Glenn voliva has increased his for

But few have heard of voliva's stu

CAPTAIN of industry.
Voliva rescued Zion City from the

death of Dowie. With his total as

Today Voliva owns Zion City. Ev-

90 industries, which last year did
total business of S3,156,05124.
Today Voliva's properties are al

Ball Rent Act Called Great
Hindrance to Investment

The real estate field. occupying

seconded and is, at present, hrmiy
entrenched. with all evidences
tending to stability for the coming
five years.
This Is the firm belief of Morton

preston of the present conditions
Of real property activities In WASH
ington.
Materials and labor rates have
been adjusted to a great extent"
said Luchs. "and there is an ahnn-
dance of labor to be had for build
ing construction. While, during
the past few months material prices
have reached stage where they
are considered to be fair, there are
many indications that. rather than
decline, prices will increase.
"As in other vast propositions,
the law of supply and demand Is
an important ctor The sales
market in Washington is particu-
larly good, and with the absence of
stringent legislation, construction
activities would take a greater
spurt than ever before.
Much individual Building.
THE Ball rent act is a hindrance.
With it's operation, there has not
been, and will not be, any appre-
ciable investment construction. In
vestors will not gamble on the .un-
certainty of income, and with doubt
as to the payability of a property,
they are lax in erecting properties
to serve the renting population.
There are plenty of individual home
activities, for thinking people real
ize the stability of today. Also,
there is bright trade for the
erector-to-the-pu projects.
which the constructor invests only
for the purpose of sale.
The so-called alley act which
will be effective July l, is drastic
in its results insofar that those
residents of Washington byways
will be obligated to leave their
abode on or before that date. and
will have no dwelling in which
they can move.
Urges Ball Act Repeal.
Real estate dealers are aware
OF the situation which is impend-
Ing. They know of but one rem
edy. The remedy lies in the repeal
of the Ball act, an action which
would encourage construction on
vast scale.
Washington is due for the great
est building activities in its history
If Congress but permits the Ball
act to lapse. at the date of expira-
ton, in October. On this hypothe-
sis. one can realize the fastest
growing city in the nation. Over
400 families were deprived Of homes
when it was affected. because in
Vestors could not see the feasibility
OF building for the renter. II it ex-
