Significance Of the title "realtor,"
which is now generally recognized as
the official designation for members
of the constituent bodies of the Ma

Boards, was explained In statement
issued today by John A. Petty, ex-

The title is fast growing to mean
much more than merely a real estate
agent" Mr.. Petty announced
Being coined word officially
adopted by the National Association
of Real Estate Boards. the right to
its use is restricted to members only.
This right has been upheld by a Min
nesota court. where suit resulted
from it's use by one who was not en-
titled to this privilege. Following
this test case local boards in every
city have persistently guarded the
title and will not permit it's public use

Significance In Title.
Real estate boards through their

a significance that justifies the efforts
MADE to protect it. Through close

country and in all branches of the
business it has been possible to
standardize the methods and prac-
tices that are used In everyday trans
actions. In this standardization def
mite principles of ethical relations
between brokers and between bro

fled and officially adopted by all real

principles. which are applicable in

PHENOMENAL GAIN
Middle Atlantic Statistics
for Eight Months, In n:
cIude Capital.

Phenomenal construction gains were
recorded during the first eight
months of this year for the middle
Atlantic states. embracing the Dis
trict of Columbia. according to a re-
view of building activity announced
by the F. w. Dodge Company.
Total building contracts awarded
during this period in eastern Penn
sylvania, southern New Jersey, Dela-
Virginia and the Carolinas have
amounted to s347,17o.ooo, which rs
only $4,000. 900 under the amount foe
the entire year 1921. Compared with
the first eight months of 1921. this
years increase is 55 per cent.
August contracts amounted to $780,
39s. 900. which was decline of "a per
cent from the previous month and
Of 4 per cent from the corresponding
month of last year. Last months
figures included: s14.SS1,000. or 81
per cent, Tor residential buildings:
$5,sS5,000, or l6 per cent. for public
works and utilities: 81 900. or IL

during the month amounted to s52,-
$4,000.
Contracts awarded in the twenty
seven northeastern states during Au-
gust amounted to $322.001.oo0, ac-
cording to the Dodge Company. This
figure was 46 per cent over that OF
August. 1921, and only per cent un-
der that of July. 1922. That sea-
sonal decline has set in after four
months of unprecedented activity and
that the decline is so slight would
seem to be a most wholesome indi-
cation for the remainder of the year,
1t is stated.
The August figures brought the to-
tai for the year to date up TO S2.Ses..
S72 900, which is not only the largest
figure for the first eight months OF
any year, but is greater by s7,00o,eo0
than the total for the entire year

on the eight months basis, this year

The outstanding feature of the Au-
gust statement is the increase in in
dustrial plant construction, which
amounted to $67 7.373.000. or q per
cent of the months total This is the
largest monthly figure for this class
since March, 1920. One project ac-
counted for s35.000.0o0 of this large
total. the by-product coke plant OF

single project. the remaining amount
is greater than any monthly total since
