TABLES SIMPLIFY

Costs of Different Materials

Tables simplifying the calculation
of timber sizes required by certain
building regulations have been is

facturers' Association, it was an

quarters of the organization.
The following explanatory state
ment was issued:
There are many materials that
are now about on a par. as far as
availability is concerned, and the
structures built of them are general
ly quite satisfactory. The costs of
the different materials in many cases
being nearly the same, builders will
be influenced to use the materials
about which they may have the
greatest knowledge and which will
require the least tedious mathemati-
cal and engineering calculations to
determine the sizes required. Really

NEW YORK, October 14.-Recom-
mendation that the National Associa-
tion of Real Estate Boards foster the
establishment of educational courses
in real estate throughout the country
along lines of the course conducted
in Washington under auspices OF the
local real estate board was made by
John \. Petty, executive secretary
of the Washington Real Estate Board.
before the national committee Of the
association here.
Mr.. Petty suggested that standard
course in real estate might be evolved
from the several courses now under
way in various parts of the country
and pointed out that text books could
be drafted by q proper committee
OF the association.
Professional Plane Sought.
Excerpts from a paper on this sub
5ect read by AIR. Petty before the
national committee follow:
Underlying all the activities of the
National Association of Real Estate
Boards and its affiliated local boards
is the earnest determination to place
the practice of real estate OH a pro-
fessional plane Decided progress to-
the constructive activities and untir-
ing efforts of your leaders. both past
and present. No phase of this work
offers greater possibilities for the
ultimate achievement of this goal
than the movement which has re-
suited in the establishment of real
estate courses. This is true for the
reason that education and training
must combine with experience to
qualify one to practice a profession.
Though still in its infancy. this
movement has already shown signs
of definite progress. and IL Is my
opinion that the next few years Will
see noteworthy and definite develop
ments toward the inclusion of real
estate in the curriculum OF schools
and colleges universally.
Educational work in real estate
presents a situation similar to that
which confronted the bankers some
twenty years ago, when the Amer
fcan Institute of Bank Clerks, now
the American Institute Of Banking,
was organized"
The history Of the movement in
banking education is much the same
in CIR taracter and presents very SINH
lar problems. There are the purely
legal texts on real property, but there
is very little written about the real
estate business as whole. So far l
have only been able to obtain one
volume that treats OF the entire field
In the form~of text book. and this
one is perhaps somewhat too advanced
for the work now being conducted.
