Even in the act of arising N

of the prolific sources of injuries.

Uncle Sam Gets $3,822,2OO
for Fairuie,U Village Houses

The largest auction sale of houses
ever held In this or any other country
was brought to close last Wednesday
evening by Joseph P. Day, auctioneer,
after four days of the most active bid
ding and selling ever witnessed in an
auction room.
The sale was that of the 1878 houses
comprising the village of Fairview,
Camden, N. j., which was built during
the war by the United States Shipping
Board to provide homes for the work
er sin the shipysrds.
Mr.. Day started this unparalleled
sale Saturday afternoon, December 10,
selling until about O'Clock Sunday
morning. The sale ended on Wednes-
day. The total for the four days of
selling was $3,s22, 200.
Yesterday Mr.. Day and his organiza-
tlon moved over to Bristol, Pa, about
twenty-six miles from PHILADELPHIA and
ten miles from Trenton, to begin SELL
ing for the United States Shipping
Board, Emergency Fleet Corporation.
the 800 houses and business buildings
and hotel, comprising the village of
Hartman, which also was built during
the war to overcome the housing emer-
gency. The most remarkable thing
about the sale at Fairview was the fact
that when Mr.. Day mounted the stand
he faced most hostile and ill-disposed
crowd of 5000, half of whom were out

Something More
Than I Price Should
Guide Homeseekers
There Is Reason, Not AL
ways a Good One, for
House Being Offered at
Apparent Great Reduction
By Robert W. Dasey
MGlba Estates Coypoyction


To the average homeseeker the Sc
lection Of home is big problem and
offers many difficulties, especially if
the buyer is inexperienced in real es-
tate. "Fools rush in where angels fear
to tread" applies particularly to the
man who buys house because it is
cheap. If it is cheap there must be a
good reason, which may be one of
many-poor faulty construction char
acter of neighborhood, lack of trans
portation, undesirable neighbors or the
like. If you find what you want buy it
because you like it, not because it is
cheap.
The home is the basis of civilization,
the foundation of wealth. In its selec-
tlon you cannot be too careful Every
man, whatever his position in life may
be, has mental picture of his own
dream home, but does not know how to
procure it. Desire and determination
are the compelling factors. The rest
is simple if you follow conservative
method of procedure.
Advice to Home Buyers
The first step is the selection of the
locality. Look over the various sub
urbs, study locations, improvements,
AAHPoA "~UACi. iiOIiC tHVlIUiliIlCHtS ana
general conveniences, and compare
prices and advantages Pay particular
attention to the restrictions and future
protection and the atmosphere under
which your family will live Select the
building site that meets your require
ments. This may be purchased for a
very small amount of cash, balance on
easy payments. After you have pro-
cured the plot then combine your ideas
OF house, select plan and design
that suits you, have an architect pre-
pare plans, arrange your building loan
through local bank, and 20 ahead
with your building. You will then
have the advantage of living in your
own dream home
Decision is the vital factor in the
home question. Decide now, select a
plot, prepare your plans during the
winter and start building in the early
spring, and spend next summer in YOUR
own home. Every high-class suburb
has home builders service depart
ment that will gladly cooperate with
you~in securing loan, estimates, plans.
etc.
1t is important to remember that the
tten-year tax exemption applies only to
houses started before April 1, 1922.

Low Land Cost
Large Factor in

Building Further Helped by
Tax Exemption; Towns
Have Grown to Railroad
Stations as a Result
By Stephen Yates
Former President of the Long Island

Il ofUteY IjSStIeHC OF LHG Long lStUUO
Real Estate Exchange
Some Of US remember the boom times
of 1906 and 1906 when properties were
sold and resold several times in a few
weeks, and prices were put up to un-
precedented heights. Are they coming
back? Personally, hope not; and any
other man who wishes we'll for Long
Island hopes not
"A good, healthy growth, such as has
been the case this year, is much more
to be desired. Queens County is rap
idly growing around each station until
the villages, once quite distance
apart, are now being built up solidly
These are real abiding places of people
who come to live and grow up with a
part of the community.
The tax exemption law is responsible
for most of it, but the main, the real
factor that has induced so much build.
ing in Queens County, particularly of
the single-family houses so, strongly
urged by Secretary Hoover and other
patriotic citizens is the low cost of
land. Lots twenty minutes from the
Pennsylvania Station or heart of New
York in Queens County are to-day sell
ing cheaper than lots twenty minutes S
ride from the center of Rochester. Buff
falo or Syracuse. They are selling at
a fraction Of the price of lots twenty
minutes from Herald Square in upper
Manhattan or in Brooklyn or the
Bronx. This is the reason for the sue
cessfui lot sales at Flushing, Floral
Park Woodhaven and. in recent
months, st. Adams.
Nassau County has built up to the
q too
and the houses have been sold. Small
houses are being sold at particularly
advantageous terms in Freeport. Lynn
brook, Port Washington and through
the center of the island. The far
sighted bankers there are endeavorine
in every way to help the financing Of
home building and bringing up their
communities. This has been done with
out the aid of tax exemption.
Nassau County is much more live
proposition to-day than Queens County
was fifteen years ago, with the excep-
tlon of Long Island City
Suffolk County reports few sales of
large estates. Prices are down to the
1914 level in most instances. Values
must be considerably above, and when
values exceed prices the market be-
gins to move.
The reason for the small business
IN large estates is most apparent, but
the wealthy man will again mass
wealth and not pay all of it in surtaxes
and he will again be able to buy es-
tates.
The United Wireless purchase of
some 600 acres at Rocky Point is now
the greatest communication center in
the world, keeping in touch with
Europe and other continents, as well
as isolated islands of the sea. In all
probability about 800 houses will be
erected in the vicinity of this plant
and this is just beginning.

rapid growth is the enormous increase
in the number of people who have Offices
located in tho Grand Central business
zone. This great uptown move of bust
ness has brought Westchester to the
fore as the most accessible suburb for
large group of business and profes-
sional men, and has captured great
many residents of Queens County and
of the New Jersey suburbs.
Another great pulling force, and one
that is destined to become greater
within the next few years. is the new
Bronx Valley Parkway now rapidly
nearing completion. This beautiful
natural park, with it's broad motorway
running right up into the heart Of
Westchester, is going to be the means
OF selling millions of dollars of West
chester realty. Few people realize the
magnitude and the beauty of this great
park and its effect on real estate values
in the towns through which it passes.
