Building Costs
SettIeAfter
Sharp Rise
Competition Keeps
Murketon Even
Course in Capital
By JAMES Y. NEWTON.

Home building costs in Washing
ton have settled somewhat lower in
recent weeks following the rather
sharp rise of last fall. and despite
all the defense activity and the
heavy drain on labor and materials
for huge Government orders, the
buyer easily gets his moneys worth
in today's home market, real estate
experts point out.
Although the Capital is definitely
boom town" in many ways, the
home market is keeping an even and
conservative course due largely to
competition. 1t is highly COM
petitive market, and whether he
wants to or not. the individual
builder cannot afford to raise the
price of his houses unduly or he will
find half dozen builders in his area
have beaten him on price. For this
reason, and because of easy"
financing terms and great improve
ment in building materials and home
equipment. the buyer today gets "a
lot of house for his money"
1t is estimated by builders here
that construction costs rose about
Z per cent last fall when the huge
defense orders began to flood the
lumber mills and plants of materials
manufacturers. The price of lum-
Der increased Is per cent, and much
more in many instances. The price
of plumbing materials rose, as did
other products which 60 into a
house. The grade of lumber and
some other materials which home
builders received for a while WASH:
the best, to say the least
Lumber Prices Lower.
In recent weeks lumber prices
have dropped from 10 to Is per cent,
and prices of some other materials
likewise have shown slightly down.
ward trend. Builders expect current
prices to hold until there is a def
mite development in the war. Should
this country actively enter the war
1t is believed prices would soar and
materials for home building would
be hard to get at any price. Costs
are expected to remain about where
they are so long as this country's
status with regard to war remains
the same
Last fall labor costs rose about
IS per cent, and some types of
building craftsmen, particularly car
penters, were hard for home builders
to find. High wages at nearby
Army camps attracted many. These
camps have been largely completed
and the labor situation here has
been eased to some extent. In re-
cent weeks the cost of labor has
settled somewhat, although the
builder is unable to get it as freely
as before the defense program
began.
Asked what the increase in cost
over last year has been for a small
home which he sells for $4,000,
one builder estimated it at $3.50.
Three or four months ago it was
about $50 more. This recent drop is
principally due to lowering prices
of lumber and labor This builder
said the quality of lumber has i'm
proved over what it was last fall.
Materials, he said, are being de-
livered about as quickly as they
were a year ago. On larger con-

Producers Council Urges
High Building Standards

The tempo of the national defense
program should not impair build
ing standards, declares a bulletin
of the Producers Council. which is
affiliated with the American Insti-
tute of Architects. The situation
presents a challenge not only to the
producer of building products but
to architects and engineers, it is
pointed out.
While portions of the national
defense program are admittedly for
temporary use only, consideration
should be given to the possibility of
the need arising for longer period
of usefulness" according to the
bulletin. Structures other than of
the most temporary character call
for the maintenance of standards
of quality necessary to insure con-
tinuing lowest possible maintenance
and operating costs.

 His name may be Roy. And then again it may not. No one can say yet.
 But it's certan that whoever winds up as the regular, satisfac- tory left fielder for the Reds will have cost more than anys other player. e
 Already the Reds have spent more than a quarter million trying to find this fielding hitting star.

ss First of series of instructive win dow displays showing modern in- fantry weapons in the rifle cCm- rany and a complete teardown of the newly adopted and much vaunt- ed Garand rifle was finished in the windows of the Juneau Young Hal dware Store this morning.
 Showing parts of the field equip- ment and arms of the modern sol oier in action, the showcase con- tains weapons issued to the Juneau units of the Alaska National Guard Weapons in the display are the 60 nm. mortr, the Browning Automat- ic Rifle, both old-style and modified, the Garand semi-automatic rifle. and the 30 calibre light machine gun. Equipment from the headquar- ters detachment includes field radio phone and pack, field tale- graph and field telephone switch board.
 The much publicized and disputed Garand rifle is shown as used in the field ready for action, field stripped into it's three parts, and complete ly torn down to show the workiug mechanism of the eight-sho semi automatic weapon.
