ADVICE ON REALTY
!. LAWS TO Be ASKED
Leaders invited to Give
Views in Hope of Limiting
Work of Blaine Group.

Washington business leaders yester-
day were invited by Oscar H. Brink
man, attorney for the Blaine Subcon-
mittee, to participate in a conference
which, 1t was believed, may result In a
considerable curtailment Of the scope of
the subcommittees investigation Of
local real estate and mortgage securities
situation.
The local business men were invited
TO the conference, Brinkman said, to
work out their own program of legis-
lation covering the licensing of real
estate operators. the foreclosure of
mortgages and the sale Of securities in
the District. The conference has been
called for November Is.
Brinkman, on behalf of Senator
Blaine's subcommittee, has been con-
Quoting an exhaustive inquiry into the
local real estate and securities Geld, and
Il scheduled to report back to the COM
mittee on December &.
The investigation has disclosed con-
ditions which. according to Brinkman.
Brinkman's hope, he said, Is that vol
untary action on the part Of the citi-
sens drawing up and requesting legis-
lation viii preclude the necessity Of .
widespread public investigation.
1T would be particularly unfortu-
nate II the subcommittee should be
obliged to hold a public investigation
Of the local situation at this time"
Brinkman said
Although there Is no doubt that the
great majority of Washington business
men dealing In real estate and mortgage
securities are honest and fair, the pub
lie distrust which would be created by
a widespread investigation would be
very harmful to all at this time. In
view Of the prevailing business depres-
sion and the unfortunate developments
which might arise out of a public In
vestigation, am in favor Of securing,
II possible, the desired legislation with
out holding a detailed inquiry before
the Senate subcommittee"
Brinkman said, however, that as q
result of his investigation he was con-
vinced that q conservative estimate"
of the yearly loss in Washington to
women alone from fraudulent real
estate and security transactions would
be half a million dollars, and that
