HOUSING FOR ARMS
PARLEY IS MAKING
RAPID PROGRESS
Committee Wants Entire
Houses Suites and
Rooms.

The offices Of the Washington
Real Estate Board have been the
scene Of much activity during the
past few days in handling the
housing problem In connection with
the coming disarmament confer-
ence.
The frequent conferences with
the embassies and with property
owners and brokers are gradually
shaping in a definite manner the
plan outlined by the special com
mittee TO accomplish the wish OF
the Department OF State. Proper
ties are being. listed both by real
estate brokers and owners, and the
committee Is engaged in classify
ing all listings and examining the
rental charges.
Owners Lend Homes.
1t is hoped that sufficient suit
able quarters will have been OBJ
tained to place at the disposal OF
the embassies by the time their
needs have been determined. In
one or two instances owners OF
large homes have Indicated to the
embassies their willingness to
allow the principals to take over
their homes. No doubt as the time
| draws near others will do like
wise.
In addition to taking care of the
delegates, their secretaries and
other assistants II is necessary tc
see that newspaper correspondents
coming from those countries are
| properly housed. Informal observ'
ers from many countries will be In
Washington. The board desires tC
see that every person from a for.
eign country Is properly taken cart
of while in Washington. Officials
Of the Press Club have been in
Vited to seek the assistance OF thu
Real Estate Board in taking carr
of the needs of newspaper cores
pondents that are expected to com'
to Washington from every STAT
in the Union.
Entire Houses Wanted.
Special request is made of prop
erty owners and agents that fur
| nished houses and apartments, par
ticularly in the central NorthWes
and Mt. Pleasant sections, be LISTED
with the board. as in some In
stances it has been indicated hJ
the embassies that entire houses
would be preferable to suites.
The special committee supervis'
| ing the work OF the board in this
housing problem consists of Percy
H. Russell, chairman: Robert G
/ Howard. r. l. McKeever. J. Lee

OMAHA REALTY FIRM ADOPTS
PLAN TO HELP HOME BUYERS
Build Standard Design of Houses on Large
Scale to Sell on Easy Terms.

A wide awake firm in the Middle
West has opened the way to a novel
change in the modern methods of
home building. The big problem Of
today has been. and still Is, to en-
able the man Of medium earning
capacity to build or buy his own
home. The Drake Realty Company,
of Omaha. Neb.. believes that the
problem has been solved.
The company bought up a great
number of isolated lots. in parcels
of two to four earh. in scattered
residential sections of Omaha. A
standard design Of concrete house
was adopted. and two types of plans
made. a single. and a double house.
No more than three of the houses
are placed side by side in any one
location. and there are 400 projected
houses in the operation.
Easy Payment Plan.
The financial arrangements arc
very just and easy of accomplish
ment by the average wage Garner.
The initial payment is $500, the sin
gle house selling for $4,000 aud the
double houses for $1,000, the differ
ence between the principal and first
payment being paid in monthly in
stallments. The person who buys
the double houses usually rents the
spare side of the home for a great
deal more than the interest charges,
and the owner can apply on the pay
ment of the principal more than the
whole sum that he might otherwise
pay out in rent.
The single houses are twenty-one
by thirty-one feet ground plan, hav-
ing a living room, dining room, bed
room and bath all on one floor,
where the double houses are similar,
the plans for the additional side be-
ing plan one. reversed. Easements

factory to Court.

WASHINGTQN,. March 2-The sub
stitute proposal of Swift & Co., and Ar
mour & Co. for the sale of their stock
yard interests was disapproved today
by Justice Stafford in the district SUI
premc court. The court allowed 80
days for the taking of testimony as to
the value of the company's holdings,
after which they will be given an OPP
portunity to offer their stock for sale
at the price then fixed or the court viii
appoint trustees to take over the stock
as recommended by the department of
Justice
The court held that the plans pro-
posed by the two companies seemed
to make easy a long period of continued
ownership on the part of the defend
ants and in the meantime provide too
feeble a control on the part Of the
court" Justice Stafford said the de
PENDANTS were willing to sell if they
could yet fair price, but that the
question of fair price should be de
cided only after both sides are heard.
