Memphis. like every other city in the
United States, seemed almost to have
stopped building last year, due to goy-
eminent restrictions upon any but the
most necessary building and to the
high cost Of labor and all kinds Of
building material.
As a consequence there has not been
such an extraordinary Halnand for
houses for rental purposes before In 10
years as there Is now Every real estate
office handling rental property, has in
quiries far IN excess or the offerings.
In fact, II is an impossibility TO secure
a modern house for rent and 1t has
been stated that a thousand good
houses could be rented were that num-
Der available.
Real estate men say that the cause
Is the steady increase In population,
added TO which Is the demand from
returning soldiers for homes. In many
cases soldiers families have been liv-
ing with their parents during the abb
sence Of the men in camp or overseas.
Now these soldier citizens are at home
again and the steady influx of these
men has added to the demand for
houses already existing These facts,
together with the steady increase In
the renewal OF business in all lines,
had resulted in an improvement In the
real estate market, many people find
ing that they could not rent. having

Labor Will Stay High.

Contractors and real estate men agree
that there Will be probably no decrease
in the cost of labor in any line for a
long time. They also believe that there
will be no agreeable decrease in the
cost OF building material from prices
now prevailing. These, however, are
by no means so much higher than dur
ing prewar times as most people have
supposed, Recent contracts let IN
Memphis and In this territory show the
average advance in building materials
over prices Of two years ago to be not
more than 20 to rs per cent. Labor
costs are however considerably higher,
Contractors are OF the opinion, and
they are backed up by the opinion Of
architects and others interested gem
orally in the building trades, that as
soon as people realize that present
prices are not likely to be materially
reduced this year, that renewed activity
in all building lines win be the result,
Additional bids for work upo the
new Methodist hospital buildings will
be opened within Che next month OF
two and 1t is proposed TO expend on
the completed buildings approximately
$500, Probably half OF that amount
will be expended this year.

the estimates for the new buildings
which are to be erected his summer at
the University of Tennessee, Knoxville.
The university will expend in all about
$f,00D, 600 in new buildings and equip
ment, the money being derived from
q bond issue for that amount author
lied by the legislature two years ago,
Bids on some of the new buildings are
to be opened May Is at Knoxville.
The West Tennessee Normal school
will also be in the market for bids on
several new buildings this summer,
possibly in the neighborhood OF $500
to 5000, 900 Of new work being figured
on for the school,
The work of the school has been
hampered for several years by lack
OF sufficient dormitory room, The
school buildings themselves are ample
to accommodate from 1000 to 1900 stu
dents
Although 1918 was a decidedly off
year in building operations, the records
in the office of Dan G, Newton, build
ing inspector, show hat 994 permits
were issued In 1918, the value of the
buildings and improvements being given
as 81 ,59l ,07S.
