TURN FOR BETTER
IN BUILDING CRISIS
Speculative Constructors Aid
in improving Crisis, Re-
port Declares.

Speculative builders. fearing a
price trap" have aided in bringing
about turn for the better in the
construction crisis, declares the cur
rent Dow ervice report.
The price trap contingency. consti-
tuting the dominating fly in the build
ing contraction ointment at present. is
the danger that prices on building ma
terials now are at or near margin
cost. The probabilities of their contin-
uing at such a position should an
excessively active demand develop is
SO remote as to leave only two al
ternatives to the prospective builder.
to go ahead or wait. the report
points out.
If he waits, the speculative builder
contends, for the sole purpose of avoid
ing the rush for building material
supply early this summer he may find
himself bidding for deliveries as he
did in 1919 and 1920, instead of for
building material.
If he goes ahead now he may find
somewhat ragged market which
will tempt him to wait little longer
for still lower prices, but the fact
that steel and certain other commo obi
ties have given guarantee against
further declines, the most conserva-
tive investor must realize there is no
profit in waiting for general price re-
ductionS to come
Housing projects started early this
year will stand little chance of be-
ing ready for the leasing market be-
fore spring or autumn of 1922, by
which time the factors of foreign
demand for building material will put
the prospective American home build
er in competition with the home
builder of Cuba. Porto Rico. all of
South America il not of Europe
The present rates of exchange will
not always remain as inequitable, SO
the building financier is counseling the
prospective builder against further de-
lay in the face of the tax exemp-
ton law.

Equipment to BE Modern.
All the most modern devices in
apartment house design will be in
corporated in the building. The
heating will be by the latest vapor
method, the lighting and cooking by
electricity. the individual laundries
in the basement will have electric
clothes washers and many other un-
usual appliances will be provided.
The cooperative financing idea is
new here. 1t apparently originated
in New York some thirty years ago
and since that time has expanded
until now it has become a prevalent
method of financing new apartment
buildings in New York city. Sup
porters of the plan point out that
the cooperative apartment house
gives it's occupants a real home-a
definite portion of the building which
may be fitted out and changed to
suit individual tastes-and that it
affords means for selecting neighbors
and excluding undesirables.

FORESEES NO DROP
IN REALTY PRICES
R. L. MCKeever Says Demand
May Mean Even Higher
Mark in Washington.

There will be no drop in real estate
prices during the coming year Fur
thermore. If the demand for homes
continues at the present rate higher
prices may be looked for before sum-
mer. This is the prediction of X. Il.
McKeever of the firm of McKeever 6
Goss. given in an interview.
The statement was made in connec-
ton with announcing the sale by the
business properties department OF the
firm of the property at l145 Connecti-
cut avenue northwest to A. T.. Kelly
for sum approximating $4,000. The
building is three stories in height
with a store on the street level and
an apartment on the third floor. The
second floor is adaptable for apart
ment or office purposes. The new
owner will hold the property as an
investment.
Prices stand sound.
"It is interesting to note" said Mr..
Mckeever. that despite persistent ru-
mors for the past two years of de-
clning market and business depres-
sion, deals are continually being con-
summated and prices are essentially
sound.
The real estate bears have had
their day. They have for over two
years predicted one slump after an
other and the reasoning public are
da iX becoming more skeptical. as
prices continue to stand. They talked
of tight money. but neglected to mem
tion that changes in Administrations
have always temporarily affected the
money market: they told of govern
ment employees being laid off but said
nothing of the 65 per cent of those
people who secure other positions
here; they prophesied salary cuts
which are manifestly impossible as
long as government employees work
on the wage scale of the previous
century: they called attention TO
cheaper materials for building during
q slight iuctuation a short while aga.
| but were silent when materials In
general went as high and some higher
than during the war.
''The public has believed much OF
what it heard until quite recently
but the public, through its own rea-
soning. is opening its eyes. and each
week brings more people VINO reaiis
