No Money for Building
Unless Cost Comes Down

Capital will not be available for
building purposes, according to the
New York Trust Company, until con-
struction costs have been reduced to
pre-war levels. Investment in build
ing projects on present cost basis is
not regarded safe and sound, in the
opinion of the company. The prospect
of decline in building trade wages
and a fall in, the price of building ma
terials are regarded, as a consequence,
as being of greater value in relieving
the housing shortage than any legisla-
tlon SO far proposed.
The New York Trust Company gives
expression to its views on the housing
situation in an article in the April
issue Of The Index published by the
company. 1t says in part:
"Neither banks nor others with CAPT
tai to lend are going to lend it for this
purpose so long as building is not be-
lieved to present a safe or profitable
investment, and this will be true as
long as excessive costs prevail.
"a house, the materials for which
alone cost $4,000 in 1914 would now
involve a cost for materials of $4,000.
To this rise in prices of material must
be added the increase in labor cost of
construction since 1914. Not only is
the high cost of building holding up
operations by making prospective
builders wait for lower prices, but it
is responsible for the belief that at
present prices building is not the safe
and profitable investment that it should
be to invite capital"
