public. The investigation has taken
the committee into many fields and
Connected up in some way or other
with building and rental, such as
finances. labor costs. loans, mort
cages, interest rates, material
prices, etc
The plan to date calls for a spe-
cial meeting of the whole associa
tion at which the report will be
presented, and opened to the body
for discussion. When finally adopted
by the whole body the report will
be published.
That the committee has found a
shortage of certain classes of prop
erty is known. 1t was found that
the great demand for rental proper
ties was in the neighborhood of $40
a month for five and six rooms. 1t
is probable that the report will
point sut clearly the difficulties IN
the way of adding additional rental
properties at this time for anything
near this amount for a similar por-
tion of space.
1t is expected. too. to go into the
details of the increased material and
labor costs entering into building of
all kinds, and show clearly just why
builders cannot undertake to nut up
properties for investment to rent for
the amounts demanded.

REALTY AGENTS
GROWINNUMBER
Demand for Expert Advice
In Real Estate Problems
Enlarges Field.

Real estate agents continue to
increase in numbers, and the busi-
ness to an outsider would seem to
be overdone. The fact that they
thrive fairly well is ample proof
that there is a growing demand for
agents services. Owners appre-
ciate more the utility of the agent
as a collector of rent and general
overseer of landed possessions. He
is at once an adviser, a real estate
lawyer, and middleman between the
public and the owner. As such he
holds a most responsible position,
and he is generally faithful to his
trust.
The increase Of agents also shows
the growing popularity Of real
estate as a safe means of invest
ment, for the sale OF property Is
the principal source of revenue to
the fraternity. The business of
fifteen years ago would have
supported hardly one-half Of the
agents doing business today. Trans
actions are larger. more numerous,
and involve larger amounts as
values increase.

Results OF the Investigations of
the housing committee of the Real
Estate Brokers' Association of this
city into the housing shortage here
are expected to be formulated into
a report within the next ten days.
Soon after that it is expected, the
report will be given to the people
of Washington, together with rec
providing relief.
A tentative report of the findings
of the committee, which is headed
by Charles w. Fairfax, has been
prepared by Fairfax and Bates War
rem. 1t was submitted to the whole
committee at a meeting last Mon
day in the office of H. L Rust, pres
ident of the association, and a mem
ber of the committee.
During the discussion of the re-
port, however, several points were
developed on which the committee
did not have full information. Sew
eral of the members believed this
information, which related to con-
ditions in other cities, was impor-
tant for a full consideration OF the
whole report. The information has
been. sent for, and probably will
be in the hands of the committee
during the week.
The committeeman are all fully
cognizant of the Importance OF an
early report, but they, too, realize
the Importance of covering every
detail in connection with the matter
so that the people will have full in
formation when the report is made

TRACT OF VIRGIN FOREST

MARKETED NVuLA SITES

Within the boundaries Of the Dis

place where those who cherish the
desire for a villa can have their
wants fulfilled, yet close enough to
the; city's conveniences to be able
to enjoy all the pleasures of its So
ctal side. This land has been little
touched by the hand of man, for
the forest growth Of years still re-
mains, and the beautiful contours
Of the land have never been bisect-
ed by the straight lines of the city

setts Avenue Park and Massachu-

Creek Park and retains so many of
the natural beauties of that pre-

one leaves the confines of the Fed
eral park and enters the new sub
division.
In Path of Social Center.
A great future for this beautiful
section is promised, for 1t lies in
the path of the general movement
of the social center and activity OF
Washington. Already, large and
pretentious residences of those
high in social and official life OF the
National Capital have been erected
and are proposed in this territory.
This large territory was, until a
short time ago, left untouched,
chiefly because the permanent
highway plan of the city of Wash

the regulation city lines of rectan-
gulsr plots brought to city grade.

STATE POLICE
 MAY STOP BIG
 ELM CITY BOUT

New Haven, Jan. S.---Chief of Po-
 lice Philip T. Smith will make known
 today his new decision as to revoking
 the licenese for the Leonard-Dundee
 20-round lightweight championship
 prize fight booked for this city Jan
 uary 16.
 The hope today that the chief will revoke the license is more earnest than ever before, because if he does not stop the affair, it is almost cer- tain the state police will, and this is made clear by an unsolicited letter received last night from Supt. Thomas F. Egan containing a vote of the state police commission passed in July, 1918 and reaffirmed at a meeting at the state capitol recently, which recites the law and tells of intention to use every effort to stop such contests in the state.
 The commission states, in referring | to prize fights in the state, 'that our tolerance of this special form of law
 breaking is being tested.'
