In the cfse OF home builders on
the near outskirts of the city OF
Washington. the advances in land
value have continued at a far great
er rate than the deterioration in
the building. In fact. the land has
gone on advancing during the lives
of successive buildings. Therefore,
the home builder who wants to con-
duct his operations with the great
est degree Of economy should select
his site where he may take ad-
vantage OF the greatest future ad-
vance in land values.
'TO my mind. one of the rare op-
portunities of this kind will be Of
fcrcd at the coming absolute aut-
tiun sale Of Crestview. where 500
home sites are to be offered to the
public for whatever they may bring.
The owners have decided to liQuidate
their holdings. Their loss will be
the public's gain. as it is my expert
ence that when such a large parcel
of land is thrown on the market in
one sale there is bound to be bar
gains for those who have the fore
sight to buy. Washington has made
wonderful strides within the last
decade. and l look for a still broad
er expansion of the city's population,
and firmly believe that within few
years it will have a roster Of 100000

questions: Where will this increased
population live? Which section of

the fact that such a question sf-

what they term high rents.
There is a well-grounded opinion
in real estate circles, not only in
this city. but throughout the coun-

New York Legislature to Act.
The New York State legislature
is to meet this month to consider
construction problems. \ Suggestions
already have been made for the
consideration of this body, which it
is believed will bring about relief.
They warrant favorable attention
and no doubt any move by the New
York body looking to the relief of
present real estate conditions will
be reflected in the laws for this
city. Some of the suggestions in
vOlve Federal action dealing as
from Federal banks.
Four of the suggestions are:
Amend the State laws so that all
new buildings for homes be exempt
from the recently passed rent laws.
By State action exempt all new
buildings for homes from real es-
tate taxes for n period of years
That by Federal action real es-
tate mortgages be made a legal
investment for national banks and
that such mortgages be made do
COuntable with the Federal reserve
banks
Make State instrumentalities out
of bonds issued by the State land
bank organized under the laws Of
1914. This would automatically
exempt these bonds from the Fed
eral income tax and as they are
issued at AZ per cent they would
be readily saleable and millions
would At once become available for
real estate.
These suggestions all cover the
problem thoroughly. They pro-
vide for encouragement for build
erS and they provide means for
getting the funds in that they
make investment in real estate at

Abrogation of restrictive laws
will bring about increases in the
number of homes. This is the
opinion OF those watching the
home situation. There is no en-
couragement to- build homes now.
Lack of sufficient homes to ac-
commodate the people is placed
right at the door of restrictive
laws. The passage of such laws in
an effort to overcome the natural
law of supply and demand has
failed. The natural law must be
left to work itself out. Wrangling
over high rents and constant in
creaseS will not bring about the
building of homes to meet the
demand. The answer to the situa-
ton is more homes.

Rents and even costs OF homes

natural sequence to the law Of
demand. But when building starts,
urged on by the demand. it will
go on a large scale. Buildings
will be put up rapidly, or as rap
idly as materials can be obtained.
Then gradually the supply will
catch up with the demand. The
prices will begin to equalize them
selves.
There are many ways in which
home building can be encouraged.
Congress alone can do it for the
District of Columbia. Every aid
should be given which would bring
about an increase in the number
Of buildings, particularly homes and
apartments. The situation is re-
reiving attention in many minds to-
day. Not until homes are supplied
