REALTY BOARD.
/ ENLARGES

The Washington Real Estate
Board has enlarged its offices and
now has a considerable, suite OF
rooms at 1417TK st. N. w
Because Of the growth Of the
board 1t has become necessary to
take over two additional rooms to
the suite already occupied and the
office layout has been entirely re.
organized to bring about a more
efficient service to the members.
One of the largest OF the new
rooms has been entirely devoted to
matters Of information. In these
rooms have been placed three large
coming maps each five by six feet
in dimension. dealing with height
area and use, respectively. These
maps have ben prepared by an ex.
pert who has indicated in colors
the various kinds Of coming and
use to which property can be put,
each color representing a different
character Of use or coming so that
at glance not only the particular
property in question can be ascer.
tanned but all the surrounding prop
ert as well.
The board has engaged a service
to keep these maps up to date and
any change In coming made by the
zoning commission win be desig.
mated Immediately and indicated on
these zoning maps. The maps are
attractively framed and are avail.

Enid MORTGAGE
MAY BE SAFE

The second mortgage is not a
poor imitation OF a first mortgage.
It is not q mark Of financial incom.
patience and distress. Secondary
financing can be conservative and
safe just as primary financing can
be conservative and safe.
These are some of the principal
points given a leading position in
the Annals Of Real Estate practice
for 1926. a nine volume publication
of the years contribution to real
estate method and thoughts issued
periodically by the National Associa.
ton of Real Estate Boards. A fore,
word to the article calls attention
to the fact that more and more it
IS becoming realized that the second
mortgage plays an, important part
IN the economies Of real estate own
Robert B. Beach, executive
vice president Of the Republic
Realty Mortgage Corporation ct
Chicago Is author of the article.

Is essentially different from that Of

HELD BEST

"The safety of our families is, to
a large measure, in the, hands of
our building officials. To them is
entrusted the task Of reviewing and
passing upon the designs for struc.
lures which will house our families
and our businesses. They must
make sure that the structure has
sufficient strength to carry the load,
during, as well as after, construc.
ton, and must see that reasonable
precautions against fire are exer-
cised," explains j. s. ElwelI, head
OF the construction department of
the National Lime Association, in
discussing the part played by the
strength Of masonry as applied in
modern building operations.
Duty Of Officials
Mr.. Elwell considers the duty Of
city building officials, that IL the
men who pass officially upon con-
struction plans and who see that
the building code is compiled with,
a more responsible one than Is as
sumed by the actual builder. He
points out that these buildings off.
Gals have right to permit eco.
nomical construction, and should do
so, but that they must see that the
structures coming under their super.
vision are safe and are as fireproof
as modern construction methods
can make them.
Mortar enters into every type of
construction to a greater or lessor
degree, and is as important as the
structural steel. the stone or the
brick" continues Mr.. EIwell. Nor.
tar may be used only in foundation
walls, or in curtain walls that carry
little, II any, load, or it may be the
tie that binds the whole frame of
the structure together. Consequently
masonry strength is vital.
Mortars Of various kinds can he
had by the builder. Many are com.
paratively new, while the streneth
and durability OF some are owes.
toned. Lime mortar Is thA ana
mortar that has been used for cen.
turtles IN all types Of masonry work
ana It's strength and durability have
been established by the test of time.
Its lire resistance has been tested
and found satisfactory; it's strength
Is more. than sufficient for all or.
binary loads. and its economy In
apparent
Increases Strength
Where high and concentrated
loads are encountered, cement may
be added to lime mortar. Such
practice will increase the strength
Of the mortar. although it also in
creases both the labor and material
costs. Mortar should be used lust
as steel, concrete, wood, or as other
structural materials are used. In
other words, It should be specified
with due regard to the load which
1t must carry. There is no more.
reason to use built.up steel bridge
order in bungalow where a ,yo-v.
four would carry the load than
there is to specify a rich cement
mortar In one-story building or
In q curtain wall, for in both cases
strength would be wasted and zee.
nomy sacrificed.
Recent tests made show that
lime mortar not only has sufficient
strength to more than carry the
load imposed upon it, but that it's
strength increases with it's age.
Building officials and building in.
spectors know the value of lime
mortar. and inquiry will show that
In most cases they consider it not
only suitable, but most economical"
