Government Will Take More Buildings

have been carried on in close associa-
ton with the National Association of
Real Estate Boards, whose president
William NJ Gardland. of Los Angeles,
has given ali his time to cooperation
with the government in this work He
has been assisted almost continuously
by many OF the most prominent real
estate men of the country.
Government Money Saved
One instance Of the difference be-
tween real estate negotiations by in
experienced army officers and by real
estate men ia cited in the case Of the
Grand Central Palace in New York
The surgeon generals Office was willing
to pay rental of $521 900 for this
property. It was later acquired for
$374,000.
The navy had never availed itself
OF this voluntary service and is known
to have been badly mulcted in some of
its real estate deals. The Real Estate
Association not only makes appraise-
ments for the government where de-
sired, but actually conducts the pur-
chase negotiations in many instances.
This is especially true Of properties
acquired by the United States Hous-
ing Corporation For this body the
real estate men bought about $7,000,O00
worth of land at about 100000 less
than the appraised value and at about
90 per cent of the demanded prices.
The association is now advising the
War Department regarding the dis
posal of properties, but as yet no plan
has been worked out for parting with
the unneeded real estate.
