BUILDING IN NORTH
REVEALS INCREASE
F. H. A. Reports Boost in
Spite of Cold-Permit
Figures Compiled.

Building operations in Northern
States. normally at low ebb at this
season Of the year, are. instead. re-
cording a pronounced increase. ac-
cording to the Federal Housing Ad-
ministration, which is cooperating
with labor and trade groups in en-
couraging Winter time activity in the
construction field.
The conclusion Is based on exami-
nation Of building permit statistics
compiled by the Bureau of Labor Sta
tistics, Department Of Labor, repre-
senting new building, alterations and
repairs in 80 cities and towns in the
Northern sector. Included are such
distant points as Billings, Mont. and
Rutland, VT, and such important
cities as Chicago. Detroit and Buffalo
The figures substantiate the recent
assertion Of william Green. president
of the American Federation Of Labor
based on employment records, that
the trend in building apparently held
steady in November.
In the 80 cities, the value Of all
work covered by permits issued IN
November was S5.565,872 as COM
pared with 81 ,98o.764 in the corre-
spending month of 1888. an increase
of $3,5S5,078, or 180.s9 per cent.
OF this amount, $l,l09,988 was fol
new residential construction, as COM
pared with $543,515, gain of $685.
473, or l04.22 per cent over Novem-
ber 1888; non-residential building
permits accounted for $2,668, $50, an
increase of $2.002,187 or 300.63 PEI
cent, and alteration and repairs repre-
sented $1,770,8 $40, an increase Of ST.
0l0,4O6, or 132.87 per cent.
Work for which permits are is
sued in November usually continues
in December and January and IN the
case of new building into February
and even March, the two dullest
building months Of the year. The in
crease is taken to reflect breaking
down Of the age-old prejudice against
building In Winter even in the North.
where conditions are less favorable
than in other parts Of the country.

the State Of Louisiana has been run
from Union Station to an intersection
with Constitution avenue. A high pile
Of earth now disflguring the lot be-
tween Constitution, New Jersey ave-
nues, c and First streets will be used
for filling in cellars and holes in the
newly Handicapped area at the foot Of
Capitol Hill, where buildings now are
being raZed. Clearing away these old
structures has made way for an i'm
pressive new view of the Capitol
Building in its entirety. Constitution
avenue has been widened from Cap
itol Hill to the Potomac River, pro-
viding an impressive driveway, facili-
tating the heavy flow of downtown
traffic between monumental buildings
and the picturesque Mall.
New Capitol Hill Buildings.
New buildings are rising on Capitol
Hill, of which the new House Office
Building, and Senate wing were occu-
pied in 1888. An addition to the
Library Of Congress was finished dur
ing the past year for the rare book
reading room, and an annex TO the
Library Of Congress now Is well under
way. Foundations will be finished in
February, but. before that, bids for
the superstructure will be advertised
so the job can proceed rapidly.
The magnificent Supreme Court
Building, entirely of marble, is nearing
completion, under supervision of the
Architect of the Capitol, and probably
will be dedicated in May. during
sessions here of the American Law
Institute. Twenty EIGHT new eleva-
tors are being installed in the Capitol,
Senate and House Office Buildings at
a cost Of $4,000.
The pretentious Municipal Center
project, for which land has been ac-
quired and much space raZed be-
tween the Court House and Pennsyl-
vapia avenue. is still in an uncertain
state, with no construction in immedi-
ate prospect. No funds yet are avail
able for building. The municipal
architect now is studying original
plans Of the center. with a view to
the possibility Of cutting the space
in half. and selling part of the land
to finance construction Of the build
ings.
In addition TO school construction,
there were two large municipal build
ing projects started in 1884. These
are the addition to Gallinger Hospi-

Director of Division of Ala.
Gipes Credit to Work
of F. H. A.

The work of the Federal Housing
Administration definitely will raise
the standard of housing in the United
States, William T. Warren Of Birm-
ingham, Ala. director Of the South
Atlantic division Of the American In
stitute Of Architects, says in a report
on the work of architects in Virginia,
North Carolina, South Carolina. Ala
bama, Florida and Georgia during
1884.
Warren said the value Of the
architect is being recognized by the
Government, and architects, encour-
aged by the work Of the F. H. A,
foresee a real prospect of recovery
for the construction industry and a
wonderful opportunity for the archi-
tectural profession"
Higher Standards Seen.
"The work of the administration
through its system Of insured mort
cages will not only tend to bring pri-
vate capital into the construction
field and create an economically sound
mortgage market" Mr.. Warren con-
tinues, but 1t will very definitely
raise the standard Of housing in this
country.
For The purpose of protecting itself
on Its insurance Of mortgages the
Government must know exactly what
kind of q house will represents its
security. In proposed new construc-
ton offered for insured mortgages
complete plans and specifications Of
houses Of good quality must be pre-
sented to the Federal Housing Ad-
ministration for their consideration.
Trained architects will pass upon
these plans and specifications not
only as to estimated cost Of construc-
ton. but also upon INABILITY Of ar
rangement, design, structural sound
ness and Other qualities affecting the
value Of the property as security for
the mortgage loans. Architectural
inspectors representing the Govern
ment will inspect these houses from
time to time during the coure OF con-
struction to see that the plans and
specifications are being carried out.
Value Is Recognized.
"The value Of the architect is be-
ing definitely recognized by the Gov
ernment in the appraisal Of houses
for mortgage leans, and the employ
ment of capable architects in the de-
signing CT houses offered for insured
mortgage loans Is practically an es-
sential to the success of the applica-
ton. This system is for the distinct
benefit of the borrower, the lender,
the architect and the Government" !"
The historical American buildings
survey, conducted under the G. w. A.,
has given employment to many
Southern architects and furnished
them with jobs Of absorbing interest,
Mr.. Warren reports. "The thrill Of
studying and making drawings Of
these beautiful old houses did much
to improve the morale Of these men.
The drawings are to be made part of
the permanent records Of the Con-
gressional Library and the men work.
ing on them felt as il they were ac-
complishing something of real value
and not going through the motions
Of useless labor for disguised dole"
Mr.. Warren adds that there Is q
small amount of residential building
work being carried on, but no private
building in industrial sections. Prac-
ticing architects have been working
for the Federal relief projects on
schools and other buildings for which
P. W. A. loans have been authorized.
