these are the most favorable terms

home builders.
$17,5O0 Malba's Lowest Price
This price is an intermediate figure,
There are cheaper houses and also dear

new structures cannot be had for less
than $17,500. The next highest is $18,-

Old designs have been adopted to
modern conditions. The houses range
in size from eight rooms and two baths
to ten rooms and three baths on various
sized plots and in various locations
The difference in the cost of the houses
is as much due to location and area OF

In the suburbs. There is frantic in
vaslon Of the little home districts and
every dwelling that measures up better
than the apartment suite in the city as
home and an investment is snapped up.
This information is based on fact, and
Is given to eliminate disappointment, as
disappointment will come to the family
which procrsstinates these days. That
you may better understand how rapidly
possibilities are disappearing from the
field, take the business of one real estate
man operating in Flushing. Nearly
every other day last year this man sold
home. In all he sold 153 dwellings,
for $1,221, 900. There are score of
other brokers in the Flushing field who
undoubtedly sold houses, too.
Initial Step Toward Ownership
OF course, decisions must depend on
your financial resources. If you have
in mind the purchase of home study
your finances, just what you have on
hand and just how much of your re-
gular income you can apply each month
to the purchase of a home without sac
rificing to the point Of hardship. Hav-
ing ascertained your resources then set
out on your home hunting mission.
In Flushing the cheapest Of the new
houses, now on the market are not to
be had for less than 1880. The other
extremity is more than $4,000. Buy
ing either houses on the smallest posi-
BILE cash basis acceptable, $4,000 in the
cheaper houses and $4,000 in the more
expensive the monthly charge, for the
first year at least, would be about $40
in he former case and about $3.50 in
the latter.
The second year the charge would be
less and the third still.lower.
Let Us Start
If the analysis Of your finances will
permit you to spend this much each
month on a home then travel to the
pennsylvania Station at Seventh Avenue
and Thirty-third Street. Nearly every
half hour a train leaves for FLUSHING
and the other little towns along the
! North Shore out near the city's edge
where ample provisions are being made
TOR your accommodation. Seek out a
real estate broker-there are MANY in
each town--and tell him your wants.
If you would prefer hunting alone, then
get off at the Bridge Street Station in
Flushing and start out on your hunt
from there. There are four sections
where the sound of the builders ham
mers I'LL the air. Houses that sell for
New-York tribune., 1920-03-21

about 500 are to be found In the
Henderson section, which is over near
the Flushing Hospital
To the left of Broadway and north Of
the Flushing High School, fine piece
of architecture, are to be found houses
of a greater cost. Directly out Broad
way at Murray Hill and at Broadway
on-the-Hill, which are about one and
two miles from the Bridge Street Sta
ton, and may be reached either by train
or by bus line along Broadway, are
other homes of high cost.
The estimate is made by real estate
men that there are at least half a hun
dred new houses under way in these
three sections at this time.
Opportunities in the Henderson Tract
To get to the section, or to the
houses being built in the Henderson
section, take the Jamaica car and get
off at Parsons Avenue. The houses
are right there. Of a group Of per-
haps forty all but nine have been sold.
These nine are being offered at $11 900
to $4,000 and contain six, seven and
eight rooms with baths. There are
some more under way, just in
the rear Of these houses, but the build
ers are not committing themselves to
selling price on these on these yet,
because of the instability of labor and
material prices. The builders of these
houses, the Associate Operators, it is

Builders Are Active

ner of New York
in Erecting Dwell
ings for Those
Who Want To Be
Free of Landlords

Nestled IN several pretty little towns
and hamlets on Long Islands north
shore and within the city limo, among
old trees, on wooded knolls and in dips
in the terrain, are hundred houses
in various degrees Of completion. Un-
aesthetic as they are, lacking frosty
white paint and rich colored shingles
and trim, and despite ugly SCARED
cemented exteriors, surrounded with
scaRolding. building material litter and
mud-apparent hopeless disorder and
confusion, these stark and unadorned
compilations Of frame, clapboard atd
stucco should gladden. the hearts Of
the many who want to be through with
landlords before the end of the next
six weeks. The sight of them will be
to those who are not sure of their
present homes what the distant view
OF the promised land was to the Jews
harbingers of happiness, peace of mind
and contentment, a state which it is
safe to say few renters have enjoyed
since apartment owners became GER
tain that the shortage of homes was
real
Unlike ths Jews who were being led
into the land of great promise. those
who would enter Long Islands realm
of bliss must sally forth with a bag
Of American dollars.
Pittance Is Not Acceptable
The builders of Flushing, Murray Hill,
Malba, Douglaston and Little Neck are
every one students of present day eco
nomics, and are not going to let go their
buildings without substantial induce
ment. They are asking 25. 80 and so
per cent in cash on first payment. On
house held for sale at $11,50O cash
payment of $4,000 is asked, though not
demanded. You may depend that less
than $1,000 will not be acceptable, as
there is too much money seeking invest
ment in homes at this time to make it
necessary for builders to accept pit
tance. This is the view Of one builder
active in the Flushing field. From in
said, that it Is very near the view of all
outer edge Of Queens, but in every cor
ner Of the suburbs. Only amounts rang
ing into the thousands Of dollars will be
sufficient inducement to move them to
hand over comfortable homes of Colo
signs.
Procrastination Means Disappointment
And what is more, the snap judgment
Is now highly essential in the hunt for a
home if never before. Things are NOV

have a corresponding effect on suburba n
housing conditions. A wholesale lift in

New-York tribune., 1920-03-21
Stop Labor Strikes and
Unessential CONSTRUCTION

Real estate, building and labor in
terests, business men in general and
tenants unions in particular, are max
ing active preparations to be fully rep
resented at the general conference
called by Mayor Hylan for the imme-
diate settlement of the housing prob
lem of the City of New York and it's
environs.
"Mayor Hylan," said Edward A. Mac
Dougall, president of the greensboro
Corporation yesterday, "has succeeded
in developing a constructive policy in
the settlement Of this great issue,
which each day grows more serious.
''lf the committee to be appointed by
the Mayor can succeed in creating con-
ditions productive of confidence on the
part of the builder, or of the capitalist,
or both, the problem as a whole will
be soon on the high road to solution.
Builders will not undertake opera
tions when labor will not fix its COM
pensation Or it's amount of work per
diem or per dollar for more than ten
minutes.
This summarizes the situation cor
rectly, and it must be apparent that
the conditions affecting the great
building industry must either be ad-
justed at once or serious consequences
result from the non-adjustment of the
question. We have not far to search
for the reasons.
First and foremost is the great
shortage of labor in the building trades
in the City of New York Despite this
fact, however. when an adjustment of
the wage question has peen arrived at
builders must be prepared to at once
proceed with such labor and material
as are available.
Stop Unessential Construction
"The question then is how to in
crease the amount of labor available
for building trades. One way to do
this is to place some sort of an en-
barge on unessential industry; and,
pending the erection of an adequate
supply of housing, to provide for the
compulsory arbitration of all labor and
other disputes affecting building. Such
arbitration can be made compulsory
by giving the Justice of the Supreme
Court in the district affected the full
power to regulate the situation and to
enforce an equitable adjustment.
THE most serious problem confront
ing the building trades is the brick
strike. This is but one of the many
labor troubles, all of which are not
only onerous, but sntirely unsatisfsc-
