BUILD
BY THE EDITOR

" I should like to propose today to the Commercial
club a new activity building and housing survey
of Tacoma.
In the past, the building of this city has progress
ed in highly spasmodic way. Sometimes the town
has been over built sometimes under built; some
times built wisely and in an orderly manner, some
times wastefully and foolishly.
Every indication is that now Tacoma, after sew
eral years of construction inactivity is about to
ter period of building It is important that this
be done with foresight and efficiency.
The Commercial club, it seems to me- is the best
agency available for handling this question in big,
masterful way.
What | suggest is that livc-wire committee be
named. First, it should undertake to obtain com
prehensive idea of what Tacoma s present building
and housing conditions are.
1t should list all buildings that fire-tlaps or
that for any other reason ought to be RACED If a
building warrants condemnation, the committee
ought to see that it is condemned
It ought to bring pressure to bear non resident
property owners to induce them to tear down worth
less and to repair dilapidated structures and work
in diplomatic and neghborly way with resident
landlords to the same end
1t should determine whether there is Oversup-
ply an under-suppy of the various types of build
ings. If there is greater supply of, let lis say,
lodging house structures than there is of good ten
ants for such buildings it would be to the advantage
of prospective investors to know it. If there is a

principle of non-partisanship in
state and county affairs.
Whether you believe in this

You will want to decide it intel
