Plumbing fixtures of today are not
only considerably lower priced than
20 years ago. but the efficiency. quail
ity and design are far advanced. ac-
cording to a survey of the industry
just completed by the Plumbing and
Heating Industries Bureau. reported
to the Federal Housing Administra-
ton.
Heating equipment, too, has not
only been improved. but the price
is approximately half of values pre-
vailing in 1925.
Adopting the 1926 price level as
basis with the index number of 100.
the bureau finds that the index num-
ber indicating relative prices for a
5-foot corner built-in tub has de-
clined to 551 in 1884.
A similar downward tendency is
evident in the relative prices of kitch-
en- sinks over a 20-year period. the
bureau states. The index number for
a 20 by So inch roll-rim one-piece
which stood at 100 in 1926, today
stands at $50.
With the stimulus of unprecedented
low prices, the attractive credit pro-
visions of the Federal Housing Ad-
ministration plan, and the Nation
wide interest in modernization, the
bureau finds the public engaging in
extensive moderization of the plumb
ing in residential and business prop
critics.
Shipments of vitreous china plumb
ing fixtures reported to the United
States Department of Commerce by
18 manufacturers for October 1894,
we're 1885 pieces. as compared with
99,403 pieces in October, 1888.

The apparent conflict between the
Prince Georges County building regu-

caused Boyer to be hailed before
Justice Of the Peace Oscar T. Poore
for failing to comply with article %
| of the town regulations.
According to Judge Poore the regu-
lation calls for the construction of
fire walls between two or more Sec
tions of buildings. The attorney for
Boyer contended that such a regula-

regulation and the county regulations
superseded the municipal regulations.

in December, is waiting for a ruling

REALTY SECURITY
|SSUESSH0W GAIN
Percentage of Increase Is
Higher Than Other
Groups.

Representative real estate securi-
ties advanced a greater percentage
for the year ended December 81
than any other comparative group OF
securities, according to report on
a study Of price averages compiled by
Amott, Baker g. Co. of New York. ,
The study revealed that real estate
securities have only been exceeded by
the advance of industrial stocks in
the last two years. 1t also showed that
securities Of housekeeping apartments
made the greatest improvement in
the two-year period and that, of the
various types of liens, first fee issues
showed the highest rate of increase.
IL Per Cent Gain.
During the closing six weeks of 1884
securities of apartment hotels, house
keeping apartments and hotels ap-
preciated about equally or slightly
over II per cent. Securities of office
buildings appreciated 8.4 per cent and
during the same period the l34 New
York City issues in the price averages
appreciated 1913 per cent, which was
substantially in excess of rises in many
other cities. For the same period the
price advance in real estate securities
was quite rapid, being more than
double that of one of group OF listed
industrial stocks used as a basis for
one of the well-known price averages.
For the year 1884 the percentage
gain in real estate securities was more
than 6la times that of the same group
of listed industrial stocks. Forty
representative listed bonds showed
percentage increase during 1884 Of a
little more than a third that Of real
estate securities.
Buffalo Gains Lead.
For the entire year 1884 Buffalo
issues showed up best from the stand
point OF appreciation but New York
City also led for the total two-year
period covered. For the year 1884, the
appreciation was 36.5 per cent or an
improvement from S197 per $1,000
bond to 1859 per 81 900 bond.
In selecting the issues for the price
averages, Amott, Baker & Co. in
Ullly ISSuCS VI ou1ANiCllt olLC W
have had broad public distribution.
No issue was included which was orig
inally outstanding in an amount less
than 100000. The 200 representative
real estate mortgage bond issues. Sc
cured by properties located principally
in Eastern cities. include issues secured
by 80 apartment hotels. Al housekeep-
ing apartments, 19 hotels, II office
buildings, 10 theaters and 81 miscei-
laneous types which cannot be classi-
fled strictly in any of these groups. The
basis of price used was the dealer bid
In certain instances there are no
offerings. while dealer bids are vir-
tually always available. The geo.

Sammy conducted himself.
CAMAfY went along beautifully in

holes. slipped over one stroke or
No. 7, but was even par on the next
and was sitting pretty with a per-
feet drive from the ninth tee that
stopped just five yards short Of the

tee wallop.
A safe par here would get Sammy
TO the turn. one stroke under
Wagner. who had reached there
the day before in 80. But Simpson
chose to get there two strokes ahead
OF Cliff. and on the next shot he
smacked the ball all the way past
the green. walked over and did the
same thing on his shot back. He
finally wound up by getting on in
four down in six. and right there
went his chance to win.
LIE played beautifully on the way
Il Il in to get home in 81, but two
breaks cost him. One was on the
twelfth green where he was down in
four instead of par three. The 9TH
or was on the 18th hole, where ne
was against a tree and had to waste
a shot getting away.
He posted a rs. one stroke more
