BIG INCREASE SHOWN
IN VALUE OF PERMITS
$40 Per Cent More in October,
1919, Than in Same Month in
1918, Building Age Says.

An increase of $40 per cent is
shown in the value of permits grant,
ed for October. 1919. compared with
October, 1918. according to reports
received direct from city building de-
partments by Building Age, New
York. Out of 100 cities reporting. 17s
show increases. The total amount of
construction for which permits, were
1G5.525,316: for October, 191S.s the
total was S36.S35.322.
The percentage of increase in the
number of permits granted is III per
cent, this giving a more conservative
view of the greater activity this year
owing to the increased cost in build
ing. The average value of the per-
mits granted during October, 1919,
was 1868. compared with $1.766 for
October. 1918, when government reg
ulations were in full force.
Eastern cities show gain of $50
per cent. 50 out of 70 cities reporting
increases; middle state cities report
a gain of 719 per cent, SO out of So
cities reporting Increases: southern
cities show an increase of 500 per
cent. 81 out of 3S cities. reporting in
increase of 121 per cent. 20 out of "a
cities reporting increases.
Future months will. in all proba :
bility, see increased costs of material
and labor. it being likely that the
cost Of building next year will be at
least 10 per cent greater than at
present. A growing shortage of both
material and labor is more than prob
able. Many material dealers are
stocking up as far AS possible in or
der to meet a growingly acute situa-
ton.
