BUILDING SLUMPS
ALL over STATES

Builders and others interested in
real estate in Honolulu should not
feel unnecessarily depressed over the
low building record for this city dur
ing the last two months. for, accord
ing to Bradstreet's review, building
for October in 139 cities of the United
States was one of the lowest ever re-
corded for those particular cities. For
the 16,943 permits issued in these
1879 cities, the estimated value was
only $38,417,S3S, a decrease Of 1872
per cent in permits and Of 50.4 per
cent in valuation of buildings started
in October, 1916.
The ten months total for 1917 end
ing with October, is the smallest for
any corresponding period for the last
ten years. The table below shows the
valuations for new buildings for the
month of October and for the first ten
months of all years Beginning with
1903 and ending with 1917.

RUSSIAN BONDS
QUIETLY BOUGHT
10y TICK r. TAPE)

Local investors holding Imperial
Russian bonds are commencing to
quake with dread, for Russian bonds
have reached a new low level. The
latest New York quotation received by
a local trust company on Russian in,
ternals is $1,000. AS more than two
million rubles worth of Russian bonds
are held by investors in this city it
will be of interest to them to know
that great deal Of quiet buying of
these bonds is going on now One
local trust company has had a stack
of orders which were to be filled the
moment the bonds sank below the
500 mark and these are now being ex.
ecuted.
The reason for the drop is the fact
that the Bolshevikis, now holding the
upper hand in Petrograd, recently is
sued a statement repudiating the ma
tional debts. The moment a govern
ment of any kind repudiates a ma
tional debt it not only makes enemies
OF the men without its boundaries
holding its securities, but also makes
enemies of the men within the coun-
try who are financially interested.
This action on the part of the Boil
shevikis will stir up the many SLOW
going Russian investors and capital
lists who hold their country's bonds,
and undoubtedly will result in the
busting of the Bolsheviki from power.
Indications are that the Bolshevikis
will not last longer than four or five
weeks and may even lose seat before
that time. This party has not sbeen
able to get control Of the gold reserve
in Russia and without gold it win soon
drop into the past
Whether the new government that
comes will cancel the Bolshevih &C.
ton or not is a question, but the an.
swer will probably be that any new
government that comes in will win
its power with the help of the finan-
cial men and the men interested in
seeing that the countrys finances are
restored to a sound basis. Undoubt.
edly the moment a new government
goes in Russian Intervals will rise
from their present low level.
