BROKER OPTIMISTIC
OF REALTY SITUATION
John L. Weaver Sees Steady and
Sound Growth in Washing
ton Field.

John L. Weaver, president of weaver
Bros. Inc, one of the Oldest real estate
brokerage houses in Washington, gave
an extremely optimistic view of the
realty situation here
Washington has attractions for the
home seeker, rich or poor, young or
old. which are unequaled anywhere else
in the United States. he declared. Prop
erty here, he asserted, has sound in
vestment value because of the steady
growth of population and the conse-
quent increase in land values. This
growth has been consistent for more
than half a century and is in direct
ratio with that of the Nation, he con-
tinued.
In addition Mr.. Weaver thinks, there
is wage earning class here of the
highest character, receiving wages that
are among the highest in the country.
He pointed out that this group is not
subject to interruption of employment
by strikes, lockouts, and similar troubles
prevalent in other cities.

the projects and work will be started
on others in the near future.
Tell of Air Rights.
I'VE look forward with more than
usual interest to the paper to be given
by Mr.. Strong" said Paul Robertson OF
Indianapolis, presidens of he national
association. The association has
watched the development .omewhat
from the inside, in view Of the fact that
the Chicago Daily News submitted its
plans for analysis to the building plan
ming service of the national association,
so that some of the foremost experts
within our ranks were early able to
place their stamp OF approval upon this
pioneering development.
Albright development in Chicago is
of extraordinary interest because it
means the complete breaking Of the
confines of the Loop district, thereby
giving to the city the greatest area tor
the concentration Of business Of any
American city. New YorS'5 air right
was along entirely differ
ent lines. since it resulted in the crea-
ton Of an entirely new business district.
Chicago'S development, on the other
hand, will result in putting a rim
around the Loop district of many new
buildings of the finest type In architec-
ture and convenience.
The construction of the Chicago
Daily News Building which is practi-
cally completed, has involved many Pc
culiar problems of law and engin eering
The linking Of the building to the Chi
cago and Northwestern Terminal by a
pedestrian bridge to facilitate the daily
comings and goingS of nearly 100000
people; the zoning Of the building as a
plant for a single tenant
using eight entire floors and as an ONCE
building above makes 1t unique in the
history of office-buildins construction.
For these reasons we are eager to hear
the details OF the development from
Mr. Strong. who not only conceived the
idea, but has actually put 1t into execu-
ton, thereby blazing q trail which will
lead to greater Chicago"

Mechanical ventilation of buildings is
the first weapon in the prevention ana
fighting of fires, according to the teStl-
mony Of fire experts closely identified
with the National Association Of Fire
Chiefs
Modern skyscrapers, department
stores, theaters, public schools and sport
arenas with up-to-date air conditioning
systems are less formidable FIRE hazards
than other buildings without systems
of positive ventilation. fire officials in
leading American cities have discov-
cred, This is true because the proba-
bility of q flre is thus reduced, and II
q fire does start firemen can stop 1t
more quickly 1t is pointed out. The
same principle applies in reducing the
danger of explosions in various types OF
buildings whether due to dust or in
flammable materials, firemen assert.
Chief Fred Myers Of the Toledo Fire
Department, for example, declares that
controlled ventilation Of buildings Is the
best insurance against spontaneous
combustion, which causes many fires,
due to the fact that all parts Of the
building are properly "aerated" by an
adequate and correctly installed me-
chanical system.
Gives Firemen Chance.
ITO the average person. ventilating
a building may appear as the wrong
procedure, as 1t gives the fire fresh
air that permits 1t to burn more bright
ly," Chief Myers said. This is the
thing to be desired, as 1t gives the fire-
man a chance to enter the building and
fight the fire at short range, where the
streams will do the most good"
Assistant Fire Chief Homer j. Jones
Of the Canton Fire Department. VINO
has made an extensive study Of the
subject. says the object OF ventilation
is two-fold
First" he said, cit allows the smoke,
heat, fumes and gases (products Of
combustion) which are lighter than air,
to escape into the atmosphere. This
prevents these elements to mushroom
along the ceiling, thereby causing the
fire to spread through the building.
Second, 1t eliminates the danger of
backdraft' or hot air explosions. Due
to the fact these elements are lighter
than air they build up enormously at

less ventilation is provided terrlf1c ex-
plosion may result, with fatal results to
firemen stationed in doors or at win

Ventilation Lets Out Gases.
Chief Jones points out that it Is be-
cause of the need for air and more ven
tilation to let out gases and fumes that
firemen frequently are seen breaking
windows and doors.
"a good example of the action OF
ventilation on fires is bad rubbish f1re
in a basement" he said. Assume
there is a good directly overhead t.
