L0NG-TERM LEASES
HELD AS Benefit
E. H. Mcintosh Says They
Are Very Useful in Growing
Community.
NOT DEVIOUS CONTRACT
Regarded as ANY Other Agree
ment, But Usually Is More
Carefully Drawn.
NOT DEVIOUS CONTRACT

Advantages of long-term leases are
described by Z. H. Mcintosh. well
known to local realtors in his capac-
ity as president of the Cleveland teal
Estate Board. in statement r",ently
prepared by him for publication.
Realtors should accept every op-
portunity to eradicate from the minds
of people the belief that long-term
leases are devious and mysterious
transactions, because they can be
made so very useful in many ways in
any growing community" he explains.
There ins nothing really mysterious
about them: they need more provi-
sions than the short-term lease on
account of the length of time provided
for. and are usually more carefully
drawn also on that account. but the
nature of the contract is the same, and
if the public could be brought to use
long-term leases as freely as snort
term ones it would be very beneficial
to every city.
Brought Here by Lord Baltimore.
Lord Baltimore is responsible for
bringing the lease to this country,
and il is understood that it was q
to America. lease for ninety-nlne
years. Leases for ninety-nlne years
were a custom in England started py
some one and carried along through
the feudal days of merry England.
The lease is development of the land
laws of England. but the word is de.
rived from the French word "lalsser,
which means to leave.
THE custom is based, perhaps, on
the fact that English land held by the
peers of the realm was practically
under lease to them. since they gave
service to the crown and promised
service and allegiance to their SOW
ereign when knighted Their title
and estate remained theirs just so
long as they paid the price.
Leasing is a method by which one
who cannot. or does not desire to, re-
linuuish title to his property may
convey the use of 1t to another. Let
US examine. first, the motives of the
lessor as being less diverse, probably.
than those OF the lessee. OF course,
the motive most commonly found is
the desire for safe investment. There
is a constantly increasing number of
persons in large cities who aim to
leave as part of their estates land
under long-term leases. There are
also heirs to estates who may be un-
able to reach an agreement on sale,
but can agree on a lease. There is
the owner who wishes to retain his
ownership in certain land for some
sentimental reasons: and it Will some
times happen that land which cannot
be sold readily can be leased and sold
later.
Care In Preparation rEed.
THE termination of the lease should
be carefully considered in the nego-

Finance and Trade Conditions
Viewed By Roger W. Babson-


WELLESLEY HILLS. Mass. August
26.-People are not so much inter-
ested in the temporary settlement OF
the coal strike and the railroad
strike as in developing plans so that
they will not periodically reoccur. 1t
is not enough to know that we shall
have coal this winter or that railway
traffic is not now suspended. If the
people of this country are to be
healthy, happy and prosperous we
must know that some plan is being
evolved to prevent these strikes from
recurring. In view of these facts,
Roger w. Babson was this week ask
labor developments. His diagnosis OF
the strike situation follows:
When in Washington during the
war. assisting the Secretary of Labor.
it was evident that the students OF
labor problems were divided into two
distinct groups. One group believes
in compulsory arbitration as illus
trated by the Kansas Industrial court
and the other group stands purely
for conciliation without any compul-
sion. Conservatives and radicals can
be found in both groups. Investiga-
tion leads me to believe that there
is field for both of these lines OF
work. Labor disputes in connection
with general industries. such as the
textile industry. the boot and shoe
industry, and possibly the steel in
dustry, should be kept on a con-
ciliation basis. 1t surely would be a
mistake to attempt compulsory arbi-
