House Shortage
Growing Worse

projects have been held back because
OF the feeling that building costs would
recede later However, experience
has shown that those who waited have
gained nothing, while those who went
ahead with their plans have no cause
for regret. During the last year fine
amount of work projected was about
twice as much as the amount OF actual
operations.
1.-THE uncertainty as to future price
tendencies constitutes one of the most
unfavOrable factors In the situation
today.
1.-THE feeling Is being fOstered by the
slump In prices In many commodities.
II should be borne In mind, however,
that conditions Incorporated In the
general range of commodities and
those In the housing situation are not
analogous. The processes OF liquiGa-
ton such as we have witnessed lately
with regard to general merchandise
cannot include the building commod-
lily. Merchants can move their stocks
OF merchandise from their shelves
by cutting prices. and there always Is
more or less fluctuation In these lines.
Housing space, however, is generally
leased on basis of one year or more.
During periods Of retrenchment, such
as we have witnessed In this country
during the last six months, housing,
therefore, is affected less than any
other commodity. People can quickly
adjust themselves to economies In
clothing, food aud other requirements
of their daily lives, while business con.
Germs can reduce quickly operating
costs by putting into effect general
economies But In neither instance
is II generally possible or advisable
to curtail expenditures for housing
space.
No Benefit In Delay.
Some Of the abnormal prices and
bonuses which have existed In the con-
struction business win not continue to
be paid, but general fundamental con-
dltl0ns AT this time do not indicate
that there Is wisdom In Withholding
building operations.
The basic Influences which may be
expected 10 exert their force against
lower building costs may be summar-
lied as follows:
Unprecedented demand throughout
the country for housing facilities Of
all kinds.
shortage Of highly paid skilled
laborers In many OF the essential
building trades.
Tremendous Increases In business,
with corresponding increase In nee
essary building equipment. after the
present period Of reimbursement and
liquidation.
General tendency toward readjust-
ment to higher levels Of income from
property.
Export demand for American build
Ing materials as conditions improve
abroad.
"Inslstence OF public on constantly
improved standards of living. with cor
responding demand for more costly
equipment"
