CAPITAL GAINS TAX
OPPOSITION VOICED
Realtors Back Hoover Crit
cism of System Declared
to Block Sales.

Backing up President Hoover's recent
digestion. made before the American
Bankers Association, that the capital
gains tax may be blocking the normal
sale of land and securities. the National
Association of Real Estate Boards cites
instances Of such blocking reported at
the associations headquarters during
the current week by leading realtors
from their own experiences.
IT believe an inquiry might develop
that our system of taxes upon capital
gains directly encourages imitation by
strangling the free movement Of land
and securities" President Hoover said
in dealing with the question Of what
measures can be taken, either in the
business world or in cooperation with
the Government, in development OF
policies which would help to avoid in
flations and depreSsions.

upon real estate, which impedes trans
action, and in many cases prevents the

BALTIMORE. November 8.-With a
loss of 81 ,307 $50 from the correspond
ing month of last year, october was
the lowest month of the current year
in volume of building here, according
to the figures compiled by the Bureau
of Buildings. Building operations last
month, including new construction, adj
ditions and alterations, totaled $l,94l,-
$50. in contrast with $3,249, 240 for Oc-
tober, 1929, and $2,015,952 for Septem-
Der, 1880.
The total valuation of permits for
the 10-month period ended october 81
is $28 $50, loss Of "a, Ass, 248 from
the same period last year, with $33 ,295-

hurt beyond redemption. One
knew inStinctively that this was
the end, just as one was equally
sure that Mandell would arise to
make the last, desperate gesture
Of the beaten fighter. He arose
too soon. The count was only
three when he got to his feet, and
so he was distressing, pitiable
mark for the rush that was to
come.
It wasn't long in coming,
either. the distrait Singer, seeing
Mandell on the floor, went stark
mad for a few moments and If
it wasn't for the tragedy of Man.
dell, the burleSque Of Singer and
Referee Donovan would have been
amusing. Like an end and an
opposing tackle they faced each
other, the referee trying to box
his man into a neutrla corner and
Singer feinting to left and right
in an effort to break through
and go in behind the line for the
tackle.
MandelI finally solved the prob
lem. He got up when he should
have been down and, without fur.
ther parley, Singer was permitted
to rush at him with punches that
beat down upon his haplesS head
until it bowed down under the
burden and Sam went with it.
This time he remained on the
floor for seven seconds, and while
he seemed slightly more aware
of his surroundings, he had moth
ing to offer except the great in.
stinct and heart that had carried
him so far.
He continued to back away
under punishment and for q
spIit-minute, it looked rs
though he might last his way
to the bell, after all. For
Singer was arm-weary. He
had punched himself out and
the round wasn't half over.
Then the new champion proved
himself to be the man his ad-
mirers had claimed him to be.
: He suddenly took himself into
hand, steadied with a palpable
effort and then began punching
grimly, nethodically. The re.
suit was inevitable. Any kind of
a punch would suffice for the
fighter who reeled drunkenly un-
der his own weakness. So he
was dropped for a third time un-
der a rgiht and left. and when
at two, he eSSayed to arise, Eddie
Kane, his manager, seized a
towel to throw in as mute token
of defeat.

'Whirlwind'S withdrawal for
