FULL ADVICE URGED
ON TITLE SERVICE
Carr Thinks Statesmen Should
Tell Home Buyer All
About Certificate.

Real estate brokers and statesmen
should always recommend that pur..
chaserS of homes secure a certificate OF
title from some reliable title company,
Arthur Carr, president of the Washing
ton Real Estate Board, stated today.
This is the Interpretation placed by
the realty board on provision INCLUDED
in the first section Of the code OF ethics
of the organization. adopted in 1921
requiring members Of the board always
to recommend examination OF titles, MT
The statement of the board today
continued:
I'm this connection 1t Is we'll to note
the difference between q certificate OF
title and q continuation Of title. A GER
tifieate of title certifies that the title Is
good of record and the company issuing
same Is liable under such certificate for
any omission of matters Of record. Title
certificates are personal contracts and
are not transferable. Therefore, the
liability for error in a certificate does
not pass on from one owner who holds
such a certificate to any subsequent
owner.
"A continuation of title Is merely
statement of facts pertaining to convey
ance. etc. Of record from certain date
to a certain date, and as such carry nc
assurance or guarantee OF actual good
title. Occasionally they refer to a Ger
tincate Of title previously issued by q
title company to the present or former
owner, and base an opinion on such
certificates, together with the facts con-
tanned in the continuation. However
In such instances no real protection L
given the new purchaser in the event
the original certificate was in error.
Sometimes brokers and statesmen use
the argument of saving the difference in
cost between the two types Of title serv-
ices here discussed. This saving should
not be emphasized unless the purchaser
Is made fully aware of the fundamental
difference between a continuation and a
certificate of title. The family who pur-
chases home. even in cases where the
initial cash payment is small, is entitled
to complete and full advice from the
selling broker. The gradual accumula-
ton of an equity and eventually COM
plete ownership deserves full title pro-
lection, Just as it requires adequate pro-
lection from FIRE"

PRATT OPENS DRIVE
ON PETTY LOOTERS
Thefts From Vacant Proper
ties in District Reported
Increasing.

A drive against vandalism perpe-
trated on vacant properties in the Dis
trict, reported to have showed an In
crease in recent months. has been
started by the Police Department in
co-operation with the Washington Real
Estate Board.
At the request of the realtors, Maj.
Hey G. Pratt, superintendent OF po-
ice, has sent special bulletin order
to members Of the force, stating IN
part:
"You will. therefore give all such
property on your beats special attention,
VISIT Junk dealers daily, check over
property bought by them and solicit
their cooperation in experimenting per-
sons offering for sale equipment or
material from houses. When vacant
houses are found open You will prompt
" notify owner or agents, in order that
same may be secured"
Heating Plant Disma ntled.
THE pawn inspector of the Detective
Bureau will give special attention to
reports of sales of all such material
and advise precinct commanders as to
nature of property. names and descrip-
tions of persons offering same for sale
and such other information as may be
obtained from records
Russell King, chairman of the Prop
erty owners Committee OF the realty
board, gives thu following description
Of the petty HOUSEKEEPING and robbery:
often flush tanks are dismantled by
vandals seeking only the copper lining.
Toilets have been torn up and almost
always damaged in an effort to secure
the lead pipe under the floor. Lead
waste pipes under sinks, lighting flH-
lures and even doors and sash. have
been removed from unoceupisd houses
Stove lifts. shakers. doors and other
parts Of coal ranges have been removed
and occasionally an entire range IS
stolen. In at least one Instance heat
ing plant was dismantled and removed
and in other cases gas ranges, meter
connections. spigots, pipes and various
other metal equipment have been taken
by vandals.
Loss Runs Into Thousands.
"Oftentimes only 8 few pennies can
be realized on the sale If such stolen
property even though it might cost the
property owner $50 to replace the ar
ticle or repair the damage done. One
member of the Real Estate Board re-
ports that during the past year his Office
has spent in excess of $1,000 in re-
placements and repairing made neces-
sary by acts of vandals in properties
coming under his control, most Of which
properties are located in the South
west section of the city. While figures
are not available undoubtedly the loss
to property owners runs into the thou
sands annually.
This problem almost disappeared
during the period when Washington had
a housing shortage and in the prosper
Gus years Immediately following. How
ever within the last year or so there
seems to have been an increase in the
number of instances there vandalism
has occurred. While complaints come
from various sections of the city. IN
most instances the acts are committed
In the lower-priced properties"
