Strikes Barred in JsdcionaZ Disputes of Building Trades
Study Of Home
Needs Urged
By Fisher
Says Housing Demand
Affects Sales In
Subdivisions

Total demand and effective de-
mand for houses are two terms
which developers should study
carefully before laying plans for
launching the development Of a
large number Of houses Of par
ticular price classification, it was
declared today by Ernest M.
Fisher, director of the Federal
Housing Administrations econon1-
les and statistics division.
From experience with hundreds
Of developments submitted Tor ap-
proval during the past two years,
DR.. Fisher said, the Federal Hous-
ing Administration has found that
developers are prone to confuse
the two terms and to accept as
their potential market one which
is much larger than the actual
market. He explained:
although adequate and COM
prehensive figures are difficult
to obtain, it Is possible to gain
q reasonably accurate idea Of the
effective demand for houses in
a given locality, If the proper
approach is used. While the
Federal Housing Administration
cannot supply that data on given
communities, it can indicate the
type of procedure to be used
and the possible sources of in
formation.
with the aid Of these figures,
and by a careful study of the
existing building and real estate
activity in the vicinity, develop
erS should be able better to plan
successful new subdivisions. Un-
less some attempt is made to
analyze the actual, effective de-
mand, developers may find it
extremely difficult to anticipate
the market for their houses"
The first step to be taken Is a
survey Of the existing housing sit
uation in the city. An attempt
should be made to find out the
number of dwelling units in exist
ence, the number of vacancies, the
physical condition of existing
houses, the number of owner-occu-
pied houses, and the number of
families which are doubled up.

New "A. F. of L.
Arbitration
Plan Set
Employers Play Role
In Adjudication
OF Disputes
BY JOHN DEAN MILLIGAN
Real Estate Editor

Although the daily press seems
to have overlooked the news. this
week has been featured by the
fruition Of plan Of utmost i'm
portance to the real estate and
building industries Of Washington
and the entire United States.
To these industries the develop
ment means the elimination Of q
monkey wrench often thrown into
their wheels during past years. To
the employees Of these industries
engaged in actual construction, it
means steadier work and fewer
headaches.
Succinctly, the news concerns
the machinery created by the
Building Trades Department Of the
American Federation Of Labor to
arbitrate jurisdictional disputes,
with the aid and consent Of en-
ployers, without stoppage Of work,
internal strife or quarrels between
employe and employer.
Unions Cooperate
The voluntary action of organ
lied labor in seeking a remedy for
jurisdictional disputes within its
own ranks is, of course, but one
more indication Of the value Of in
dustrial cooperation with respon-
sible unions rather than fly-by-
night "scabs."
However, the principal benefit
to employers in the building trades
Is naturally the overthrow of fear
that a jurisdictional dispute will
hinder construction and hence
cost money. Banished is the posi-
bility of a cessation Of work be-
cause the job of installing a win.
dow is claimed by a sheet metal
worker, an iron worker and a car.
penter.
Decisions Enforced
Behind the internal union dis
sension is a cause unconsciouSly
developed by private industry-the
rapid invention of new materials,
new ways of using old materials
and new standards of architecture.
Craft unions have encountered
difficulty in determining what
work goes to which union.
The adjudication of the trouble.
as formally adopted by the Build.
ing Trades Department, forces all
local and sectional bodies to settle
disputes by friendly arbitration, in
which employers have an equal
voice. This Is shown by the first
article of the official regulation,
which is as follows:
STRIKES BARRED
There may be set up wher-
ever there is a building trades
council and an employers aSS0-
citation in the construction in
duStry, an arbitration board
composed Of an equal number
from each group, which shall
temporarily determine jurisdic-
tiOnaI disputes for that locality.
"The determination is to be
effective until such time as the
dispute is reviewed by a national
referee, and there shall be no
strike, abandonment of work or
refusal to work or to go upon the
job because of jurisdictiOnal dis
putes."
The plan provides further that
local boards shall render decisions

within 48 hours, and that employ
ers may hire other workers if men
involved in a dispute violate the
rules by striking or refusing to
labor. ,..-t

"Most Men dislike seeing wo-
men wear pants, metaphorically
speaking. Within the past fifty
years the men folks have watch
ed the gradual encroachment OF
women upon what was once con-
sidered a mans world. The
worst of it has been that women
have proved themselves superb
or in many fields-even in pro-
LESSONS and trades that we used
to think would never be invaded
by the mis-called weaker sex"

but maybe we are wrong. Pro-
badly women should not go IL
