HOME OWNERSHIP

THE census bureaus statement on home ownership in the United
States has aroused keen interest from coast TO coast. Many
= newspapers have found the significance of the census showing,
as applied to their own communities. Des Moines, Iowa, points with
pride to the fact that 81 per cent Of its people own their homes. New
York newspapers mourn the fact that only two out of every one hun
bred in the metropolis an call their homes their own.
New York has reason to mourn, for there seems no way that il
can extend home ownership materially. Real estate values are pro-
hibitive for all save the rich and this condition has it's effect in all
the other great cities. The home ownership showing of Des Moines,
a city, although a small one, is remarkable.
In Albuquerque, fortunately, there is no %prohibitive real estate
valuation against home ownership by the present generation. Any
one who has the desire and the determination to own a home here
can achieve it.
Is il profitable TO own a hOme9
Is there anything in the old saying, once generally accepted,
that il is cheaper TO pay remit
If that is true landlords are very foolish, and not many landlords
of our acquaintance or yours look pr act like fools.
Upkeep, depreciation, insurance, interest on investment, taxes
etc,-Somebody pays them. Few landlords make any pretense of
being phlanthropBts. Every landlord who is attending to his bust
ness sees to it that the tenant pays all the fixed charges-plus a profit
Some landlords are more reasonable than others as TO the size of the
profit; but profit there must be If there are to be roofs to shelter
renters.
Eliminating sentiment. pride Of possession, the invaluable feeling
of security and the foundation of responsibility that home owner
ship brings, isn't II worthwhile TO pay the landlords profit to your
self
There are always exceptions to the rule; conditions of uncertain
or temporary residence that make home-ownership investment un-
wise. Thus there will always be tenants and landlords are entitled TO
a fair profit for meeting their needs.
But whenever conditions of residence are reasonably permanent
the rule holds. Home ownership pays as a business proposition. The
sentimental social and mental benefits are excess profits.

ENFORCE THE LAW

1T may be difficult to enforce prohibition law along the Rio Grande
AM. the rest Of the Mexico border. II may be hard to stop viola
= tons along the Atlantic seaboard or the Canadian line. But Il is
not a difficult matter 10 enforce the law in i Albuquerque or any
other New Mexco town or county. There enforcement becomes simply
a question Of official vigilance, courage and trustworthiness.
One night last week the mayor of Las Vegas arose in his place
and with the city councils approval, addressed the assembled police
force rs follows:
Gentlemen, you will watch for every violation of the
liquor laws If you see liquor being sold, learn the name of
the seller and report il at once, that a warrant may be issued
for his arrest. Such warrant may be issued by any United
States officer, or by a justice of the peace. Get the names of
the buyers. Keep a constant lookout for violations. Make
every bootlegger afraid to ply his trade in East Las Vegas.
You have heard the counclmen express themselves as firmly
as have done in favor of stopping the illegal sale of liquor
and enforcing the law. This is your authority for doing So
Every local peace officer, under the sheriff or the police chief is
under oath TO enforce the law. There is national law and state law
in New Mexico against the sale of liquor. 1t is as much the duty of
a local peace officer to help enforce the law as it is the duty Of a
federal enforcement officer. When local authorities generally begin
TO take the courageous stand for law enforcement that has been taken
by the city government Of Las Vegas prohibition enforcement in this
country win become a reality instead Of a joke, and all the talk Of a
breakdown of law enforcement in this nation will cease.
A majority Of the people of the United States want prohibition.
When a majority ceases 10 want il prohibition will be repealed. Until

great deal Of time to 90 out and personally collect the dues with
which to pay himself his salary for doing the work. he is forced to
neglect in order TO round up deinquents.
Has a secretary 50 loaded with routine time or chance to do
creative work, to initiate new business, to 60 out after the bigger
things that are being utterly neglected.
OF course he has not. The big work goes undone. Albuquerque
stands still. Business slumps-
And we wonder whyi
This director, in his statement pointed out that the Chamber Of
Commerce is self supporting; living within its income. That s
fine, II q chamber Of commerce is an institution to do routine work
and nothing else. A chamber of commerce living within Its income
and practically out Of debt furnishes a mighty good foundation
from which to start; and from that starting ground we, 81 a com.
munty, are going Omewhere-forwsrd or backward. It 5 up to
US to decide.
The work that has been done by the Chamber Of Commerce
during the past two or three years should not be overlooked or be-
Titled In addition to the routine work outlined above, it has CO.
operated in charitable, benevolent and social service movements Of
many kinds 1t has kept up fairly well with those things hereto
fore established through community enterprise and effort.
But the big need Of Albuquerque during the past two or three
years, in the present and in the immediate future, Is more business,
more population, more attention to the work that creates and fosters
business, trade, industry, jobmaking and that encourages the in
flow and fosters the more fluent circulation of the plain, unromantic,
sordd dollar.
The director, whose statement has been referred to, said:
'our ability 10 include more important work for Albuquerque
In the budget for the coming year depends absolutely upon getting
into the organization more members who are willing to join on the
basis of prompt payment of dues and active cooperation in the
work" n.
That tells the story. The Chamber of Commerce. in order to
do the work before il, must have plenty Of members paying plenty
Of dues and actively cooperating in the work
Those conditions are fundamental. The most important Of
them is The willingness of the individual member, whether a direc-
tor, or a committee chairman or member, to cooperate actively in
the work-to go out and do the things that must be done.
If il is the Chamber Of Commerce, the present official organiza-
ton, that is asleep, there is a way for an alert community spirit
10 wake it up and put 1t TO work.
If it is Albuquerque community spirit that is asleep the sit
uation is far more critical and it becomes the urgent duty Of the
Chamber of Commerce, as now organized, to turn on the commun-
ity alarm clock and keep it ringing until everybody has heard and
needed the bell.
If the present organization does not know how to ring the bell,
or Is unwilling to make the effort, let it turn over the old gong to
machinits who can and will make it work. There is nothing the
matter with the bell.
