Ready for Several
Hundred Homes
Another Tract To Be Dis
posed Of at Auction;
Demand for Sites Reason
Given for Coming Sale

Although several thousand Long
Beach lots have been sold in the last
few years at private and public sales
the demand for property there for inn
provement with homes for summer or
all-year occupancy has induced the
staging of another big auction sale of
property. A tract Of several blocks in
the vicinity of the new automobile
bridge, the yacht club and the Lido
Golf Club grounds will be placed on
the auction block by the owners and
struck down for whatever bidders will
pay.
Although public announcement of
the Forthcoming sale was made onIv
yesterday, the owners Of the property
and Joseph P. Day, who will be the
auctioneer, have received many re
quests Tor information regarding the
land to be sold. There are III lots
IN the tract that will be offered to
the public starting on Saturday, Sep
