in addition to the machinery, which
includes pumps, air compressors, elc-
trical equipment, all of which the
Hope Engineering company is under
contract to build and install, there
will be a cluster of small well built
comfortable homes for the en-
ployees. Water and electricity will
be placed in each of these houses.
Already the residences have been
built at two camps with the parti-
tions left out, so that they may be
used temporarily as bunk houses un-
til they are ready to be occupied by
employees and their families.

Organization.

Temporary organization OF the
American Construction Council. the
craftsmanship of which Secretary
of Commerce Herbert c. Hoover
has accepted and whose president
will be former Assistant Secretary
of the Navy franklin D. Roosevelt.
has been completed.
The project is for the purpose of
placing the construction industry
upon a high plane of integrity and
efficiency and to correlate the
present organizations through a
conference association representa-
tive of the industry.
Each branch of the industry will
be represented in the organization
and have equal voting power. The
forming of the council has re-
suited from the numerous and diff
ficult problems which have been
besetting the industry since the
cessation Of building activities dur
ing and following the war, it is
said.
Secretary Hoover is said to have
inspired the organizing of the
council and to have declared that
had 1t been in existence before the
present depression it would have
served to hold the confidence Of
the public in the building indus

APPRAISING REAL
ESTATE AN ART
Building Is Only Worth What
1t Makes the Land
Produce.

Fixing the fair and reasonable
value OF real estate does not neces-
sarily mean that the property could
always be marketed at the ap-
praised value" according to an ex-
pert.
while every commodity in the
world has a fair and reasonable
value, 1t is not always readily sal
able at such. and one can see at
glance that it would retard devel-
opment and building and do a great
injustice to the owner. lender and
community if mortgages were only
made on the immediate salabre or
liquidation value of real estate.
However. an appraisal must
necessarily be at a figure which. in
ordinary times. with reasonable
period in which to negotiate a sale,
a willing buyer could be found.
Appraisers are often pressed to
Issue an appraisal in a great hurry
and will be obliged to do so in
many cases, but they should never
be hurried to such an extent that
they are fully convinced that it is
right, for one must never overlook
the fact that after an appraisal is
once signed and sent out it becomes
history and it is practically impos-
sible to withdraw it; and that on
the strength of this appraisal
money may be loaned by trustees
representing widows and infants.
or by trust companies or savings
banks. not only for their own in
vestment, but for estates, so that,
no matter how much an appraiser
IS pressed, unless he Is fully con-
WINGED that he is right. at all costs,
even at the hazard of losing his
client he should hold up the ap-
praisal until he is ready to issue it.
"As to structural value of build
ing, 1ue to war conditions and the
necessary high cost of materials
and labor, this side of appraising
has become most difficult. No mat
ter what a building may have cost,
unless II Is an adequate improve
ment and well planned. it does not
add its cost value to the land. The
inducement for erecting buildings
during the past few years at the
prevailing high costs has been
largely that owners could obtain
high rentals for the space offered.
and in this way write off during a
certain number of years the differ
ence between abnormal and normal
costs.
After all. a building is only
worth what 1t will make the land
produce. and ! find in my apprais-
ing work that in very few In
stances can l give a land valuation
and cost valuation. add the two
together and say that that is the |
fair and reasonable value Of the |
