city Of the country. everything
points 10 next year being one OF the
best, commercially industrially and
in a real estate way. South Bend has
ever experienced. The boom promises
10 be particularly pronounced In real
estate and building activities. and
the city is consequently expected 10
have an unprecedented growth and
expansion.
These facts lend additional inter
est 20 the city planning agitation
which is being carried on here as
elsewhere throughout the state at
the present time. As Pres't Lee J.
Ninde of the State Realty association
said AT the recent real estate mems
banquet here at which he was the
principal guest: South Bend is es-
pecially ripe just now for city
planning"
During the last few months some
public sentiment has been created I'm

John E. Lathrop of the American
city bureau of New York, who is
perhaps the formost city expert in
this country, came 10 the city

planning and began giving talks at
various meetings.
Just what will be the result of the
crystalization Of this sentiment re-

GAIN IN BUILDING
UNP RECEDENTED.
Permits During Past Week
Show 361 Percent
Increase.

Though figures for the entire year
are not available at this time. it is
almost certain that the gain Of 361
per cent in the building during this
week over the total amount Of last
week. has not been equalled nor sur
passed since the passage Of the new
code. 1t is certain that IL is the
greatest gain registered since the
first OF September.
That the total amount OF the per-
mits OF this week have not been
cqualled since the last week in Sep
TENDER is a still more surprising
fact. During the week just passed
there were in all II permits granted
for a total Of $28,O30. an unusual
amount taking into consideration
the lateness Of the season.
IL is true that this amount is due
almost entirely TO two permits, one
for $4,000 and the other for So
$50. vet the facts are not altered
by this knowledge. In as far as the
abnormal gain in business is con-
cerned. It is important 70 keep in
mind that the total last week was
but 1920. a loss Of 81 per cent
over the week previous to that,
which was about an average week
for the month Of November.
The reports OF the building bust
ness OF the nation for November
nave not yet been issued by the
American Contractor, and it is
therefore impossible 10 make any
com parsons between local condi-
tions and conditions the country
over.
The largest permit of the week
was for a garage that is being con-
structed for Frank Mayr at 215 S
Lafayette st. A foundation permit
had already been granted which
gave the contractor, Kuehn and
Jordan Co, the authority to go
ahead with the preliminary part Of
the construction work. Final plans
for the first and second floors have
been provided and approved by the
building department and a permit
granted.
When completed the garage will
be two stories. with provisions for
working pits and the like. II is
understood that the walls will be
constructed OF sufficient strength 70
permit the addition of an extra story
It any time that this would be ad-
visable. The walls themselves will
be Of reinforced concrete and abso-
lutely fireproof. The floors OF the
building cover Sc IL feet by 155
feet. and the building. which will
be known as the Cadillac garage,
will afford ample room for the
parking of 200 cars.

were issued during the week ending
