Mortgage Bill Aims

Measure Before Congress
Relieves From Taxation
Incomes of $4,000 Re-
ceived From These Loans
By rank Bailey

Vace-P President Title Guarantee and
Trust Companu


Trust Company
Real estate interests and those
wishing to improve large communities
nave begun to appreciate the difficulty
in obtaining large sums of money. and
also that the rate Of interest has
reached higher level, and that the
rate of interest in Manhattan also is
fast approaching a legal limit of G
per cent.
The large sums of money, limited as
they are to two or three sources, are
most difficult to obtain at any reason
able basis of charge. Attempts are he
ing made to meet the demand for large
sums by distributing mortgages in
small amounts, but the cost of obtain
ing these mortgages is such that the
cost OF obtaining a large loan is equiv
alent to nearly per cent interest for
the duration of the mortgage
There is but one possibility of re-
net IN sight and that is the passage
or the bill known as II. r. S0SO-a bill
70 encourage the building Of homes, by
providing for exemption from taxation
OF the income of mortgages on real cs-
tate, now before Congress, relieving
$4,000 OF mortgages in the hands of
an individual from income tax. Every
'ndlvidual now holding large amount.
OF mortgages with an income of over
$4,000, is compelled to call those mort
cages and invest the proceeds either
IN preferred stocks, which pay approx
mately per cent and are exempt from
the normal tax. Or if his income IS
much above $4,000 in municipal and
state bonds, which are selling at a
rate better than the United States GOV
eminent bonds, because of their free
dom from all taxation of any kind
whatever
Tenant Pays the Increase
If the real estate interests do not stir
themselves and endeavor to obtain the
passage of this bill, which exempts
$4,000 of mortgages in the hands of
every individual, l believe that there
Will be a still greater dearth OF money.
and that money will be obtained in
large sums on Y at rate of at least
Z per cent for the period of the mort
gage. The tenant pays that increased
rate of interest, for the owner will not
build, nor will the buyer buy unless the
rent is sufficient to meet his fixed
charges and produce net to the
owner.
This is bill in which the tenant
should be interested as much as The
owner, and there is a great probability
now that the bill can be passed if it is
shown to the representatives in Wash
lngton that there is a public demand.
This is the job of every real estate
owner, builder and tenant, and he
should give it his attention by writing
his Congressman at once.

tions. I am advised by some Of the
leading builders that costs will not
only hold next year but might go
higher.
Advises Buying Now
Land and rental values in the finan-
cial section are higher now than at any
other time in the history of the city.
believe that these values will hold. and
think it advisable for any one wish
ing to purchase a building for his own
occupancy to do so while the opportu-
nifty exists to make a selection.
Looking forward, l think the new
year will bring much more activity
than we have had this year, and believe
that the shortage of space will still
continue to be felt because new build
ings erected in all parts of the city
have in nearly every instance been
leased from the plans. There must be
more new buildings erected of every
character to take care Of the ever in
creasing demand of this city, which is
to-day the financial center of the world.

IBy Z. q. pougherty.l
Washington. Oct s.-The charge
that tho st. Louis convention OF former
service men was controlled by Officers
when It voted opposition TO the grant
Ing OF any bonus to soldiers was made
by Marvin Gates sperry, national
president OF tho Private Soldiers and
SailorS' Legion, In a letter to Repre-
sentative Fordnsy. chairman OF the
house ways and means committee
President Sperry urges a referendum
Of the private soldiers Of the war to
determine whether they want bonus
! voted by congress. Mr.. Sperry's letter
to Chairman Fordney follows:
II note the papers quote you as say
ing that You did not intend TO take
any action on legislation paying the
discharged soldiers Of the world war a
bonus of 500 or any other amount I'M
I'll after the convention OF the Officers
American Legion at Minneapolis In
November; that you desire to wait I'M
III after that convention had spoken
and then you would know what the
soldiers themselves wanted.
.T call your attention TO the fact that
the Officers American Legion repre-
senss but a fraction OF the 1000 900
private soldiers, and its position as
voiced st the st. Louis convention
under the control and d!otation OF
officers. was bitter opposition to any
bonus for the soldiers. The public Is
already aware Of the position OF the
Officers American Legion as TO any
form OF bonus: they are opposed TO 1t,
and you do not need TO delay your
action until their Minneapolis conven-
ton to know where they stand.
"ff you want, as your statement In
dictates, to know what the sentiments
Of the soldiers themselves are on the
question Of a bonus, / suggest that
You make an announcement to the
country that you arc willing to submit
the question OF the $500 bonus to a
referendum vote Of the private soldiers
OF the world war. and that you ask
each soldier to send IN his vote by
card or letter TO the ways and means
committee. yes or no. as to whether he
wants a $500 bonus. This Is the only
way to get the sentiment OF the SOL
diers themselves The. Private Sol
diers and Sailors Legion is in favor or
the $500 for each soldier. The Officers
American Legion IL opposed 70 the
bonus. Such a test vote and express
sion Of opinion as I suggest that you
call for would get the real wishes
from the privates themselves.
Gladly accepting your expressions
OF friendliness for the soldiers I say
Come on now. Brother Fordney, and
give the boys a fair chance 10 be heard
by your committee. and then let your
committee act promptly according to
the expressed wish OF the soldiers
themselves, without waiting for the
voice Of any machine made convention
at Minneapolis or anywhere else"
