uous practice in anticipation Of their
game with Dickinson Friday.
Coach Leonard McMahan has been

time drilling his forwards in offensive
and defensive tactics, while Ronald

ing with the backs.
The Mandan mentors lay particu-
lar emphasis on the necessity for pre-
cision and drive in both blocking and
tackling and have put the squad
through intensive training in these de-
partments.
With the exception of one casualty
the Braves came through their game
with Ashley without serious injury
and are expected to go into Fridays

Saunders, who sustained q fractured
collarbone, will be the only man not
able to play.
Coach Frank Richards is expected
to arrive with his Dickinson squad at
noon Friday. Reports from Dickinson
indicate that the Stark county aggre-

church and adding the two amounts.
when he is called in to evaluate a house
Of worship.
1.-THE value Of the church land, is ar
rived at by examining the values Of
other parcels in the neighborhood and
computing value by a process OF COM
parison. The valuation of the church
building Is more Of problem.
What appraisers call the market
comparison method cannot be used in
setting a sale price on church. The
church does not represent typical use
on which the above method is used.
THE appraiser of church property
must study neighborhood trends end
supply and demand which in this
case Is the supply and demand Of a
worshiping public.
Several churches in Gotham, unable
to sustain old houses of worship on land
rapidly rising in value, have sponsored
the construction of apartment buildings
in which they take over one or more
floors and rent the remainder of the
building to fiat dwellers. The revenues
are dispelling some of the financial wor-
ries of these churches. but the new
structures caused appraisers some knit
ting of brows until they worked out the
problem.
Church property is tax exempt, and
tax figures play an important part in
setting the value Of commercial prop
erty. The apartments in the building
are commercial property. The Gotham
churches. also had put in stheir ground
leases rent-free provisions for their own
quarters in the new building, therefore
those particular portions of the build
ings are not income producing.
In such cases, according to r. M.
Babcock of Chicago, the church and
the commercial property should be
treated as two separate problems and
appraised separately by different proc
esses. as is done in appraising other
combination buildings. such as theater
and office building combinations.

COST BEST BASIS
IN SETTING RENTS
Charging "What Traffic Will
Bear" Is Unsound, Owners
Are Told.

Rents should be based upon costs OF
production and costs OF operation--rot
on what the trafflc will bear. This ad-
vice was given this week 10 the SKY
Scraper men" OF the United States and
Canada attending the Seattle Conven-
ton of the National Association OF
Building Owners and Managers by
Charles w. Smith of San Francisco.
The only sound basis for rental
charges is that of cost" said Mr.. Smith,
who was formerly secretary Of the San
Francisco Association of Building Own
ers and Managers.
The first cost to figure is the cost
of producing the space. then come the
costs of operation. which remain more
or less fixed. Last but not least are
the taxes. Taxes are ever mounting,
and this in spite Of excess vacancy
that may exist at any given time. This
is due to the fact that the skyscraper
does not disappear as do security hold
ings and reserves in periods OF depres-
sion.
The inability OF assessing authorities
TO locate this evaneScent wealth throws
an added burden on real estate at the
worst possible time. II an oversupply
of Office space exists the building man
ager cannot close it out in a bargain
sale and restock with merchandl on
which he can make profit, as can
dealers in other commodities. 1t is lar
better to leave the space vacant. hold
ing it for future sale when business
conditions improve, than to rent at
loss. because the loss is continuing
loss for the whole period of the lease
and lasts even after business conditions
improve and other commodities are SELL
ing at profitable figures.
Cutting rents never created new
tenant 1t merely shifts tenants. Once
space is rented for relatively long
periods of time and therefore is less
subject to upturns and downgrades
than commodities. It is ,Inwise for the
building manager to charge all the
traffic will bear during prosperous times,
because he will be the first TO suffer
when the business cycle swings into the
downgrade. His tenants will find that
the tariff they were able to bear during
a period of prosperity IS greater than
they can afford during depression. and
the result will be moving as son as
lease consideration permit.

CHURCH PROPERTY
VALUES BATTLING
New York and Chicago A.
ford Appraisers Vex-
ing Problems.

Appraisers of Sproperty in New York
and Chicago, where a number of the
newer churches have been built into
apartment structures, have had real
"puzzlers" to solve in computing the
value. Of such properties, comprising
combination of non-taxable religious
housing with commercial property.
Also, churches are bought and sold
sometimes for use as churches and
sometimes for other uses. and deter
mining their value is a complicated pro-
cedure. 1t is pointed out by the Ma
tional Association Of Real Estate Boards
I'm the case Of commercial proper
ties, the modern appraiser works on the
combined value of the land and build
ing diScarding the old practice of val
uing these two factors separately" the
board states. But this method Is based
on the fact that the combination of
both land and building produce an in
come OF such and such figure.
But a church has no income that
can be compared with the income from
a corner cigar store. and the realtor-
appraiser usually uses the summation
