result Dave Crockett, Gimp Shipman,
Davis and Stumpy Parker took turns

Crockett, regular Shortstop, proved
himself quite versatile when he pitched,
played first base, center field, third base
and caught.
But all the shifting in the world
couldn't win the game for Judd 81
Detweiler. for a little pitcher, Lester
Robey, throwing a curve almost con-
tinually, held the Printers down, while
his mates mauled the offerings Of

JANUARY BUILDING
EXCEEDS DECEMBER
Month, Usually Falling Behind,
Shows Increase for Period
Of 2 Per Cent.

For the first time in nine years, the
January total of building and engineer
ing contracts exceeded the total of the
preceding December, according to F. w.
Dodge Corporation. Last Months in
crease over the iYnme diately preceding
month was onl" per cent, but January
normally falls behind December and has
done so consistently even in the biggest
boom years, such declines having ranged
anywhere from 5 to 20 per cent. In
January, 1921. the contract increase
over December, 1920, marked the turn
ing point from prolonged building re-
ceSSion; this January's contract record
may likewise mark the turning point of
the current recession. In addition to
the 2 per cent increase in contracts,
January had the highest recorded vol
urae of contemplated new construction.
Building and engineering contracts
let last month in the 81 States East of
the Rocky Mountains amounted to
1923 ,e75, 200. In addition to the per
cent increase over December in dollar
volume, there was 4 per cent increase
In number of projects reported. The
months contract-volume in dollars was
81 per cent behind that of January
1929. Among the important classes Of
in January were: $112,065. 200. or IS pei
cent Of all construction, for public
works and utilities; $66, 631 300, or q
per cent, for residential buildings

cial buildings; $3S,266,20o, or IL pei
cent, for industrial buildings; anC

tional buildings.
Contemplated new work reported II
the 81 States during January amounted
to 81. ASS, 349, 800, by far the largest tota
of newly planned work recorded for an,
single month.
These contemplated projects repre-
scented a 60 per cent increase over tn
amount reported in December, 1929, AM
a 70 per cent increase over the amour
reported, in January. 1929. Out of thi
enormous total $808, 211 400 consisted o
plans for public works and utilities pro

There is a slight improvement in the
situation in New England and a con-
siderable optimistic attitude has de-
veloped in that section regarding the
immediate future of the mortgage
money market. No favorable change
has been noted in the situation in tive
districts surrounding Chicago, Detroit,
Pittsburgh and Indianapolis. This also
applies to certain spotty conditions in
the South, including Atlanta, where
sufficient funds have not been received
to enable them to enter the mortgage
market in noticeable manner.
The Baltimore district in the past
few days has shown considerable i'm

Increase of Funds.
"It is with special interest that we
are watching building and loan asso-
they play such a large part in home
construction and renovating finance
The increasing supply of funds flowing
into these channels at this time, par
ticularly in the Eastern district, is 8
most interesting reflection. The Rail
road Cooperative Building and Loan
Association, with assets of $4,000, 600
has just made seven building loans
which are the first group they have
made since october %.
THE general tendency seems to b
to pay courteous attention to applica
tons which represent real value ant
for loans involving betterments ant
renovation to property. Careful ex
animation of data would indicate tina
the better class of people seeking mort
gage loans are active at this time ant
will benefit by filing applications 81
that their cases may receive considera
ton as surplus funds come into tn
mortgage market"
It was the sense of industrialist
meeting with President Hoover afte
the stock market recession, as we'll
of the National Business Survey Con

Struction, repairs, requirements, etc
would serve as one of the most impor

The convention, according to an an
nouncement from the executive officers,
also took the following actions:
Brought out the way in which tax
increases, inevitable with the expan-
sion Of governmental activity, are now
increasing upon real estate in heavier
proportion than the general increase.
Announced the formation of a joint
committee to represent number of ma
tional associations which are interested
in the projection of real estate invest
ment values, through which committee
it is hoped a national program may
be formulated to unity the present
recognized strong movement toward tax
modernization. On this joint commit
tee there will be represented the Ma
tional Association of Real Estate
Boards, the Mortgage Bankers Associa-
ton of America, the National AsSocia-
ton of Building Owners and Managers
and the United States League of Local
Building and Loan Associations.
Reduced the dues of the newly
association to the nominal sum Of 81
per year in order that the division
may represent property owners in the
widest possible manner. The action Is
in preparation for strong advance
drawing property owners into co-opera-
ton with real estate boards in the
movement toward a modernization OF

equitable situation for real estate in

 Seymour yesterday telegraph ed his resignation to Senator Steiwer who insisted he was absolutely innocent of any wrong act" iii connection with the Nebraska primary controver- sy and that he was acting sole ly then, and now, from a desire to keep publicity from attending committee hearings and Senator Nye of Nebraska from reflecting on the party's and senatorial committee.
