j. S. ARCHITECTURE
LEADS, SAYS BEERS
American Institute Official
Prophesies Better Class
Building in 1929.

The architecture of America is today
leading the world, according to William
Harmon Beers. chairman of the COM
mittee on public information, Ameri-
can Institute of Architects.
More better class building will go
on in the United States in 1929 than
in any previous year, Mr.. Beers proph-
estes. while warning that architects
should not be too much impressed by
optimistic forecasts of increased build
ing operations. He foresees stabiliza-
ton in construction and advances in
design.
More Caution Shown.
"Tiere is a growing improvement In
quality of design and construction, and
architects are showing more caution in
studying building requirements before
beginning projects" he contends.
1--WE have had four years of alb
normal construction activity. Estimates
of increase have included public works
and utilities--roads, bridges, power
plants-which are matter for the engi-
neer rather than the architect. This
type of work has risen from 1894, 900 900
in 1925 to $1.438, 100000 in 1928.
Architectural construction during
these past few years has shown ten
dency toward sterilization. With sta
bilized volume, there have come sta
bilized building conditions. There has
been less speculation in building and
more investment building and build
ing by individual owners.
Judged by the trend of building ma
terials the architectural outlook for
1929 is bright. Contracts amounting to
$597000,000 were awarded in october,
in 81 States, as against $3.50. 100000 in
September Contracts awarded during
the first 10 months of 1928 showed
gain of 6.8 per cent over the same
period of 1927, and were the highest
on record.

Most of those overcome by smoke were
reached with fire ladders. No one was
seriously hurt.
Mrs. Nellie Ashton, who was kept
from jumping from a third-story Win
dow by the cries of spectators. was
rescued by Patrolman w. M. Palmer,
who went into the burning building and
carried her out after she had collapsed.
The blaze, which started in a sta
tionery store, gained rapid headway
when it spread to laundry, and caused
a gasoline explosion which Jared the
downtown district, and threw burning
embers into the Seneca Hotel and ad-
jacent buildings. A half dozen struc-
lures were ablaze when firemen arrived.

che staff of Boss g. Phelps.
Ben T Webster, president of the
real estate board, opened the initial
session of the division, stating that the
creation of this division, under au-
thority of an amendment to the by
laws of the board recently adopted,
would give members of the board in
terested in brokerage business an OPP
portunity to concentrate their efforts
in developing board activities particu-
larly helpful to brokers.
Following a brief business session, the
chairman was authorized to appoint al
committee of five to act as an advisory
committee to plan activities for the
division.
With organization Of the brokers' divi-
sion, Mr. Webster pointed out, the
board had consummated the re-organ-
ization provided for in the amendment
to the bylaws. The two other sections,
the mortgage and finance division and
the property management division, per-
fected their organization in the past
two weeks. Organization of these divi-
sons, Mr.. Webster said would make
possible practical division of the work
OF the board into three major branches,
covering activities of rental offices,
mortgage loan brokers and brokerage
sales.
