tended from 20 years to 80 years,
100000 more families Of moderate
income could support the ownership
Of housing adequate to their needs.
Encourages Lending.
The Federal Housing Administration
at present insureS loans made to home
owners by banks. life insurance COM
panies and building and loan associa-
tions for repairs and construction
BY assuming the risk, 1t encourages
such private institutions to lend. But
there are now certain safeguards
which, some think, restrict its bene-
fits. Thus, the new home owner must
have 20 per cent equity in the house
In other words, only 80 per cent Of
properties up to $4,000 in value may
be insured. If this we're changed to
80 per cent, at least for small houses,
house building would receive a great
stimulus.
AS to home building costs other
than financing, much might be &C
complished, Thus, instead Of per-
mitting wages and prices to play leap
frog, industry and labor-as Secre-
tary Roper and other officials have
uggested-should get together and
plan for their own and the country's
best interests. In Great Britain. six
years OF voluntary cooperation Of all
branches OF the housing industry have
assisted in maintaining building &C
tivities. The rates Of building societies
have been reduced from 6 per cent
in 1929 to as low as Az per cent.
Strong revival OF the building in
dustry would give powerful stimulus
to business throughout the economic
system, as it has done in England
The favorable effects would be felt
by all those who produce, transport.
distribute or handle the numerous
materials used in construction work.

steel and other building materials were
lifted following prolonged and expen-
sive labor agitation, prices were ad-
justed to reflect not only actual but
expected increased costs-and then the
public baked, as might have been ex-
pected.
In February, L. J. Chawner. Com
merce Department construction-eco-
nomics expert, wrote that increasing
costs of construction due to skilled
labor shortages and advancing ma
terial prices may retard actual build
ing" And that is what happened.
During the first half OF 1887 residential
construction increased 80 per cent, as
compared with the same semester OF
1896, but during the third quarter it
was % per cent less than in 1886 Now
general business uncertainty is further
adding to the risks OF home construc-
ton.
This is particularly unfortunate,
since the latent demand for new houses
is larger than in many years. In 1882,
vacancies in many cities were as high
as 8 per cent Of the existing dwelling
units. This ratio has been steadily de-
clining. and in some cities is now down
to less than per cent.
Long Term Fluctuations.
The production of houses is marked
by severe long-term fluctuations in
volume. Thus, according to one esti-
mate, In 1918. about 100000 units we're
built; in 1925. $4,000. or more; in
1885, $4,000. and, in 1886. 275,00o Evil
dence Of cycles Of large amplitude
with durations Of Is to % years have
been found by Mr.. Chawner.
No other industry OF comparable size
has evidenced as severe fluctuations
during the postwar period. The post
ponable character Of new construction
the great length Of life of houses and
the relative ineffectiveness OF economic
processes for taking submarginal struc-
lures permanently out of use add to the

Anything which would lower the
cost Of homes would tend to stimulate
home building A one-fifth reduction
in the cost Of home, from $4,000 to
$4,000. would probably increase the
number Of families which could afford
such a home by about 3,500,OO0 in
non-farm areas. This suggests the
powerful influence which reduction
in costs would have
During periods like the present,
when there is a shortage of houses,
cost Of ownership" plays an i'm
portant part in determining the VOL
u1ne of new building. In 1890,
when costs Of materials and wages rose
sharply, the sudden rise. in spite Of
very active demand, did much to
cause a reaction in new building. On
the other hand, the early readjust-
ment of prices late in 1920 induced
new construction in 1921.
High Costs Play Role.
1t is fair inference that high costs
have been playing similar role in the
building recession of 1887. The cubic
foot cost Of building in the District
Of Columbia rose from 2l5 cents in
September. 1896. to 2e2 cents a year
later. The total building cost Of a
standard six-room house in the Dis
trict Of Columbia was, according to
the Government. s4,973 in June, 1896,
and $6,286 in September, 1887.
In August, the wholesale prices Of
building materials were almost IL per
cent higher than in August. 1895.
They were. in fact, higher than at
any time since 1929.
How can costs be reduced? One
important method Mr. Roosevelt has
in mind is cheaper financing costs

BETWEEN 1893 and i4os
Christopher Columbus had
made o second trip 10 the West In.
dios and had explored new shores.
But his third journey In 1899
brought discomfort and mutiny
among two groups OF his men, and
finally caused his own imprison.
ment on false charges.
Queen Isabella sent an officer Of
the royal household, Francisco de
Bobadiila, TO investigate the
charges against Columbus. The
mutineers were oil too ready TO
incriminate their leader. and Boz
badilla was. too eager TO display
his power. And 20, the humbled
Columbus was put In chains and
sent back 10 Spain for trial.
But when the navigator, now
about 80 years old, appeared be-
fore Isabella, the queen broke into
tears. She ordered Columbus re.
leased, put more money at his dis
Iposal, and restored him 10 royal
favor.

FUR-COATED GIRL
AIDS DAPPER THUG
Taxicab Driver Relieved of
$11, His Days Earnings,
in HoId-up by Pair.

A fur-coated girl whose face was
covered by q veil and her well-dressed
escort early today held up a taxicab
driver and relieved him of $11, his
earnings during 13 strenuous hours
Of bucking holiday trafhc.
The victim of the hold-up was Her.
man L. Hazel, "a, of 3812 Thirteenth
street NV. He told police the couple
hailed his cab at North Capitol street
and Michigan avenue, directing him
10 Seventh and Quincy streets NV.
Arriving at the latter address, Mr..
Hazel said, the man held a pistol on
him and ordered him to hand over
his cash and automobile keys. The
hacker complied and the man then
gave the money to the girl.
The couple left the cab, which the
driver was unable to unlock, and got
into another automobile. Mr.. Hazel
told police he thought the other car
was occupied by confederates who had
followed from North Capitol street.
A colored woman and two colored
men early today held up another taxi
cab driver-Clarence L. Muire, 81, of
1928 H street NE, whom they struck
on the head with pistol butt after
robbing him of $500
The driver told police he picked up
the woman fare" at Eleventh street
and Pennsylvania avenue NV, and
she directed him to Eleventh and o
streets NV, where two colored men
entered the cab. They told him to
drive into nearby alley, the hacker
said, to pick up fourth person. The
robbery occurred in the alley. The
driver received hospital treatment for
cuts over the eye and on a cheek.
Samuel G. Adams, 2l38 California
street NV, told police he surprised
. colored burglar in his home last
night, and the man fed through q
window with jewelry valued at SITS
and $40 in cash.
Police Chief Ernest w. Brown ex-
pressed the conviction today that extra
details Of officers patrolling the streets
during the holiday shopping rush have
succeeded in reducing robberies,
despite the fact department stores
are remaining open longer than usual
and more spenders are abroad after
dark this year than last.
Onicers on the day shift have been
reporting for extra night duty for a
week now. They have been assigned
to patrol the busiest shopping sections
and liquor and other stores which
have been held up in recent weeks.
Maj. Brown and his inspectors are
personally leading the anti-robbery
patrols. The police chief expressed
qualification today at what he con-
siders the success of the extra duty
plan.
AS many officers as possible will be
given Christmas Day off, and the
uniformed policemen will receive time
OF for their extra holiday duty as
soon as the situation permits, it was
said.
