TITLE EXAMINATION
GAINS IMPORTANCE
Y. M. c. A. Realty Class Told
Effects of Population on
Land Transfers.

Title examination in connection
with the transfer and ownership of
land developed with the increase in
population and the growth of other
economic factors, according to James
j. Becker. local title official, in dis
cussing the subject before the real
estate class at the Y. NJ. c. A. this
week.
In the early history OF the nation
purchasers of real estate were sat
istied to simply accept a deed. as in
most every case the owner occupied
the land and was known and recog-
nized as the bona fide owner How
ever, as land values increased and as
evidences of title multiplied. pur-
chasers required more formal assur-
anee of title security. From this sit
uatIon the modern title company was
evolved.
An examination Of title as conduct
ed by title company simply deter
mines the status of the owners title
Vertffcatton of the abstract or chain
of instruments through which title
passes from one owner to another
special items such as equity actions,
probate court causes, taxes, etc, are
also examined as they may directly
affect legal ownership.
knowledge OF Law Needed.
The preparation of deeds and mort
cages is vital in considering the uues-
tion of title to land and a thorough
knowledge of the law in this connec-
tion is necessary, 1t was pointed out
by Mr.. Becker, to insure accurate
compliance with all legal require
ments when preparing such 6ocu-
ments. AS a general proposition of
law, the transfer and acquisition of
title to real estate is governed by
the law prevailing in the place where
the real estate is situated.
In the preparation of deeds, Mr.
Becker stated, it is essential to know
that the grantor possesses the right
to sell and convey, and that the
phraseology of the deed be such as
would actually convey to the grantee
Accurate descriptions of the property
conveyed must be incorporated in the
deed and all requirements as to sig
natures and Acknowledgements must
be complied with. Sometimes an ap-
parent slight oversight in failure to
comply with some of the technical re-
Quirement has a rather serious effect
on the title which may subsequently
involve considerable time and ex-
pense to clear UP.
The subject of taxation will be dis
cussed before the class at its next
by B. F. Adams, local realtor.

Bankers Behind
MoUe to Promote
Buying OF Homes

The Investment Bankers Asso-
citation of America has lined up
behind a movement to promote
home buying and home building.
The financiers have as their i'm
mediate objective the conserva-
tion of the savings of small wage
earners and the ultimate invest
ment Of such savings in homes
and other property or in securi-
ties of inherent soundness.
Leaders of the association are
practically unanimous in the view
that the banking and business fra
ternity must begin making war
on the fake stock promoters. If
the worthless stock statesmen are
curbed they assert. nearly $1,000
100000 will be saved to the people
for investment in homes or other
judicious ways.
John A. Prescott, widely known
investment banker of Kansas City.
and retiring president of the asso-
citation, reflected the view of his
fellow members when he said:
Our best citizenship rests upon
home ownership. Investment bank
ers are looking to the future. We
want to see the habit OF thrift
more universally observed"
The bankers. with keen guage
on the financial pulse, generally
advise prospective home owners
to go out and build or buy. They
give a world of caution against

WINTER BUILDING
DECLARED CHEAPER
Costs Found to Be Pared Be-
cause of DuIIness
of Season.

There are hundreds of houses built
in the spring and summer to one
that goes up in the winter. Yet it is
often possible to build-for less in
winter than during the summer build
Ing season. The Architects Small
House Service Bureau tells OF a man
who saved between $1,000 and $1,000
by building in winter when the sea-
sonai rush was over.
The origial intention was to have
the house started in the spring and
rush the work so as to be finished by
early summer In the previous fall
the owner had an offer of a saving
of $400 on mill work If he would ac-
cept delivery of material in Decem-
ling to take 5000 off the price of
rough lumber if 1t could be delivered
in winter. While this was a fiat saw
ing of 5000, even greater saving was
due OF the fact that carpenters. ma
sons, plasterers and painters were
willing to shave their prices for win
ter work.
The footings and foundations were
put in about the first, Of November. SO
they were ir place before frost and
the framing was rushed, as 1t was
necessary to get the house shut in be-
fore the bitter cold began. Storm
windows were nailed on as soon as
POSSIBLE to make all snug inside.
The heating plant was put in while
the frame work was going up, and
heat started as soon as 1t was time
to begin plastering, and the house
warmed for inside work. 1t took
four tons Of soft coal to keep the
house warm, but that was more than
offset by the saving in labor.
No difficulty was experienced in
getting workmen, and the average
pay ran about 80 cents less an hour
than summer prices. During the
slack season workmen hunt up Jobs.
Here are some OF the other items
on which savings were made: There
was bid on the plastering, for sum-
mer. for s270, but it was done in Win
ter for $40, and the labor saving on
lathing for three floors and basement
ceiling amounted to S34.
1t must be understood, however,
that there was no effort to rush the
winter building. The owner was
convinced by his personal experience
that the. man who is willing to pro-
ceed slowly. to watch markets, ma
terials and labor, and who will let his
workmen take their own time. can
certainly make a worth while saving
by building in winter.

Licensing of Real Estate Men
S1io,vs Gains IN Popularity

commissioners numbered 10000 in the
twelve states where records Of this
matter were kept. All these were
investigated and adjusted under su-
pervision of a disinterested repre-
sentative of the state.
Settlements effected through real
estate commissions in nine states
keeping such records have resulted
In refunds of over 100000. In ad-
dition, California, which, keeps no
actual totals, reports that several
hundred thousand dollars have been
refunded, and states keeping no rec
ords would probably show similar
average amounts.
Laws Self-Susa aiming.
Real estate license laws. without
exception, have been seIf-sustaining.
In addition, in seven states they have
turned into the general state treas
ury funds totaling $4,000. However,
In some states commissioners have
found themselves seriously handicap
ped by being limited to a definite
amount of expenditures. instead of
being allowed TO operate their de-
partment on its own returns.
When there has been criticism of
the law II has arisen from the fact
that commissioners were unable to
administer it properly because of lack
of funds.
Real estate commissioners in twelve
states report that the people OF the
state as whole are interested in the
law and its enforcement. In every in
stance reliable real estate dealers re-
port that the business has received
wider recognition as result of the
passage OF the, law.
Fifteen states and one Canadian
province have so far set up ma
chinery designed to put license safe
guards on real estate dealing. The
sixteenth state, Oklahoma. has a Ii
