EXPERT ANALYzES
PRICE RISE FACTOR
Control Factors Should Keen
Building Costs "Reason-
abIe," He Says.

Agitation on the subject OF rising
costs has familiar sound at this
stage Of construction industry re-
covery. according to Thomas Holden,
vice president in charge of statistics
and research for F. W. Dodge Corp.
In an article. Growing Pains of Re-
covery," which appears in the June
issue Of the Architectural Record.
Holden points out past experience
shows that three sets of powerful
economic brakes usually operate to
stabilize rising prices when the con-
struction industry is only half way up
IN recovery period.
According to Holdens analysis, the
three factors that customarily act as
brakes are credit control. buyers con-
troll and competition. He states that
these controls all operated most effec-
lively in 1929 when construction VOL
ume was about equal to this years,
and rapidly rising costs were viewed
with alarm. Central bank credit con-
troll then halted the rise in the gen.
eral price level; short temporary
recession in the volume of contracts
indicated that at the then stage of
returning prosperity buyers were un-
willing to pay prices that seemed ex-
cessive; continued expansion of plant
facilities for producing construction
materials in 1923 and for six years
thereafter maintained competitive
price conditions in the construction
market, which continued to expand 20
volumes double that of 1923 and dou-
bic present estimates for the year
1887.
Potential competition" says Holden,
is now probably greater and more
varied in character than ever before.
Here are some Of the kinds Of potential
competition:
Il. Between producers and sellers
Of the same materials.
%. Between different classes of ma
terials (wood-frame and brick, steel
and reinforced concrete, etc).
g. Between new construction meth
DDS and traditional methods.
a. Between urban construction and
suburban and small-town construc-
ton"
Holden sums up his analysis by
saying: With respect to the present
situation, We may fairly conclude that,
provided credit and budget controls
effectively check general commodity
price imitation, the control factors in
herent in the present stage of recov-
cry and in the highly competitive
construction market should hold con-
etruction costs within fairly reasonable
limits. even though temporary minor
recession in construction volume, like
the one in 1928, may be required as a
EtabiliZer."

Costs for cooling with we'll water
are low because the only expense is the
operation of the pump. Eight-room
houses in the Chicago area have been

Maintenance costs are negligible

 Meanwhile, TONY TELLICCI, retaurant chef. suspects his brother, CARLO, of being in- volved In the holdup and finds some of the loot in Carlos home.
 Carlo and his confederates make plans to rob the bank. NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY
The Waterbury Democrat., 1937-03-10

Carlo stood his ground. This youngster had nothing on him, only suspicion.
 "Why, you're crazy, Tonyl" he said, trying to sound reasonable. "You wandered in and helped yourself to what you found in my house, and now this is something you've dreamed up to gyp me out of 1t. Well, you can't get away with it."
 "I'm not stalling," said Tony. Why don't you go down to the police and call my bluR if you think it's a bluff? Or how about my helping you call my bluff right here? There's 8 girl upstairs now, helping the nurse with the old man, who's wearing a ring found in your house-the cops gave 1t back to her this morning"
 Carlo, in futile rage and sudden fear, glared across the kitchen. Tony faced him with no less anger. And neither was conscious of a figure in the doorway until Marcia entered the room and, carefully closing the door behind her, faced them both.
 "So that's how I got my ring back?" she said. Your brother, isn't 1t, Tony?"
 Tony nodded, aching with his shame and despair.
 Please, Miss Canfield," he said, remember the old man upstairs"
 q know, Tony" she said. We mustn't let him know about 1t. Here-the nurse sent me after hot water. Take 1t up to her. We'll wait here"
 Tony filled the kettle and went out of the room. Marcia and Carlo heard his feet going up the stairs. They heard the dripping of fau- cet, the ticking of the kitchen clock.
 And Carlos eyes were on the ring which could convict him. (To Be Continued)

Providence granted one further boon. Tony's landlady appeared in the hall, dressed for the street, and announced that she was going out for an hour. She opened the door and, ignoring Carlo, whom she detested, walked away. The problem of private quarters for the interview with Carlo thus was solved.
 "Come into the kitchen" Tony said curtly to his brother, and led the way.
 Carlo saved him from the em- barraSsment of any evasive opening remarks.
 "You know what I'm here forl" he said flatly. You're the guy who busted into my house and swiped some stun had in the trunk"
 Tony realized he had been ex- pecting this; sooner or later Carlo had been sure to guess the iden- tity of his visitor.
 T know what you're here for. What are you going to do about it?" he replied belligerently.
 'Well, for-l Listen here, you can't get away with robbing me, even if you are my brotherl What kind of a dope do you take me for I want that stuff back and want 1t quick"
 'The police got 1t this morning, but they don't know how" said Tony. And they've given 1t back to the owners by now"
 Are you crazy? That stuff is my property"
 How do you figure it's yours?"
 T bought 1t, wise guy; that's howl"
 For a moment @ futile hope rose in Tony; could Carol actually, ab- surdly, be guiltless? But the hope died quickly; there could be no mistake.
 Don't lie any more about it." said Tony. You're not putting anything over on me. I saw the pliers one of your mob used to clip the phone when they robbed the restaurant. They were your pliers. ]"
 T lend lots of my tools. Mel- lows all the time borrow them: half of 'em are out now. It's only your story you saw them, and even if you did see them, what's 1t got to do with me?"
 What's the use of stalling, Carlo? I've got 1t figured out right. You can't talk me out of 1t. You're in the gang that's been pulling all the robberies, and I'm telling you to get out of it or I'll turn you in to the cops.
 You're robbing my customers, my neignbors-people who live in the same town I live in, where I've been working decent job and taking care of the old man, and where I don't intend to let a punk like you ruin things for me or for Dad. If he wasn't @ sick man I'd have let you have this sooner. I didn't want to take any chances on his hearing about 1t; it'd prob- ably kill him.
 But I'm telling you now quit that racket, get out of that gang! Or believe me I'll turn you in, and I'll arrange som eway of keep ing the old man ignorant of 1t if I have to move him acvross the country and find another job!"
The Waterbury Democrat., 1937-03-10
CHAPTER XIV


 Tony Stellicci, with a sick heart, realized that he had bungled the job when he first suspected Carlos com- plicity in the Dog Wagon holdup. His immediate concern had been to recapture, as matter of honor, the property stolen before his eyes from the restaurant customers. In his ef- forts to this end, and subsequently,, h0 has acted in secret because of consideration of his father, fear ing the effect of the shock upon the invalid should he learn that his other son was a thief. Having regained and mailed anonymously to the police his brothers share of the things stolen at the Dog Wagon, Tony had felt himself baked: he did not know how to proceed without publicity harmful to his father.
 But as the same four men who had robbed his customers had since committed other holdups in Bobbs Neck-the Henderson bridge party and the Garfield home Tony realized the effects of his failure. Somehow he should have stopped Carlo at the outset.
 On the day after Carlos visit to New York, Tony awakened, as usual, soon after noon and, greet ing his father, prepared for his breakfast. served by the landlady along with his fathers lunch. The village welfare nurse was to call this afternoon on a regular visit, and after their meal Tony opened a book to read to his father until her arrival.
 Since Marcia Garfield, as part of her contribution to the welfare work, frequently accompanied the nurse on her rounds, Tony was not surprised when the two arrived to- gether this afternoon.
 Nor, of course, was he surprised when Marcia, while the nurse eff ciently began her tasks, told him of the mysterious recovery of her ring, the rub ring that had be- longed to her mother, taken by the Dog Wagon bandits and returned to her that morning by the police.
 Tony pretended surprise, and stammered congratulations as con- vincingly as possible, which would not have been convinced enough had Marcia had any reason to sus- pact anything behind his manner.
 How did you get 1t back?" he asked.
 "The police called me to the station this morning and asked me to identify it," said Marcia. "They received 1t, with some of the other things that were taken, in a pack age through the mail, without any explanation whatever. They're as mystified by 1t as you or l."
 Tony gulped. remembering his guilty visit to New York three days before to mail the package.
 '"That-that's certainly fine," he muttered.
 The nurse requested Marcia's $ assistance. Tony wandered miser- ably out of the room and down. stairs, where he stood in solemn thought at the front door.
 The move was providential, for at that moment Carlos car stopped In front of the house and his brother got out and strode up the walk.
 The time had come for a show down.
