REALTY FIELD

The transfer of the former Stilson
Hutchins' estate, at the southwest
corner Of Fourteenth and G streets,
to Julius Garfinckel this week has
confirmed what those prominent In
the realty field felt would be the
ultimate disposition of the property.
The sale of the former Charles &.
Glover holdings on the east side of
Sixteenth street, MOTH of Rock Creek

for 81 $50, 900 is considered one of the
outstanding transa actions of unim.

Two methods were adopted COM

layers of subway tubes that criss-
