MERCHANT IDEAS
GIVEN REALTORS
National Association Clinic
Here Emphasizes Up-to-
Date SaIesmanship.

Washington realtors were advised TO
consider themselves more as merchants
and to make their goods" more salable
for continued success In the business by
two councillors who conducted clinic
at the Willard Hotel yesterday under
auspices of the National Association of
Real Estate Boards and the local board.
Paul E. Stark, Madison, Wis, fealtor,
and Guy W. Ellis, former president of
the Detroit board, addressed 200 per-
sons in sessions IN the afternoon and
night.
Stark classified four essentials for sue
cessful sale of real property as: Fair
prices, quality of the goods to be sold,
beauty and attractiveness and service.
These, he said, were absolutely neces-
sary If the realtor Is to compete on
anywhere near even terms with other
industries and businesses.
Must Be Up-to-Date.
The real estate business, he said.
must bring itself up to present-day
methods and must release itself from
some of the sales methods and mis-
conceptions entertained by many real
tors today in regard to the home.
Stark said that in his brief stay In
Washington, less than "a hours. he had
seen some of the best real estate adver-
Using of any in his countrywide tour.
Advertising piece Of property, he said,
is not so important for the sale Of the
particular property as it is to get pros
poets for future sales.

i. S. ARCHITECTURE
TO SURPASS ALL
Chairman of 1888 World Fair
Commission Says Borrowed
Ideas Are Done.

Rejecting imitation, architects and
producers will create in America an ar
chitecture more splendid than the
world has ever known, it is predicted by
Harvey Wiley Corbett Of New York,
chairman Of the Architectural Commits
sion of the Chicago Worlds Fair in
1888, in statement made public by the
American Institute of Architects, of
which he is a fellow.
Architectural styles based on models
from the past have served their pur-
pose, Mr.. Corbett declares, and are
giving way to style of architecture
which will not be a rehashing of some
thing that has gone before; which will
not be masquerading in borrowed
clothes, but which will be style and
type of building absolutely expressive
nfe."
Vast Difference Seen.
Our whole social organization, our
industrial, commercial and educational
institutions are so totally different from
anything the world has known before
that for us to continue to try to house
those industries within old forms that
come out of the Middle Ages and an
tiquity is ridiculous, he asserts.
Architects have not been entirely to
blame in their use of older styles of
architecture. They have had an enor-
nous problem.
Architects Eyes Open.
1.-THE architect has begun to open his
eyes and to think of new products in
terms of their use and the advantage
it would be to have them not as ar
imitation of something else, but for
themselves, and to create new forms of
construction which are more logical and
economic than methods of construction
which are now in vogue.
when one sees man on the fortieth
or f1ftieth story of a steel frame build
ing laying brick exactly in the manner
that the Egyptians did 5000 years be-
fore Christ one wonders how much the
architectural world has advanced in its
ideas.
"A building Is the most complicated
machine manufactured by man. The
automobile or the printing press does
not begin to equal the complications OF
a great modern structure as 1t Is erected
in our cities today"

FAVOR
TAX ADJUSTMENTS
Executives of 20 States Say
Change Is of Major I'M
portance This Year.

The Governors of 20 States of this
country recently declared publicly that
tax adjustment was of major impor-
lance in the work to be done during
this year, the National Association of
Real Estate Boards reported today in a
survey of efforts being made for relief
of owners of real property from bur
densome" taxation.
The owner of real estate, Americas
biggest taxpayer, may live to see sub
stantial revision of epresent forms OF
taxation, the association reports de-
claring that practically every State In
the Union has pending some measure
that seeks to help the owner of real
property.
Many Proposals Made.
The appointment of commissions to
investigate the State tax commissions,
the creation of State tax commissions,
the investigation of present expendi-
lures, a proposal that intangibles be
taxed directly, the reduction Of assessed
values and other measures are being
pushed throughout the country by leg
islators, the national realtor body re-
ports.
whatever can be done under the
equality of assessment. and at least
some degree Of justice in the distribu'
ton of the tax burden, so that intangi-
BILE property will pay larger share
should be undertaken" said Gov. Loui:
L. Emmerson of Illinois in a specia
message to the Legislature.
In Indiana, where bills are up to stop
sherif1's sales of delinquent" property
and to directly tax intangibles, Gov
Harry G. Leslie calls the present tax
system unfair" and points out that
since the tax laws were enacted many
new classes of property have been Gre
ated that entirely escape taxation"
The tax rate could be substantially
lowered if all taxable property was
placed on the tax rolls" says Gov
Harry H. Woodring of Kansas.
In Nevada, Gov. Fred B. Balzar re-
Gently recommended that provision be
made for a Statewide survey to study
the possibility of raising revenues from
the people other than owners Of real
property.
Duplication of local governments has
been scored by Gov. 0. Max Gardner OF
North Carolina. and Gov. George r
Shafer of North Dakota wants a COM
mission named to study this question.

 Authorities were continuing their investigation to-day in an effort to check several details of the crime, in- cluding the whereabouts of the .22 caliber revolver used in the shooting. Investigators learned William was in the habit of borrowing "a light re- volver for target practice from a girl acquaintance. The identity of the girl and whether this was the gun used by the murderer before he crushed out Emily's life with a boulder were points of doubt receiv- ing careful attention.
 Finger. prints on the shotgun Wet more used to blow two holes through his abdomen after drinking acid were expected to be compared to-day to the half-erased traces on a fragment of a bottle believed to have been used to club Emily before the as- sault in a wooded ravine behind the fire house.

 Dr. Joslin, who had been quoted in published reports as outlining a theory that Wetmore killed Emily after trailing her and another man to the secluded spot where the killing occurred. asserted to-day that he had been misquoted.
