NEED A BILLION IN
HOUSING LOANS.
Queensborough Business Men
Appeal to Savings Banks
for Assistance.

THE Borough of Queens needs one
billion dollars annually for the next ten
years for investment in real estate mort
cages SO that this section of the metrop-
oils may fulfill its destiny as the Home
Borough of the city," said P. A Row
ley, treasurer of the greensboro Cham
Der of Commerce and vice-president OF
the Bank of Manhattan Company. at a
recent meeting Of the executives Of the
largest savings banks In Manhattan and
Brooklyn.
"This borough, possessing every eco
nomic advantage as well as the best OF
rapid transit and with a building pro-
gram at present which exceeds every
other city in the country with two ex-
ceptions, is yet handicapped because the
officials of some of the larger savings
institutions in Manhattan and Brooklyn
are not aware Of these important con-
ditions
Queens needs a market annually for
the sale of at least $4,000 mortgages
ranging from $4,000 to $4,000 each on
detached and semi-detached dwellings.
In this way the big savings institute ons
of Manhattan and Brooklyn can assist
the residents Of the congested sections
of the city to seek healthful and attrac-
tive living quarters The borough also
needs millions annually to finance thou
sands of multi-samily houses and apart
ment buildings which are to be built
"It is an interesting fact that OF the
twenty-one savings banks In Brooklyn
fifteen loaned more than s5.000,000 on
Queens mortgages In 1921, while of the
thirty savings banks In Manhattan and
The Bronx only two invested the small
sum OF s3y.500 in the borough in that
year.
"The life insurance companies during
the last two years have loaned more
than $5,O00,0OO in Queens mortgages
compared with $9.700 for the twelve
months ended July /. 1914. This in
dicates the opinion which the officers
of these great financial institutions. such
as the Metropolitan Life Insurance Com
pany, now have of the value OF Queens
mortgages from the investment stand
point, an opinion which the Queensboro
Chamber Of Commerce believes should
be shared by the officers Of every finan-
cial institution"
A special committee Of the Chamber
of Commerce recently entertained q
number of executives OF Lanking ano
leaning institutions Of the city at Q
luncheon and conducted them through
the borough on an inspection tour te
witness the building opportunities wnicf
exist in Queens. On the trip were pres
emf James A. Stenhouse, comptroller OF
the Bowery Savings Bank; John )
Daily, comptroller of the Emigrant In
dustrial Savings Bank: p. A Benson
secretary of the Dime Savings Bank OF
Brooklyn. and Taurus E. Sutton. comp
troller of the Brooklyn Savings Bank.

VILLAGE OF QUEENS
HAS RAPID GROWTH
Demand for Private Houses Is
Large-Bank Plans to
Open Branch.
BY GRANVILLE H. nooME.

Secretury, BulkIey q Horton Compamy.
The growth of the village of Queens
has been phenomenal and to-day there
Is great demand for private dwellings.
statistics show that in Queens county
the number of houses built since Janu-
ary exceeds those of Manhattan, Mas
sau. Kings and Richmond combined. In
n,ost instances houses have been sold
before completion.
Adjoining the Vandegaw Farm in
Queens village on the west the Cohasset
Realty Company developed the property
known as the Vogel Farm. a subdivision
comprising some 400 lots. on which there
have been erected and are in the course
of construction about 100 houses. The
transit facilities in Queens are excel
lent In addition to the Long Island
Railroad and trolley lines bus line
runs from the main station in Jamaica
through Hillside avenue to the county
line. Under the Mayors subway plans it
IS proposed to build subway parallel
ing the Pennsylvania tunnels under the
river to be continued out through,
Queens boulevard as far as Hillside
avenue, then turning east along Hillside
avenue to the county line. 1t will mean
a more tremendous growth along the
route Of that subway.
Queens Village. which has grown
faster than has any other community
in Queens county, has many stores
which are doing thriving business and
several more store properties are in the
course of construction. Queens Village
also contains a national bank and an
other banking institution is to open
branch in 1t soon.
1t is difficult for any indiv' 1ual living
outside OF Queens to realize he growth
of this borough. Week after eek farm
lands have been purchased and sub
divided until very few farm lands are
left in the vicinity.
The Building Bureau reports that up
to October Queens building permits ex-
ceeded theis banner year, 1921.

BY THE ODD PARAGRAPHER,

A IRPLANES are now being used to
N transport prospective buyers to
a SUBJ division in Los Angeles,
Cal. The plan, while interesting. un-
doubtedly is too costly for general adop-
tion through the West and the East is
too crowded--at least that excuse will do
as well as any other for brokers in and
around New York.
This airplane route reflects the pro-
gressive spirit of the West and again
calls attention to the marked advance
ment in transportation and the willing
ness of real estate men to utilize every
available means to speed up selling and
construction work Lots have been sold
successfully with the aid of motion pic
lures. Perhaps the next step will be
a lot auction by radio. Joseph p. Day
