Standard Forms Backed
BY State Conference

A uniform standard appraisal sys-
tenn for the valuation of real es.
tate, formulated by the California
Real Estate Association, was ap-
proved by a Statewide special APP
praisal conference held under the
auspices OF the association at Pasa.
dena. June 30.
The conference. In which city and
county officials. school board Off
GERS. bankers, inheritance appraisers
and others interested in real estate
appraisals were invited TO partici.
pate. urged the adoption of the xys-
tenn by all local real estate boards,
and recommended its use to banks,
trust companies. municipal authori-
ties, boards of education and the
like.
The standard system, adopted by
the State association at it's last an.
nuai convention, has already heen
put into official use by more than 30
local real estate boards of the State.

BUILDING LOAN
MEN To MEET

Elimination of practices that
imperil prospective home owners in
the construction of new homes is to
he discussed at the 35th annual con-
vention of the United States League
of Local Building and Loan Asso-
Citations to be held in Asheville. July
1922.
PrObab bly, no other agency Is doing
more to discourage the attempt of
Jerry builders" and others of sim.
liar trend. than building and loan
companies which are known as
cooperative banks in some eastern
States and as homestead associations
in the South. BY the Jerry builder"
is meant the contractor who DELHI
eratelv sHmps on material. both az
to quality and quantity, and whose
Workmanship is faulty.
The pitfalls of building will be
pointed out at the convention by G.
Clinton James of Washington. who
will discuss the proposed uniform
mechanics lien law. Mr.. James is
member of the commission appointed
by Secretary of Commerce Hoover
TO draft such laws. To various
mechanics lien laws can probably
be attributed the easy entrance of
noviceS into the building business.
The fact that material men readily
sell material to any builder regard
less of his capacity, knowing that
the preferred status of their claim
probably will insure them against
loss. gives easy credit to practically
all contractors and pseudo builders.
Building and loan associations
throughout the United States want
home owners to get dollar for dol
lar value when investing in resi-
dences of their own. Building
advice Is one of the free services
offered by these institutions to the
people who do business with them.
