THE bill changing the dates for the
assessment and collection of taxes was
vigorously opposed by the Real Estate
Board. both before the Mayor and be-
fore the Governor. IL would have COM
pletely disarranged our tax system,
WIFI no &c RNAFA4Af Gnu aNN-
ed greatly TO the tax burden on real
estate owners. The Mayors veto on
Wednesday last killed the bill.
1.-THE Marsh bill, removing the neces-
sity for fire alarm signal systems and
fire drills in sprinklered buildings, APP
proved and urged by the board, has
been signed by the Governor.
"The Marsh bill requiring foreign in
surance companies TO pay per cent
tax on premiums on reinsured risks has
been vetoed by the Mayor and thus
killed. This bill would have added
greatly TO the insurance paid By real
estate owners and was opposed by the
board. Under its provisions the tax on
500 premium, now So, would have
run as high as s440 on a distributed
risk
Among the other bills now before
the Governor there seems little doubt
that the amendments TO the Torrens
act for registering titles will become
law.
at is also believed that the Governor
will sign the bill, introduced by the
special legislative committee 70 inves-
tigate labor legislation, amending the
labor law generally.

The chateau, which will be the home
of the thousand or more cooperative
owners Of the Dominion of Versailles,
will contain $500 units" or minimum
divisions Of space. Each Of these units
is about 10000 cubic feet. They may
be separated or combined. From a sin
gle unit it would be possible TO get q
living room. a dining room, kitchen
cite and two sleeping rooms. The aver
age size of all these rooms would be
~ by Is feet.
In three-unit apartment there
would be space for large studio room
90 feet wide by rs feet long by 20 feet
high; a large dining room adjoining,
with a pantry. kitchen, etc, for house
keeping and enough additional space
for a library and six bedrooms. AL
the rooms, except the studio, would
have 10-foot ceilings.
The price for one Of these units Of
space is $4,000. or more, according TO
location. A person may purchase as
many of these units as he wishes.
Five units. for example, would contain
more disable space than there is in the
largest Of country houses. The cost
would be much less.

The boom started about twenty years

late in getting started for the town was
settled before Robert Treat made his
initial visit 20 the shores of the Pesa-
YAK, but 10 surely has made up IN the
last decade for much lost time. Recent
activities indicate that the boom has
selpsed the best previous record.
The town is Perth Amboy. to-day
probably the busiest city of its size IN
we East. Realty experts say IT Is des-
uned 70 become one of the leading
ports Of the Atlantic coast, as II Is ad-
mirsbly situated at the junction Of

besides, Il has six miles of navigable

'vsas. The place was incorporated as
