Small Home
Building Now
In Full Swing
Call on Material Centers In
dicates That Obstacles to
Residential Projects Are
Gradually Disappearing

In the face of what now appears to be
the development Of nationwide build
ing construction movement of consider
able magnitude building material dis
tributors find themselves slipping into
market vacuum that is causing them
considerable concern, according to the
current Dow Service daily building re-
ports.
What seemed to be insurm ountable
obstacles to the speedy progress of the
1921 building movement a few weeks
ago have dissolved before the glare of
demand for space accomm odation.
These barriers were chiefly represented
by tightness of mortgage money, build
ing material supply ur mill centers and
high cost of labor. Impatience has
come to be the market menace of the
moment.
Building material manufacturers
have been accustomed for so long to
cater to the big order markets that
they are still prone to shape their pro-
duction schedules upon this class of
business for the early part of this year.
This sort of business, however, is not
Immediately in sight, although. it is
discernible in the form of projects now
entering upon architects boards.
The preponderant volume of demand
for building materials until June will
be for comparatively small order con-
struction, such as private homes, etc.
1t takes many such structures to take
the place in building material require
ments of single large commercial
project, which type of construction has
been beyond even serious contempla-
tion for the last six months while
money rates were out of reach of or
dnary investors, cost of materials was
prohibitive and labor Indifferent.
Since last autumn this big order bust
ness has been out of the market. Com
mercial projects started before that
time are now nearing completion, and
when work on them has been finished
there will not have been enough new
work developed to take up the sag.

Support for Economy
Program Asked in State
Discussion of Pending Amend
ments To Be Held at Town
Hall Wednesday

Former Governor Alfred E. Smith and
John Lord O'Brian, of Buffalo, will be
the leading speakers at the Town Hall,
Forty-third Street and Sixth Avenue,
Wednesday at a meeting intended to
emphasize she need of permanent
program of economy in the state ad-
ministration. Former Attorney Cen
eral George W. Wickersham will pre-
side. The gathering is under the direc-
tion of the State Association.
Great interest has been aroused in
the constitutional amendments for
state reorganization which are before
the Legislature. Two of these passed
last year. They effect the consolida
tion of the 1877 bureaus and depart
ments at present in, the state govern
ment, creating twenty-one departments,
and also create a short ballot, by
which only the Governor, Lieutenant
Governor and the Attorney General
will be elected. These two amend
ments, if passed this year, will go be-
fore the people in November.
Two other amendments, one creating
a. four-year term for the Governor and
the other an executive budget system.
are to be passed for the first time.
Many legislators are impressed with
the need for putting this program
through, since all the reorganization
program proposed by Governor Miller
has been confined to the industrial com
mission and partial consolidation of
the tax collecting agencies.
Meetings are to be. held in various
parts of the state to direct public opin-
ION to these measures.

Clamor for City Life and

III fzEFff - -
Demand for Farms Conveys Be-

Toward COuntrx

Decreasing wages. lack of employ
ment and the continued high living
costs in the cities are believed to be
the chief features behind the steadily
increased movement back to the
farm" which is gaining Id volrmsI
every day. According to the E. A.
Strout Farm Agency reported pur-
chasers of improved farms now show
more than double the number OF trans
actions as compared with year ago.
While the movement" stsIl is most
strongly evident in New England than
in any other section of the country, it
is increasing with remarkable rapidity
throughout the entire territory east
of the Mississippi. There also has been
very heavy increase in improved
farm transfers during the last few
weeks in Arkansas and MISSOURI and
even in Minnesota and Wisconsin,
where farm sales have been extremely
few in the last year.

Estate Ready to Sell
Bronx Lots to Builders
Long-Owned Property Near Van
Cortlandt Park To Be
Sold at Auction

Property belonging to one of the old
est estates in the Bronx is to be sold
by Bryan L. Kennedy at the vesey
Street Exchange Salesroom, on Wednes-
day, April 6. 1t is the holdings of the
Niles estate and has been in the family
for NOR than half century. 1t con-
sists of sixty building lots and three
dwellings, and is situated midway be-
tween Van Cortlandt and Bronx parks.
The lots face on Mosholu Parkway,
cambridge and Van Cortlandt avenues.
This is the only vacant land in this
section. The surrounding property has
been improved in the last twenty years
with apartments and dwellings
Improvement in this section has kept
pace with steady march and develone
ment of the Bronx. From a careful
study of the sewage and.paving OF Man
haitian the Bronx, which was developed
later, profited greatly by taking the
best ideas of what had been done be-
fore, and as result has the finest i'm
provements known to engineering.
The dwellings to be sold are of frame
construction, containing six rooms and
bath each, with furnace heat, electric
light and gas.
The city's two largest and most
ella borate parks are within a five minute
walk of the property, and Mosholu
Parkway, beautiful driveway. is the
connecting link between these two
mammoth Fairgrounds.
Since the enactment of the housing
tax exemption ordinance construction
of homes in greater New York has
shown big increase, due directly to
the advantages offered builders under
the new ordinance For the first two
weeks in March the plans were laid
for homes for 1,076 families. an in
crease of 81 Y per cent over the same
period last year.

7'centy Bathing Girls IL, Skirtless Silk
Suits and 299, $50 Others on Boardwalk

The movement of this great parade
was halted on a number of occasions.
A hutter of interest and the attention
OF the paraders was caused by a score
of girl swimmers from the Amba ssador
and Hygea' pools, who made tn .ir ap-
pearance in skirtless silk bathing suits
Officials on the walk, including a life
guard, refused to interfere with the
maids, but admonished the crowd who
stopped to watch, to keep moving.
The sight Of an attractive blonde
rolling along in a chair calmly smok-
ing cigarette disturbed the equanim-
ity Of the less sophisticated among
the paraders, while even the oldest old
timer turned to gaze after a sprightiy
young woman who displayed $1OO bill
beneath anextremely diaphanous stock
ing
The progress Of the parade was in
terrupted at another time, when a group
OF movie operators strove to snap the
more illustrious among those who par
ticipated in the parade, including Mayor
Hylan, former Governor Smith of New
York. and Charles F. Murphy, leader of
Tammany Hall.
Train service to the shore was ade-
quate, the motor roads we're reported in
the best condition and the hotels, large
and small, were able to handle the
crowds that filled their dining rooms at
the conclusion of the parade.

Cerman-Made Lens Arrives
Wesleyan University Receives
Glass Ordered Before War

MlDDLETOWN, Conn, March 27.-
Revival Of the German cutting
and grinding industry, suspended to
great extent during the war, has been
evidenced by the arrival here of a 20
inch lens for the gigantic telescope at
Van Week Observatory of Wesleyan
University.
The lens was ordered in 1914 from
cutting firm in Jena, Germany, few
days before war was declared For six
years the works remained idle but in
recent months they, resumed activity
With installation of the glass Off

ceed with plans to determine stellar
distances, cooperating with Greenwich
Observatory. the Mount Wilson Solar
Observatory u the Yerkes Observatory
and the observatories at the University

used here has a 20-inch aperture and
focal length of 26 feet.

specid Dispatch to The Tribune

ATLANTIC CITY, March 27.-A con-
servative estimate of the number Of
participators in the Easter parade on
the Boardwalk here to-day was 300 1000.
There was no noticeable crowding re-
ported, either on the trains, on the
motor roads or in the hotels, however.
The big pageant started sharply at
noon, but did not reach its full glory
of fashion and numbers until an hour
later, when the thousands who had at
tended special church services paraded
on the walk. Probably no gayer cos
tuning was ever seen at the seashore.
Hats were brilliant as to coloring, the
frocks were embroidered from waist to
hem and the showing of hose of many
tints was up to the early predictions Of
what Easter styles were to be.
At the height of the parade hour the
Boardwalk was filled from rail to rail
fol miles with one moving mass of
color and gayety. A score of profess
sional models brought here by we'll
known New York costumer were swal-
lowed up beyond attention among the
crowds of amateur mannekins, who
actually outshone them in many in
stances in the color scheme or style
of costume.

Mrs. w. w. Lanahan Dies
After Fall From Horse
Baltimore Society Woman, Well
known Here, Succumbs to
Accident Ten Days Ago

1DSStuS CtsputCH 10 no ~ TfOuU8
BALTIMORE, March 27.-Without
emerging from the state Of uncon-
sciousness caused by fall from her
horse ten days ago, Mrs. William Wal
lace Lanahan, one of the most expert
horsewomen in Maryland and leader
in the Elkridge Hunt Club, died at mid
night Saturday. Death was caused by
fracture of the skull and cohcussion
of the brain.
Mrs. Lanahan was prominent in So
clety and was we'll known in Philadel-
phia'and New York socially and in hunt
club circles. Her husband, two small
chlsdren, her parents, Mr.. and Mrs.
Leigh Bonsal; her sisters, Mrs. Fred
erick Seggerman, Of New York, and
Miss Frances Leigh Bonsal, and her
brothers, Leigh Bonsal jr. and H. Pleas
ants Bonsal, were at her bedside when
death came.
Mrs: Lanahan's condition was re-
garded as serious from the first.
When she was thrown from her mount
near the old Harrison Rider place
while returning from hunt it was
thought by her companions that she
had been killed instantly, but when it
was seen that she was still living she
was rushed to hospital.
Extremely fond of outdoor life, Mrs.
Lanahan was an ardent huntswoman.
At one time she was selected to act as
master of hounds at the Elkridge Club
temporarily, while her father, Leigh
bonsal, who was master Of hounds, was
away. The selection of q woman was
without precedent at the club.

White House Egg Rolling

Youngsters to Frolic on Grounds
To-day While Marine Band

WASHINGTON, March 27.-After q
lapse of four years, Easter egg rolling
will be permitted on the White House
grounds tomorrow, and Washington
youngsters will roam at will over the
immense lawn that stretches toward
the Potomac. Grown-ups, except those
accompanying children, will be barred.
Tho President and Mrs. Harding have

rollers. The Marine Band will furnish
music.
The annual frolic was discontinued
by President Wilson in 1917, after war
was declared. Mr.. Wilson always in
sisted, while the custom prevailed, that
all should be free to come, and would
not restrict admittance to holders of
cards. President and Mrs. Harding
have taken similar position, and no
cards for tomorrow have been issued.

the spirit of true democracy, a trust

the real sources, and that the cause of

Two motives inspired the slowly
moving columns OF humanity that, at
midday yesterday covered the pave
ments of Fifth Avenue. Whether It
was Easter or the Passover they cele-
brated. the strollers had come to see
or to be seen.
Insupefablc difficulties stood in the
way of an accurate scharting Of the
throngs to show what percentage was
present for exhibition purposes and
what was merely spectators. The most
practical method that presented itself,
however, was to count the number Of
escorts who wore silk hats. The cas-
lest way to do that was from the ton
of a Fifth Avenue bus.
Tho average was eleven to each block
lboth sides of the avenue) from the
Waldorf Astoria to Fifty-ninth Street,
where the gilded statute Of General
Sherman shamelessly ignores the
tdraped figure of Victory that shares
his pedestal and keeps his Eyes fast
ened on the nude in the fountain be-
fore the Hotel Plaza. This count did
not include several who carried coach

that time-honored procession were con-

brims of hard black derbies, faded

Psycho-An7alysis
Now Rivals Jazz, .
Chesterton Finds
Believes Modern Forms of
Mysticism May Yet Turn
People to Religion, in Or
der to Save Their Reason

What Gilbert K. Chesterton thinks of
psycho-analysis and it's exponents is
made evident in his lecture on "The
Revolt Against Reason" delivered in
tne Apollo Theater last night. Instead
tlon, as he does at present, he saws that
one OF these days he is going to bang
some one in the nose for asking him
what he thinks of psycho-analysis.
ms new game of psyche o-analysis
seems to be a formidable rival of jazz
ISM" said Mr. Chesterton. ut deals
with part of ourselves beyond our
control and creates certain amount of
lrresponsibility. l do not say that all
the exDonents of this science or amuse-
ment, or whatever it is, are responsible
ior this laxity, but the general theory
is that 1T is exceedingly dangerous to
suppress any impulse. The immoral
poeentiailty OF this is less important
IN my eyes than the irrational potenti-
aiity. One may class psyche analysis
with the various forms of revolt against
ratlonallsm which are always liable t6
cross the line and become revolt
against reason"
Mr.; Chesterton launched a general
attack on modern forms of mysticism,
yelling good deal of conviction be-
hind his light, entertaining form of
discourse; al curse He said that people would
be forced to turn to religion to save
their reason if the fad for Christian
Science. spiritualism, psycho-analysis
ana kindred cults were to persist.
All forms. of modern revolt are
against modern things and rarely
against anything that is ancient" said
Mr.. Chesterton. "Socialism is not a
revolt against despotsm or feudalism,
but against capitalism, and capitalism
is not only older than Socialism. There
are two kinds of revolt-the normal
and sane, or the kind of revolt that
goes too far. Christian Science is an
extreme reaction against materialism
There IS more materialism in Chris
tianity than in any of the modern
forms of mysticism. Recent scientific
suggestions either. conflict with or put
strain on reason. The tendency of
modern revolt against reason is to
sweep away all bounds. 1t amounts to
fanaticism."
