REALTY OPPORTUNITIES
STRESSED BY ROBINSON
Senator Asserts Billions Can Be
Invested Now With
Trivial Risk.

Senator Robinson Ct Arkansas. in the
course of recent Philadelphia radio
address against boarding, laid particu-
lar stress on the opportunities now pre-
sented by real estate.
Real estate values now, compared
with two years ago, are exceedingly low,
and, in fact, constitute a field in which
billions may be invested with compare
lively trivial risks" he said 1.-The total
area of land, both urban and rural,
available for occupancy is definitely
known and can never be greatly in
creased. Population and demand for
land are constantly growing. Economic
laws will tend to cause wholesome dis
tribution Of population. Real estate
values will logically take an upward

BEAUTIFUL HOMES

Pompous Victorian Houses

Special nispatch TO The Star.

! Special Dispatch to The Star
| LONDON, April 30.-London is rap
idly becoming a city of beautiful homes.
While people are lamenting the passing
of one great town house after another
they seem blind to the triumphant ex-
periments of many young hostesses.
With the aid of some of the best
artists and architects they are Great

Color Being Used.
| It is by means of color that many
pompous Victorian houses are being
converted into things of beauty. Mrs.
Philip Kindersley, for instance, has
! chosen unusual modern tones, Hchen
green and cowslip yellow, for this
transformation, in which the artistic
modern hostess finds such Joy.
Lady Edward Hay, who has the
modern horror of oppressive formality,
has rediscovered the charm and SIM
plicity of chintz. Blush tones and sun
| shine shades have brought color to vast
walls that were paneled until recently
| in dark brown or covered with dingy
wallpaper.
The white" drawing room is as
popular as the white bed room, though
In the "ase of the former white gen.
orally Leans ivory or oatmeal color,
while peach and duck egg green shades
also are much in favor.
One remarkable contribution to mod
ern London is the introduction of i'm
portant architectural features by lead
ing artists into comparatively small
homes, which thereby are joining the
ranks of London's great houses. A
| fireplace by Jaeger and Adam ceilings
done by a young artist of today are
among the treasures that posterity may
revere.
Modernist Fashions.
Modernist fashion, including glass
walls, are being given a full trial in
the dining room and bath room, where
they are proving extremely successful
Another new idea is the tendency OF
the bachelor girls of Mayfair to take
