OFFICE SP ACE
IN DEMAND

One Of the barometers of busi-
ness, according to noted eco
nomists, is the steel industry.
Another indication of the way
the trade winds are blowing is
the demand, or lack Of it, for
office space.
According to this latter measur-
ing stick, Washington is pulling
out Of the depression cellar, as
managers are once again being
queried as to space.
This condition is particularly
noticeable at the Carpenters
Building, Tenth and K Streets
Northwest.
There have been persistent in
quirieS about space over the last
few months, according to Edgar
j. Appel, mans&sS. Letters ask
ing for information have been
coming in from the far West
and other parts Of the country,
indicating among other things,
Washington's growing Importance
as the capital of business, as well
as of Government.

Russian Opera Is
Seen at BeIasco
By RONALD THORNE

Washington last night witnessed
the first presentation Of Tschai-
kowsky's opera, "Mazeppa," ever
given in this city. The opera was
shown at the Belasco Theater by
the Ukrainian Art Theater, and
will be repeated tonight.
Tachaikowsky's score is re-
markably fine, and the orchestra
though small for opera inter
preted it admirably under the di-
rection of Paul OuglitSky. The
voices were excellent, and the
principal roles of Mazeppa,
Hotrya and Kotchubey were well
portrayed by Nikolai Karlash,
Mikhail Shvetz and Lola Month
Gorsey, who was seen here in an
other operatic production only a
short time ago.
The acting, with the exception
Of that of Nine. Monti,G Gorsey,
was simple, unaffected and in the
spirit Of the opera itself. She
sang her role well but had a ten
dency to overact.
The opera itself is melodra-
matte, much in the Italian tradi-
ton. 1t tells of the romance Of
Mazeppa and his kidnapped bride,
Motrya, who becomes insane when
her husband has her father exc
cuted but ultimately dies in
Mazeppa's arms when, defeated
at Poltava, he returns to her.

HAROLD DOYLE
WINS CUP

Harold e. Doyle, first vice presi-
dent Of the Washington Real Es-
tate Board and Of Thos. J. Fisher
& Co., was the winner Of the San
Francisco Cup, the chief trophy
in the golf tournament Of the
National Association Of Real Es-
tate Boards which was staged at
the Miami Biltmore Country Club
last week. Mr.. Doyle had a net
score Of II, par for this famous
course. He played the difficult
last five holes in only one over
par.
Mary Levy was the winner Of
the blind bogey prize, which also
was II, and gave Mr.. Doyle and
Mr.. Levy a tie. The ruling that
no entry win more than one
prize, however, gave Mr.. Levy
his reward.
Hawley Russell Of Coral Gables,
carded a birdie 3 on the ninth
hole to win the prize for the
most brides, but here again the
one-prize rule was called into
effect, for Mr.. Levy also had a
birdie on the same hole. Frank
Pepper Of Miami, took the fourth
prize for the most one putt
greens, with six.

LAND VALUATION
HELD FAULTY

Financial catastrophe in many
American cities is due to a false
sytem of land valuation and
means sharp realtor competition
in the near future and more skill
full property management than
ever before, according to Graham
Adds, Chicago realtor, who dis
cuSseS Real Estate and Taxes"
in the February issue of Current
History.
The real cause of municipal
bankruptcy, Mr.. Adds believes,
lies in the fact that "the entire
urban economic structure, the
whole system of land utilization
and land valuation as it has de-
veloped since the turn of the cen
tury is out of gear"
AS evidence of this maladjuSt-
ment, he cites overoptimistic real
estate developments, overliberal
coming regulations and consequent
embarrassment by taxing authori-
ties. City tax rolls, as a result,
are full of uncollectible entries.

RADIOS IN CARS
INCREASING IN
POPULARITY
Dealers Predict Record Sale
Of New Low Cost Set
Now on Market

It is conservatively estimated
that over a million automobile
radios will be sold this year. This
figure is based on the increases
Of the last several years.
The first year in which any
great number Of car radios were
installed was 1880, $4,000 being
made that year. The following
year this number was more than
trebled, reaching 10000, in 1882
jumping to 100000, while 1888
really popularized the car radio.
the sales mounting to 100000.
Prices Low
According to ]. W. Roderick,
manager of the Western Auto
Store at 1913 Thirteenth St. N. W
there are two principal reasons
for an optimistic outlook concern.
ing car radio sales in 1884: First.
the improved performance. recep.
ton and tone, and, second, the
low prices.
AS to the first point Roderick
cites the company's latest model
Truetone car radio, a six-tube
superheterodyne model which will
do anything the average house set
would be expected to do.
The biggest single improvement
in automobile radio was made in
1888, and explains the big jump in
sales. This was the replacement
Of the old troublesome and expen-
sive B batteries with B elini-
nator Of some type, which supplied
a uniform amount of current
direct from the storage battery.
Constant improvements in B
eliminator construction were made
during the 1888 season, until they
have now reached high level of
perfection, with earlier troubles
overcome.
Much Improved
Even though car radios this
year sell for only about one-half
the 1882 prices, they are greatly
improved sets that will give salts
factory service, day or night, win
ter or summer, and regardless of
speed or other conditions under
which the car may be driven. A
few years ago a street car line,
overhead power cables, electric
transformers or a thunder storm
made car radio useless; but there
have been great advances since
that time.
A mechanical engineer was
needed in 1882 and earlier to in
stall a car radio. In most cases
a set had to be carefully laid out
and figured into the space avail
able, due to the bulk of various
units. The speaker went in one
location, the set in another, and
the B batteries or B battery cur
rent supply went in a third. If
the car was equipped with a hot
water heater or any other unit
mounted on the dash, it fire.
quently became practically impos-
Sible to install the radio.

BUILDERS
SEEKING NEW
LOAN PLAN
Association TO Meet Friday to
Discuss 5000 Million in
New "Currency"

The Federal Home Loan Bank
Board will hold a public hearing
next Friday on the plan Of the
Home and Community Builders
National Association to have
5000 million dollars In currency
issued to aid distressed home own
ers and to revive the home con-
struction industry.
The hearing is to be held main
ly for the purpose Of reviewing the
assertion Of the home builders as
ISOLATION that there is an "enor-
nous" demand for new home con-
struction throughout the country,
in the New York and Chicago
areas, as well as in smaller towns
and cities.
Cash Sought
The association will also ex.
plain to the home loan bank
board, which is also the board Of
the Home owners Loan Corpora
ton, how its currency plan can
be operated so that cash instead
Of bonds can be released for dis
tressed properties.
The plan contemplateS, through
amendment Of the home owners
loan act, the issuance Of "home
loan currency" that would look
exactly like other currency. but
would be recalled from circulation
and destroyed as the loans f.
nanced in this way were repaid to
the Government. The subject will
come before the home loan bank
board because the home owners
loan corporation Is part Of the
home loan system.
The executive board Of the
home and community builders
national association also an
nounced that the Housing Board
Of the PWA was ''unreasonably
delaying" a request for a hear
ing in that body on the need for
first mortgage loans for new
housing which, the home build
ers body stated is wanted within
the next 80 days and before the
currency plan could be put into
operation.
Plan Needed
Although Robert D. Kohn, d.
rector Of the PWA Housing Divi-
sion on December %, in a writ
ten statement, approved a uni
form plan submitted by the as
sociation for financing the con-
struction of new low cost homes
with PWA funds, officers Of the
homebuilderS organization be-
lieve the hearing is necessary to
bring out the situation existing
in hundreds of communities
where building trades employees
could be put back to work on
needed and economically sound
recovery projects if mortgage
funds were made available.
The home builders association
further announced that failing
to secure a hearing at the PWA
by February i, it would hold its
own hearing on that date and
appeal to President Roosevelt to
review the testimony given at
that time, and 1000 companies
were invited to send representa-
tives to the hearing, which will
be held at the Washington Hotel.
