"Believes in Zoning."
THE realtor, therefore, believes in
scientific coming so that where first
class business properties are estab-
lished they cannot be injured by dis
agreeable factories, or where first
class residences are built they can
not be injured by undesirable BUSH
ness properties in their immediate
neighborhood.
'.Zoning may not be of such direct
interest to you men interested in
the construction industries, except
through your natural interest in the
welfare of your communities, and
through the fact that the better your
community is planned, the better
growth you can expect.
THE realtor knows best what the
people want and whether what they
want is really for their best interest
from a practical viewpoint. In short.
as a general rule, he knows better
than any one else when, where and
what to build, regardless of any ex-
ceptions you may know to that rule.

Checking up the findings Of his re-
cent tour of investigation with the
Roger w Babson, the statistician. to-
day made a very interesting obser-
walton regarding our present supply
of money. Everywhere throughout
the south and middle west" he says,
"T found business men and farmers
camoring for more money and more
credit The cry is not new one.
Ever since we have had money men
have looked to the apparently simple
formula of more money as a solution
to financial problems.
Witness Europe today, for exam
pie. They have followed this plan
meeting each new emergency with
more money and more credit. AS
result the franc has fallen from 10
cents to 9 cents, the lire from 10 cents
to cents, the mark from % cents to
one-third of a cent, and the Austria
liam crown from 20 cents to one-hun-
GrSdth of a cent! Living costs have
gone to ridiculous heights in these
latter countries. and every one is
much worse off than they were before
the imitation took place.
while this has been going on we
have steadily reduced currency and
credit. Our circulating media has
been cut from s59.43 per capitalize
figure for November. 1920-to $50.27 in
March, 1922. This is fundamentally
an Improvement which critics have
failed to realize. Fundamentally our
finances are better than they have
been for years.
Cause of Farmers' Trouble.
NO, the farmers trouble is not due
to the supply of money" continued

Plans for Meeting.
Extensive preparations have been
made by the San Francisco Real Es-
tate Board, with the cooperation of
the boards throughout California, to
provide entertainment for every mo-
ment Of the stay of the visiting real
tors not occupied by the serious work
of the convention. From the time the
delegations cross the California line
they will be made to feel the warmth
of California hospitality through
welcomes of the various communitiee
en- route.
The program of entertainment is
brief and as follows:
the southern route Los Angeles will
form a motor caravan to convey the
realtors up through California's won
derful valleys to the convention city.

ITINERARY ADOPTED
FOR REALTORS TRIP
Plans for Journey to San
Francisco Convention
Announced.

A complete itinerary for the dele
gates from the Washington Real Es-
tate Board to the annual convention
of the National Association of Real
Estate Boards. May 31-June 3, in San
Francisco, has been adopted, 1t was
announced today by Thomas e. Jar
rell, chairman of the convention COM
mittee of the local board.
According to the itinerary as ar
ranged, the delegation will leave
Washington May %. and will make
stops in St. Louis. Kansas City, Grand
Canyon, Los Angeles. Salt Lake City
and Chicago. Extensive sightseeing
trips at each of the stops are now
being arranged. From the express
sions of the members that attended
the committee meeting it was clearly
evident that the motor caravan, which
has been arranged for by the Los
Angeles board, met with universal
approval of the local realtors. This
caravan is destined to complete the
journey to San Francisco. covering a
trip approximately 500 miles over
splendid highways, traversing what
is considered prettiest section of
California.
w nile the Dali UOdIu has
arranged the usual program, such as
dinners. sightseeing trips and other
local entertainment. the principal
feature. which is possible only to coast
cities, is an ocean trip. 1t is expected
that most of the realtors from the
east will take advantage of the OPP
portunity of a ride through San Fran
cisco bay out on the Pacific ocean.
Immediately after the convention a
golf tournament will be held at Del
Monte for the San Francisco trophy.
This arrangement requires an extend
ed trip of three days, during which
time other California organizations
are planning liberal entertainment.
Expect to Win Prize.
Complete announcement of the trip
and the details of the convention have
been sent each member of the local
board, and it Is expected that within
another week the definite delegation
will have been named. While the
club, which was formed some months
ago for the purpose OF paying in
monthly ~installments the gross ex-
penses, was composed of only thirty
members. these, with their wives and

nances calling for sanitary and safe
housing accommodations People
think that real estate owners reap
huge profits out of slum areas be-
cause the rents received are often
so, much higher in proportion to
properties: They forget the rapid
deterioration, the greater cost of
maintenance. the losses through bad
debts, and above all, the losses
through falls in values. They do not
realize that real estate owners best
interests lie in eliminating slum dis
tricts and raising values.
ITO eliminate slum districts. how
ever, two things must be done that
are interrelated: Industrial workers
means must be found to build houses
at such cost that they can be rent
ed to them at wages they can afford
, to pay.
Problem of Centuries.
This problem has existed for CEN
turtles, but it is emphasized toSdy be-
cause of the shortage of houses
caused by the war and the present
prices OF building, which are higher
in proportion than the present levels
of rent in proportion to prices and
rents In 1914. The welfare of this ma
ton demands rapid progress toward
its solution.
There is no one who is firmer be-
lever than I am in the memorable law
of supply and demand, but I believe
that the employers of this country
must recognize the steadily increas-
ing uneven distribution of wealth in
this country, with it's consequent men,
ace, and realize that whenever pos
sible it is better to pay higher wages
than necessary rather than make an
effort to keep to the minimum de-
manded.
ssNoth;o. MOULD ha1o .o1,,a Tho ho,,s
ing problem quicker than to have all
employers who are making. say, more
than 6 per cent on their capital, in
crease the wages Of their employees. I
might suggest that all profits more
than said per cent be distributed
between the capital and the pay roll
in like proportions although there
are many other ways of reaching the
same result. I believe that the en-
ployers gain by such methods through
getting better service.
THE construction industries can
also do their part by trying to elimi-
nate waste and unnecessary costs in
construction. We need at least a mil
lion more houses and it will take
years at best to fill the demand. Why
above demand or to do anything that
in any way tends to keep. up prices
other than demand and supply? Re-
striction of output and the unreason-
able rules of labor unions must go,
and SO must similar unreasonable
combinations Of manufacturers.
Duty OF Realtor.
"The realtor can, perhaps. only help
through public opinion in this last.
but he can help you in advising what
people can pay, the real demand and
the nature of it in any given commu-
nifty. He can also assist you in elimi-
mating unreasonable and unnecessary
provisions in building codes.
