London, Sept, 10th. The Westminster

Of exceptional weather conditions, late
ness of the season and the heavy loss OF
life which has occurred in recent attempts
to fly the ATLANTIC, it is definitely of the
opinion that, such attempts this year
should cease, The Westminster Gazette
wishes Captain Courtney TO understand
that so far as this newspaper is concern
ed, he should consider himself tree from
any obligations to continue. The Anglo
American Oil Company and the Napier

EXPANSION IS SEEN

fIuence of Improvements
on Realty Values.

Speaking at the monthly dinner
meeting Of the Alexandria Arlington
Fairfax Real Estate Board, held at
the George Mason Hotel, in Alexan-
dria, Ruby Lee Minar, member Of the
board, stressed the great influence
that public Improvements exert on
real estate values.
Mrs. ATinar declared that northern
Virginia now Is entering period OF
expansion similar to that which took
place in the vicinity OF Chevy Chase
after the building Of the Connecticut
Avenue Bridge.
Analyzing the results of such I'M
movements in communication, the
sneaker said the building of the Fran
els Scott Key Bridge had greatly ac~
celerated the development OF Airing
ton and Fairfax counties, and that the
completion Of the magnificent new
Arlington Memorial Bridge, which VIII
cost approximately three times as
much as the Key Bridge, will bring a
stiu greater acceleration in the devel-
onnent of northern Virginia.
Mrs. Minar also pointed to the value
of improved highways now being
planned for northern Virginia by the

and the local county governments

Construction costs continue to hold

at any time last year.
Neither the average or wages nor

to statistics compiled by the Asso'

April was the third successive
month to pass without change IN

The level held by construction costs
last month was above the mark reg
istered for April. 1926. A scale which
places the 1913 average at 100 as Its
basis shows that costs last month
occupied the POI level. The highest
plane reached last year was 199,
touched in May.
April figures for recent years are:
1924, 201: 1925, 900; 1926, 1913.
The average of prices commanded
