.ROOSEvELT'S TAX
PLAN ASSA|[ED
Secretary of Baltimore Real
Estate Board Cites
Evils.
Special Dispatch to The Star.

Special DlSpdLcn 10 Inc StaT.
BALTIMORE, August 17.-"Social-
istic taxation of the Roosevelt ad-
ministration which aims to tax all
siZable estates out of existence" was
assailed this week by C. Philip Pitt,
secretary Of the Real Estate Board.
"If we tolerate a philosophy today
which condemns the accumulation OF
a $10,000,00 estate, how long will 1t
be before our tolerance contracts to
the point of $1,000,000 or even $780,
900 as the limit to the estate of any
one person or family?" he said.
Mr.. Pitt said he believes the de-
preston in real estate ended about a
year ago, and pointed to the present
buying trend of real estate as a hedge
against the possibilities Of imitation,
and continued:
with the New Dealers In Washing
ton grabbing onto Huey Longs share
the wealth idea, those who have spent
the best years of their lives accumu-
lating small. medium or large for
tune for their estates, and have in
vested their savings in real estate,
are watching with much concern the
drift toward greatly increased inher-
itance taxes.
And those who would be rea-
sonably sure that their work and
plans of lifetime for the benefit
of their widows, sons and daughters
will not be destroyed by socialistic tax
alton will endeavor to guard against
quick liquidation in order to satisfy
the demands Of notwithstanding tax
schemes, which, If enforced during
the past several years, would have
almost wiped out many estates on

Of doing this is to paint the edges of

orphans are now dependent for their
self-respecting economic existence.
"At least some thoughtful men
whose estates are made up largely OF
real estate are protecting themselves
in a measure, If not too far advanced
in years, by life insurance deemed
adequate to at least pay all inheri-
tance and other taxes to which their
estates are likely to be subjected.
Those who may adopt this plan
will keep an eye On the somewhat
ingenious plans Of those who are
fostering the socialistic swat-the- rich
program to be sure that they do not
include even life insurance In their
idiotic schemes to tax all sizsble
estates out of existence.
What Congress may do in the
matter of increasing inheritance taxes
will not materially affect the average
business man for the time being ex-
cept to serve as an indication of what
may follow"

space in 50 per cent Of the cities.
However, the report pointed out, with
adjustment going on as to loan terms
and loan practices, uncertainty still
felt by families as to their future
income and construction costs still
in unfavorable ratio to rent levels,
there is in general an extremely con-
servative amount, at the present time,
Of home building. Many cities cite
need of home building, but lack Of
available financing. The report con-
tinued:
Real estate market activity has
shown itself predominantly increasing
since Midsummer survey of 1888 Price
levels began to show measurable up
swing a year later. In the present
survey every city of over 100000 popu-
lation reporting is experiencing a
more active market. Over rs per cent
Of these larger cities report higher
selling prices.
Notwithstanding the so-called hesi-
tation period observed in general busi-
ness absorption of single-family space
is shown to be proceeding steadily,
with SO per cent of the cities already
showing shortage.
THE supply demand situation for
apartment space is little changed from
that Of six months ago. OF cities re-
porting, 90 per cent show shortage,
only per cent of the cities show an
over supply, while 65 per cent show
normal balance.
Business Space Figures.
"Some further absorption is shown
In business property, though 26 per
cent of the cities still show over sup
ply here. While central business space
Is renting higher in Al per cent of
the cities, properties in outlying tusi-
ness districts tend to rise in only 20
per cent Of the cities, are on the level
Of last year in 70 per cent of the cities.
"Offce buildings are tagging behind
business properties in the matter of
supply as measured by rent
changes. Central Office space is at
last years rate in 80 per cent of the
cities. The present survey, however,
begins to show predominance of up
over down reports, both in Office rents
and in rents for outlying business
property. In respect to central busi-
ness properties, this turn came six
months ago.
Substantial advance is shown in
degree to which money is available
for real estate mortgage loans. OF
the cities reporting, 50 per cent show
capital seeking investment, while only
81 per cent show loans seeking cap
ital. Six months ago only 81 per cent
Of the cities showed capital seeking
mortgage placement. while 50 per cent
showed loans seeking capital.
Failing interest rates add to the
favorable situation for real estate. But
they are as yet by no means general.
Rates are steady in SO per cent Of
the cities, falling in 38 per cent of
the cities, rising 3 per cent Of the
cities. Six months ago they were
steady in So per cent of the cities,

Window Box Refreshing.

City apartment dwellers who have
no space for gardens at all find that
a window box gives refreshing bit
Of color and fragrance. Petunias,
marigolds, verbenas and other long
season ANIMALS are good subjects for
the window box. Mignonette is a
fragrant plant which is highly priced
for this purpose.

Not a single city of over 100000
population reports any remaining over
supply of single family dwellings,
More than 10 per cent of these cities
show shortage. Every city of over
100000 population reports mortgage
loans now actually obtainable for
new home building. Every city of
over 100000 population reports cap
