(June "a, July ~
New-York tribune., 1921-01-30

Belief that building prices are soon
to fall and that builders will then re-
sumo the construction of housings has
brought home buying to a standstill.
+. Ray Howe, president of the
greensboro Corporation, speaks of this
as a delusion which cannot have any
other effect but to continue the incon-
veniences and annoyances which folks
are bearing in the hope that relief is
near.
"This attitude" Mr.. Howe said, "has
injured the few builders who have put
up houses and who are unable to sell
them because of the lack of public
confidence in the stability of present
prices. These few houses, therefore,
not finding a market, have caused build
ers TO withdraw from the field with a
determination to stay out of building
until the public demand for living ac-
commodations revives.
ut may be we'll to analyze for a
moment this question of cheaper build
ing in the immediate future. Con-
tinued high prices of coal in the face
of a great decline in many other fun
damental commodities makes it ex-
tremely unlikely there will be very
much of decline in the price of q
large number of building materials in
which coal is large element of cost,
such as lime and cement.
Freight Rates Penalize
"The lumber market has suffered
temporary collapse because Of a COM
lete cessation of demand due to the
over+speculation of the postwar boom
in this material A permanent factor
in the increase of the cost of this ma
New-York tribune., 1921-01-30
Belief That Building Cost
Will Soon Drop Misleading

terial, however. has been introduced
i'll the new freight rates, which fall
with particular severity upon all bulky
and heavy materials, such as lumber.
"The skilled trades, which constitute
the major part Of the labor engaged in
the construction Of buildings, are very
much under-manned in New York City
many of the unions having fewer
members than they had ten or fifteen
years ago. There has been a tendency
toward increased efficiency since the
falling off in building, but the ques-
tion of how long this efficiency would
be maintained if building were to re-
sumo is, to say the least, q very un-
certain factor.
perhaps some of the most serious
deterrents to increased volume of
buildings are high interest rates and a
disproportion between the amount
loaned upon building and its present
cost Of production, which requires
builder to invest very substantial
amount of his own capital in the con-
struction of buildings. The effect of
this is to limit the possible building
to a relatively small number of people
who have sufficient funds to make up
the difference between the small loans
and the high cost. These builders are
not going to put their money into rem
tai propositions under the present rent
laws, particularly in view of the fact
that if the situation is not relieved the
rent laws are likely to be continued in
effect for further period. They can
only be induced to build if they can
sell.
No Surety for Builders
"This brings US to the root of the
w mo p,y11S
shirts-they cannot be produced in
day. The shortest time in which a
building enterprise, even under the
most favorable conditions, can be
started and finished is one year, and in
many recent instances it has taken a
longer time.
"The only possible inducement for
builder to take the risks and hazards,
which extend over so long period
of time, is feeling that he will have
a ready market for his completed ar
ticle. AS long, therefore, as the pub
lie refuses to buy what little is now
offered no buildings will be produced.
II is only the encouragement of an &C
to go into new building with all of the
unfavorable factors that builder has
to contend with to create the buildings.
what the public wants it must pay
for, not in pre-war costs or in some
future reduction in price, but in terms
of the present cost of construction,
whatever that may be. Waiting will
nor. 90 any good, because waiting
simply intensifies the demand which
nobody is attempting to supply, and
in the normal growth Of cities, such
as New York, very short cessation
of production in such matter as
building causes very serious public
discomfort
Delusion About Building
Building is like every other com
modify which finds its way into the
markets OF the world-to be produced
II must be sold at profit when com
pleted. Many people entertain vague
Nnt bu'idings will be put up by
the rich and sold or rented 1T cost.
" nv TINS delusion should persist in re-
gard to building when the mere state
ment of it with regard to the produc-
ton of any other fundamental human
necessity would be considered absurd
New-York tribune., 1921-01-30
Shortage WiU
81 Continue for
et 20 Years Unless

The housing shortage at rents of
$40 per month per room and under
is acute and daily becoming more
so.
Eighty per cent of New York
City's population cannot afford out
of their earnings to pay $40 per
month per room for rent.
Land values, cost of material,
labor. taxes, mortgage interest,
maintenance and operation are SO
high that it is impossible eco
nomically to rent such new housing
at rents of $40 per month per room
and under.
If there was a billion dollars of
mortgage money ready for new
housing and solvent builders ready
to incur liability for. mortgage loans,
little if any new housing would or
could be built to rent for under
$50 per month per room.
The United States or the City of
New York VIII not overcome the
housing shortage in twenty years
unless and until it subsidies every
new multi-family housing building
to the extent of 25 per cent or more
of its cost. Exemption from munic-
ipaf taxation for five years will
help, but il isn't sufficient.
Compelling New York States fl
nancial institutions by statute to in
vest 100, 80. %. 10 or per cent of
their assets in housing mortgage
loans will in my opinion not build
new building for housing. but
will probably prevent. the present
calling of mortgage loans.

is mystery, but it still persists in
some minds. Others of more radical
complexion vociferate in favor Of state
building. Such building has been a
failure wherever it has been attempted.
While the state builds one house, ten
houses which might have been built
under private enterprise are not under
taken. If the state sells at cost, its
cost would represent handsome profit
to the experienced builder--such is the
lnefficiency of public efforts Of this
kind in which politics plays SO large q
part.
New York, London. Paris. Berlin,
Chicago, all the great cities of the
world, have been built by the specu-
lative builder. who has made his living
by the profits he has earned in tho
construction Of these cities. Until the
public is willing to pay fair price to
net the builder profit on the cost Of
production, the present housing short
age is likely to continue. 1t certainly
will in New York, where the normal
laws of supply and demand have been
upset by legislation"
