FIRE insurance '1n the construction of
our homes and buildings he said, I'VE
use everything possible In the way OF
fireproof materials: and then we go a
step further and put on IRE insurance.
II we do this with our homes, why not
do It in big way In the government
do not wish to be known as an alarm
list. but II you were to ask me what
country Will suffer most when the war
is over, I would answer The United
States We are opportunists and grasp
things before We know whether they
are hot or not"
eileen Brown said that the park plan of
Washington has led 100 other cities and
towns to make similar plans for their
own development, and added that the
value OF the Washington plan Is both
financial and cultural, -inasmuch as 1t
will attract large numbers Of people from
all parts OF the world to see the city.
He urged that the Park Commission plan,
which he said was now only great
moral force" be converted into law. 80
that its growth will be no longer hap
hazard and dependent upon individual
whIms, but an orderly development in an
economical and business-like manner"
For Code of Ethics.
It was announced at the afternoon ses-
sion that the real estate exchanges OF
all cities represented in the association
will be urged to adopt code of ethics to
be followed In business transactions,
which code has been approved by the
executive committee.
It was said by Thomas S. Ingersoll, Of
Minneapolis, executive secretary of the
association, that the realty phase OF the
physical valuation of the railroads now
being conducted by the Interstate Com
merce Commission should be handled by
local real estate men in every locality
where railroad holdings are to be ap-
praised. The view that local men on ao
count of their experience and knowledge
Of local conditions are better qualified
than the agents of out-of-town appraisal
companies or the realty experts OF the
Interstate Commerce Commission was
indorsed by the executive committee.
The committee will be entertained to-
day by the Washington Realty Mems
Association at a luncheon in the Com
mercial Club. Afterwsrd they Will make
a sightseeing tour Of the city in auto
mobiles. About thirty of them will go
to Philadelphia tomorrow to be the
guests Of the real estate men there on
Sunday.
