To the city dweller, harassed by rising
rents and lack of desirable living space
for himself and his family. the remark
able building project announced by Will
lam L. Harmon & Co. should make
strong appeal. Tho project contenplates
the erection of an apartment house conf

wants exchange through which house

apartments are to be comparatively
owned, but even better than that they
are to be brought within the reach OF
the man In average circumstances.
Heretofore the cooperative apartment
has been regarded as something exclu-
sively for the wealthy man. but the Har-
mon company has worked out a scheme
through which It expects to bring tenant
ownership within the bounds OF the mod
crate income. For this scheme the COM
pany has invented the description trade

In the city this problem Is a compare

ture Of the proposed legislation Senator
Davenports statement did not treat.
These are the results Of nearly three
months of diligent and attentive COM
mittee work in dealing with a problem
OF extraordinary difficulty. Not only
have State and municipal expenses
grown beyond all precedent. partly as
the direct effects of war conditions, but
both State and municipality have lost
large sources OF revenue In the legal pro-
hibition OF the manufacture and sale
of intoxicating liquors.
Other sources OF revenue had to be
established to make up for these losses.
Unless something in the direction taken
had been done there would have been
no possible escape from a ruinous in
crease in the direct tax-the tax on
real estate.
The trend OF legislation. as indicated
by the scores OF bills presented In the
Legislature. was in the opposite dlrec-
ton, however. the great majority OF them
having had in view more or less drastic
measures for beating the personal prop
erty bushes, nobody. not even Comp
troller Travis, having suggested an in
crease of the tax rate on real estate.
Indeed. the entire discussion from the
beginning has been directed to the relief
of real property from the disproportion-
ate and unjust strain of taxation OF re-
cent years. In this respect the Real
Estate Boards bill for a minimum
per cent rate and the vigor with which
1t was pressed upon the Legislature have
unquestionably been fruitful of good re-
suits. 1t at least served to AK the main
purpose of the legislation in view 90 that
there was no escape from It.
1t is too much to expect that every
body will be satisfied with these bills.
but fair-minded people IN general will
agree that the committee has done its
work well. The problem was not an
easy one. the contentious OF extremists.
doctrinares and selfish iatsrests over I.
distractng IN the extreme, while the
small political fry persisted IN their en-
deavors to make partisan capital out OF
it. There was really danger at one
time that party considerations would
prevent action OF any kind at this SEES
sion. When, on Wednesday, however,
United States Senator Calder threw the
weight OF his advice and opinion into the
scales party considerations were swept
aside and the committee decided to take
the course recommended to them by all
the experts they had consulted. which
was the course dictated by purely eco
nomic considerations free from all faint
of partisanship.
Real estate interests here and through
out the State will recognize in the Dav-
export j hudson bills a fair measure OF

fectly appointed and perfectly conducted
city and rural ideal.

the real estate department will be glad
to answer in these columns questions
from home seekers, with the exceptions
OF queries OF legal nature or those rela-
tive to the value Of specific properties.
In this issue appears the photograph
and the plans for the two lower floors Of
typical suburban residence OF the bet
ter class at Mountain Lakes. N. ]. A
home of this type can be purchased for
from $4,000 to $4,000. The home shown
above can be constructed. at the pres
ent cost of building materials, for 3s.-
600. Including the cost OF the land. In
subsequent issues THE SUN will show
photographs and plans of other suburban
homes costing much less.
The house pictured above occupies q
plot 100x1s5. The grounds are land
scaped and planted with flowers and
shrubs. The exterior OF the house is
constructed of stucco, with stipple finish.
and the veranda floors are Of solid con-
crete. The outside trim Is white and
cream.
The interior plaster walls are tinted
and decorated in stencil. The first floor
is finished in chestnut stained to repre-
sent oak. The woodwork Of the second
and third floors Is whitewood enamelled
in old ivory. Wherever wildwood is
used in the house the doors are ma
hogany. The bathrooms are tiled. with
solid base tubs and handsome bathroom
fittings There is a separate room bor

the entire house with n concrete floor

room. A similar house OF seven rooms
and one bathroom can be constructed
for from $500 to $4,000 under present
conditions.
The pleasing features OF this type OF
house are the large open flreplaces In the
living room and the extensive use Of
wood paneling in the entrance hall, liv-
ing room and dining room.
In selecting q suburban home the first
thing TO be decided upon is the location.
New York has a number of attractive
suburbs and the range of choice Ia wide
one. Individual taste will undoubtedly be
the deciding factor in making a selection.
From time to lime THE SUN will take up
different suburban residential sections
and discuss them in detail.
In connection with the question OF To-
cation the problem of transportation
should be thoroughly gone into and the
transportation facilities offered by any
particular locality carefully examined.
Bad or limited train service may make
an otherwise attractive suburb an i'm
possible residence for a business or pro-
fessional man who ia obliged to arrive

torney. The lawyer merely gives nh
best opinion as to the legality OF the
title. In most cases his opinion may
be the correct one. but II he should by
chance be mistaken the loss falls en-
tirely upon the purchaser. The title
company. however, agrees to back its
opinion as to the validity OF title by
insuring the purchaser against loss
should the title prove defective.
In regard to titles, IL Is we'll at this
point to warn the inexperienced buyer
to insist upon getting title at the time
he makes his first payment. Many home
seekers have entered into possession Of
what they regarded as their property
upon a written contract to sell, only
later to realize that their home was
never legally theirs.
contract to sell Is n contract by
which the yender agrees upon receipt OF
a certain consideration TO transfer title
on the completion of the payment of
the amount specified in the contract.
When this contract il made by a COM
pany with an established reputation for
fair dealing 1t may work out satisfac-
torily, but in this form OF purchase
there Turk many dangers for the I'M
wary.
An INSCRIPTIONS vender may transfer
the title of the property to some one else
and then abscond or so into bank
ruptcy. II he decamped the holder OF
the contract would have a legal action
against him for the recovery of dam
ages, but his chances of recovery would
be small, and the holder OF the legal
title to the property could eject him at
pleasure. II should be obvious that this
Is an unsafe method of purchase IN
many instances and should be avoided
II possible.
Tie most conservative way OF acquir-
ing a home and the one which should
be followed II possible is to secure title
upon the payment OF the rrst install
ment.
In one popular suburban development
the following plan is In vogue. The
price of the property, let US say for ex-
ample. is $500. The buyer purchases
the property outright. receiving title
upon the payment OF $1,000. He as
sumes first mortgage of $1,000 and
gives to complete his purchase a second
or purchase money" mortgage for
$4,000. running two and a half years,
| payable In monthly. quarterly or semi
annual instruments. to suit his con-
venience. After he has paid off this Sec
| end mortgage his carrying charges will
amount to but $35 a month. provided he
does not wish to pay off the entire first
! mortgage, in which case II will prob
ably be advisable for him to go to a
building loan association, who will take
over his first mortgage and allow him
| TO pay II of In instruments. This,
roughly, Is a plan which. of course, has
many notifications. depending upon the
nature of the property and it's value
