league president notes from . hasty
survey OF some OF the leading thrift
and home financing institutions Of the
country.
There will always be competition
for the money of the man of average
means, between investment in perma-
nent goods and use Of his extra dollars
in an attempt to make . quick gain"
said Donaldson. THE recent de-
velopments in the share market have
served to check up once again the
dream of the little man about doubling
and tripling his funds overnight. He
turns with relief to the solid earth and
the house upon it."
Reports from the thrift and home
financing institutions surveyed tell Of
the home purchasers who have come
in to get loans and who have been
voicing these sentiments with con-
siderable frequency in the past month,
according to the league president. The
same effect is also being felt in the
associations sales Of properties which

falling off in residential practice,
there was no State in which a ma
jority did not anticipate some i'm
provement.
The survey was based on replies to
a QUESTIONABLE received from repre-
sentative architects located in 1853
communities of the Al States repre-
sented, including small cities as well
as metropolitan centers. In an
nouncing the results it was empha-
sized that, while the QUESTIONABLE
produced a considerable amount of
factual data based on the actual
recent experience OF architects, the
purpose was not to develop compre-
hensive. statistical information Of the
type available in governmental and
other standard reports, but to obtain
a typical cross-section of local archi-
tect opinion of current conditions In
the field of residential practice.

ARCHITECTS HAIL
INCREASE IN HOMES
Dollar Value of Work Shows
Average Gain of 27
Per Cent.

That the dollar volume of residen-
tial building work handled by archi-
tects in the United States will show
an average increase of 81 per cent
In 1887 over 1886, and that an av-
erage of "a per cent of architects
residential building clients in the
first half of 1887 were interested in
new construction, rather than mod
ernization. were among the findings
Of survey of opinions by repre-
sentative architects in Al States.
completed yesterday by the Ruberoid
Co., manufacturers of building prod
ucts.
Women, according to 80 per cent
of the replying architects, are most
frequently responsible for the selec-
ton Of the general type of house to
be built. Twelve per cent believed
the husbands choice in this respect
was most likely to be the deciding
one, while per cent indicated that
the final decision was ordinarily a
b0-50 compromise.
Women Consider Appearance.
In considering materials for the
exterior of the house, it was found
that women are most influenced by
appearance and men by first cost
Other factors strongly considered by
both men and women were fire pro-
lection, insulation and upkeep cost.
Another finding of the survey, sup
posted by SIS per cent of the reporting
architects, was growing tendency
on the part of home builders of mod
crate means (able to finance a house
costing from $500 to s15,OOO) to
engage the complete services of an
architect. including supervision of
construction, as we'll as the prepara-
ton of plans and specifications. The
three factors considered chiefly re-
sponsible for this trend were: As
surance that materials and construc-
ton will be up to specifications, a
feeling of need for experienced and
unbiased guidance, and a growing
public realization that investment in
an architects fees saves money in
the end.
Increases in Illinois.
The most optimistic reports came
from Illinois and Iowa, where the re-
porting architects predicted an av-
erage increase of IS per cent in the
dollar volume of their residential prac-
tice this year over last. In Is States
oil the reporting architects predicted
some increase. In the other 26 States
from which replies were received,
while architects in some individual
communities predicted no change or
