MORE ASSOCIATE
REALTORS AIMED
Divisional Meeting Entertains
Large Number of UnaffiI-
lated Statesmen.

An increase in the membership of the
associate division of the Washington
Real Estate Board was urged at a meet
ing of that body this week by Horace
Browning, chairman. A large number
OF real estate statesmen not affiliated
with the division were guests of the
members at the session.
After outlining the purpose and scope
OF the work OF the division Mr.. Brown
ing declared that membership in the
organization gives to real estate sales
men an opportunity to broaden their
knowledge and therefore to increase
their efficiency. This is accomplished,
he pointed out, through hearing in
structiVe lectures at meetings from
active realtors and in taking part in
discussions pertaining to their work
Chairman Browning stressed the i'm
portance of statesmen establishing them
selves permanently and zealously I'M
dertaking to develop the broad vision
and competence that comes from con-
slant study and training. Failure was
predicted for those in the real estate
business who are not concentrating their
efforts with definite view of the future
of the business.
Mr.. Browning suggested a change of
vocation for those who are not qualified
and do not possess the fundamental
character and ability necessary to sue
cess in rendering modern real estate
service.
A buffet supper was served following
the formal part of the meeting. The
meeting was arranged by Chairman
Browning, Vice Chairman George F..
Clendaniel and Secretary John F. Web
Ster.

EXCLUSIVE LISTING
WILL Be STUDIED
Special Meeting of Property
Management Division of
Realty Board Set.

A suggestion that the exclusive list
ing plan, now largely followed in real
estate sales work, be developed in the
rental field will be studied by special
committee of the property management
division of the Washington Real Estate
Board, under authority given at meet
ing Of the division held Thursday at
the Ambassador Hotel, Earl E. GosS,
chairman, announced today.
The matter will be studied by spe-
cial group consisting of George r. Lin
kins, chairman; Frank Bell and Russell
King, which will report its findings to
the division.
While the practice of operating on
an exclusive listing plan In the sale of
real estate has grown to large proper
tons in recent years, this principle has
not been widely employed in the rental
field, except in connection with services
of agents to regular customers.
1t was pointed out that the maxi
mum of service could be rendered prop
erty owners by the concentration of an
exclusive agent who would be charged
solely with the responsibility OF man
agement problems.
The division, in a spirit OF co-opera-
ton, authorized the appointment OF a
special rental arbitration committee to
adjust informally the minor differences

REALTY ADVERTISING
BEING IMPROVED
Sales Managers Section of Real
Estate Board Told Changes of
Last Few Months.
special pispatch to The st.r.

A distinct improvement in the char
acter and tone of real estate advertis-
ing has been noted during the last few
months, Milton F. Schwab, chairman
OF a committee on advertising, told
members Of the sales managers section
Of the Washington Real Estate Board
at their meeting at luncheon Thursday
at the Hamilton Hotel.
Declaring that through the efforts of
the committee splendid cooperation
had been obtained from active members
in respect to real estate advertising, Mr..
Schwab said that tendencies toward
the use of superlatives and other un-
favorable forms of advertising were be-
ing eliminated gradually.
j. Wesley Buchanan, chairman of the
section, laid before the body reports of
progress being made by committee
work.
Charles H. Hillegeist, a past chair
man of the section, spoke of the great
benefits that Washington would derive
from the increased Government build
ing program here. He described factors
which indicated that Washington today
enjoys a favorable position, with every
assurance of active business during the
coming year.
Richard D. Stimson. secretary, an
nounced that the section would meet
next Thursday, when Waverly Taylor
president of Waverly Taylor, Inc,
would speak on certain phases of mod
ern home building.

SAYS j. S. MONEY
GOES TO BUSINESS
Gen. Marshall Declares
Funds Used for Speculation
Turn to Investment Field.

Speculation money is flowing back
into investment channels in many parts
Of the country and stimulating the de-
mand. particularly for residential con-
struction," Brig. Gen. r. G. Marshall,
jr., Chicago, wartime chief of the con-
struction division of the Army, declared
this week at the business conference
held at the instance of President Hoo
yer, the Department of Commerce and
the Chamber of Commerce of the
United States.
THE volume of construction to be
recorded for this year will be virtually
the same as for 1929" said Gen. Mar
shall, who for eight years was general
manager of the Associated General
Contractors of America, and who rep
resented that body at the conference.
Were it not for the amount of work
held over from last year, however, he
marked decrease in construction opera
tons. In support of this contention he
cited statistics indicating the volume of
contracts awarded during the elapsed
portion of 1929 to be 18 per cent smaller
than the corresponding total of last
year. This decrease was largely caused,
he stated, by withdrawal generally
credited to stock speculation, of money
that otherwise would have been eX-
pended in construction.
Shortage of housing reported in sew
eral localities, combined with the stimu-
lating effects of the Presidents confer
ence, now appear to insure an increased
program for all branches of the con-
struction industry next year, he said.

BUILDING
OPERATIONS SLUMP
November Record of ST ,040,-
800 Permits Only Seventh
of Months in 1923.

Private building operations in Wash
ington approved during November have
a total estimated cost Of $1,040, 800. a
heavy slump from the total for Novem-
Der of last year when an unusual squirt
in construction was made over preced-
ing months of that year, 1t is revealed
in the official report of Col. John W.
Oehmann, building inspector, made
public this week
The past months total amounted TO
approximately one-seventh of the figure
for November, 1928, when the total was
$780, 800. Tight money conditions
that have prevailed this year, especially
during and since the break in stock
market quotations, are held primarily
responsible for the slackening OF new
construction here.
The November total brings the aggre-
gate of private construction in the Dis
trict during the first IL months of this
year to $33,778, 435, as compared with a
total of $43,467,4 50 for the IL months
of last year.
Plans for 81 dwellings having a total
cost estimated at $525, 800 and for five
apartment buildings having total cost
of $57,500 were approved last month.
Permits were issued as follows:

MODERN EASEMENTS
BEING BUILT FOR USE
Becomes a Comfortable Room Now
Instead of a Dark and I'm
pleasant Place.

Even the family dog hated the old
style basement. And for good cause;
because below stairs" was dark, dank
and generally unpleasant, a place fit
only for the furnace, garden tools, coll
lections of old magazines and papers
and piles Of odds and ends which
should have been promptly eliminated.
Nowadays the basement is benef1ting
by the basic idea of modernism, which
is, reduced to its simplest terms, util-
lty. The modern builder has little pa
thence with useless, inefficient or waste
space. The modern idea is-if it doesn't
serve or cannot be made to serve a
definite purpose, decorative or utilitar-
ian-junk it.
So the modern basement is made as
livable. comfortable and useful as any
other part of the house. Modern heat
ing plants are clean and, in some cases.
positively good looking. And modern
construction has made it easily possible
to have basement that is dry, warm,
healthful and easily useful as a recrea-
ton room for adults as we'll as for the
youngsters, or a study or music room
or for any other purpose which may
appeal to the family.
The fundamental factors to be con-
sidered in building a modern, useful
basement are these: First, adequate ex-
terror drainage to relieve all but nor
NAL moisture from the outside of the
basement wall: second, moisture-proof
wall construction, and, third, moisture
proof basement floors.
