MANY FAMILIES ARE
BUYING THEIR HOME
Over Sixty Thousand Families
in Pittsburg Buy Homes
This Year

PITTSBURG. Pa. Feb. 28.-More
than sixty thousand Pittsburg fami-
lies bought their homes during the
past year, not because they were par
ticularly anxious to own their oyn
homes, but, according to real estate
men, they had to buy. or move. This
is continuing at the same rate thus
far this year
The hnme-buying movement began
two years ago, when war activities
in the mills brought scores Of fami-
lies into community where housing
accommodations had been increasing
ly scarce for number of years.
Cost Of construction increased ans
this curtailed building operations.
Rents have increased in proper
ton, small houses and apartments
showing the highest percentage. Fif-
ty per cent raises for the coming
year are said TO be common, while
in some Instances 100 per cent has
been asked and paid where the oc-
cupant could afford it. The de.
mand is here, and the living places
are not, is the way one real estate
man explained the situation.
Similar conditions prevail through
out the Pittsburg district. In some
manufacturing towns industrial cor
porations are building and buying
houses for their men. while in Shar.
on, Pa. the chamber Of commerce
has undertaken to finance the con
struction Of 500 residences.
