Long Branch Activity
Makes a New Record
Building Boom at Resort Biggest
in Last Fifteen Years

Ever since President Wilson made
Long Branch the summer capital last
year. there has been a building boom
in the resort unequalled in fifteen
years.
Investors are developing the virgin
properties at the north end. skirting
the Shrewsbury River. Bungalow col
onies have sprung up and the attractive
little buildings are rented or sold as
soon as erected James VI. Craig has
become head of the Emmert Park De-
velopment, which is bulkheading its
river front lots with concrete. The
original park comprised twenty eight
acres and ten more were added this
spring.
Adjoining the Emmert Park tract is
Del Monte Gardens, which covers thirty
acres. Already 140 lots have been sold.
not including the houses. Across the
Boulevard from Del Monte Gardens is
the Riverview development. These
properties have a railroad station at
either end and the trolley insects them.
All the city Improvements have been
carried through this section.
A new public library is under con-
struction. the city having received $780,
coo from the Carnegie fund. Long
Branch has pledged $4,000 a year for
the upkeep Of the institution.
Summer visitors will find that an
amusement programme Of wide range
has been planned by Mayor Marshall
Wooley and the commissioners. The
New Jersey Order of Elks will hold
their convention there next summer.
More than 1000 attended the convea'
tion three wears ago.

r. E. Board Says Vast De-
cline in Values Would
Take Place Under Law
For Lower Super Tax
Organization Endorses Gen.
eral Attitude of the State
Hotel Association
BY the Real Estate Board of Brokers

The Real Estate Board, through its
joint committee on legislation, has pre-
scented to the Legislature vigorous OPP
position to the Hill-Wheeler bill, pro-
viding for making prohibition territory
of any city, by majority of voters OF
the political division, upon petition Of
the voters to the number of not less
than one-fourth Of the total votes cast
in the preceding election. Prohibition
territory may be discontinued upon
similar petition and vote.
Entirely aside from the moral ques-
tior involved, the Real Estate Board is
opposed 10 this local option measure.
II would greatly affect real estate and
real estate values. The uncertainty
which would result from bringing the
question 10 vote OF the people every
year, or every two years, or even every
five years, would create a very disas-
trous condition of confusion and stabil-
ity in rents, in real estate values, in
mortgage loans and in credit, all OF
which results are, of course, highly OBJ
jectionable.
The uncertainty of this result hardly
needs to be argued. Nor can this re-
suit be contemplated without facing
the other equally obvious result, an
enormous shrinkage in the taxable val.
ues Of the city This shrinkage would
not only be immediate, it would be
cumulative.
Il is the opinion of proprietors OF
cur largest hotels, structures that have
helped to give New York City a world
wide reputation in this respect, that
many OF these structures would not
have been undertaken under conditions
which the bill seeks to impose.
1t is impossible to contemplate The
proposed measure without looking
squarely in the face the consequences
above outlined.
The Real Estate Board, without spe-
officially recommending restrictive leg
islation, would consider less harmful
than the Hill-Wheeler bills Senator
Emerson's bill, Int No. 653 (print No.
1870, in so far as it provides for re-
stricting the number of licenses in
cities Of $4,000 or less and in towns and
villages, so that there shall be not more
than one license for every 500 of popu-
lation.
There should, however, be a reduc-
ton made in the per cent super tax.
The burden of this excessive super tax
would fall upon the large hotels.
Would not the consequent tendency be
to encourage individual misuse of in
toxcants in the cheaper and poorly
regulated resorts?
The Real Estate Board, in present
ing these objections, indorses gem
orally the attitude Of the New York
State Hotel Association and the Hotel
Association of New York City, both of
which organizations are largely repre-
scented in its membership.

Putting Modern
Comforts in Fine
Colonial House
Studios in Fourth ST. Structure
Will Be % Feet Wide and
Have Northern Light

The transition that Greenwich Vii
lage is undergoing is strikingly indl-
Gated by the alterations being made to
the charming Colonial house at 1872
West 4th st. from plans by Miss Jo-
sephine Wright Chapman, architect, OF
80 Washington Square. The dwelling
which is four stories and basement, IS
being changed into studio apartment
house with one family to floor. Inc
rentals will be SS5 a month a suite, or
about 81 900 year.
Numerous families in comfortable
circumstances are DESTROYS OF living IN
Greenwich Village apartments. Many
are descendants of Knickerbocker fam
lilies who not so many years ago hau
their town houses fronting on or near
Washington Square. The Attn ST. house
is one of the dwellings being altered
from a private house TO studio apart
ments to help meet this growing de-
mand.
The permsnency Of the beautiful,
quaint and old home centre of Green
witch Village is assured, as some months
ago the city adopted the building zone
law. Two other factors which have re-
suited in a large number OF uptown
jewellers seeking homes in the village
are the rapid rise Of uptown apartment
rentals and the great transit links that
have recently been added to the old
Knickerbocker centre, one Of them
being the 7th av. line Of the dual SUD-
way system.
Il is but a short walk from the prem
ises at 1872 West Attn ST. TO the 9Th av
81" line and to the 7th av. subway
route. A station of the subway will be
at 7th av. and Christopher 81. >
The plans of Miss Josephine Wright
Chapman provide, that not one OF the
Colonial lines Of the 4th st. house be
obliterated. They also provide for spa
ciousness in the layout OF the studio
apartments and for ample, large closets
Each apartment will have a large studio
overlooking the street and commanding
a sweeping view Of Washington Square;
Thus, each studio will get unobstructed
northern light. The width of these
studios will be exactly that OF the
house, which is twenty-five feet. In the
rear of each floor. with windows 70 the
southern light, will be large bedroom.
Each suite will also have a big bath
room, and II the tenant desires an al
cove bedroom can be included in the
suite. The house will be ready for
occupancy about May l.

The "mcdel block" on Sixth av will be
radiant in its new trimmings next
Wednesday, and Sixth Avenue Day will
be celebrated on April 10. The block is
between 4sth and 49th SITS. 1t was
selected by the Sixth Avenue Associa-
ton, which has obtained the active sup
port Of the city administration and the
Edison Company, to demonstrate the
possibilities for better illumination
and n higher standard Of store displays
through cooperation and concerted ef-
fort.
Besides the store fronts and the
buildings themselves, the street light
ing Will also receive special attention.
An effort will be made TO have the ele-
waited structure painted an attractive
cream color, and this iron structure
viii also be used as support for the
fixture to illuminate the street. In
this, as in other details, the association
has the cooperation Of officials Of the
lnterborough as well as Of David F.

BOARD OF APPEALS RULING

In recent action the Board of
Appeals has made it clear that the
rule. adopted under Section 7l9 of
the charter. requiring appeals to be
taken within twenty days Of the

a legitimate basis for an appeal.

legal action that had been started
