BY MARGARET NOVEL;.

The Christmas season, when mem

the house during the year pay divi-
dends. Each little task which seemed
troublesome has contributed its
share to the homes charm and COM
fort.
During the holidays your house Is
at It's best. 1t is pretty to look at,
with its best foot forward for friends
and family to enjoy. 1t is full Of
warm light, comfort and all the
things each of US has associated
with the idea of home" since We
could remember.
Each new furniture arrangement
was for purpose. Each new shelf
was built to hold priced possessions
Cupboards were placed in the
kitchen to please mother. The recre-
ton room was done just as father
liked it, the hall closet was built in
so that each member of the family
could find his own possessions as
easily as possible. AL those little de-
tails have gone to make a pleasant
home.

Now is good time to make the
plans for next year Houses, like the
lives that go on within them, never

constant attention and repair, never
ending polishing, cleaning and re-
furnishing.

the home background also must
change. or suddenly 1t is outgrown.

Postwar Home Buyers
Urged 10 Undertake
Arrangements Now

Arrangements for the construc.
ton of new homes after the war
should be started as soon as possible
or many thousands Of prospective
homeowners will be delayed as
much as a year in getting started.
Russell Creviston of the Producers
Council said today in statement.
"A recent estimate by the Market
Analysis Committee of the Pro-
ducers' Council indicates that only
about 10000 new dwelling units will
be constructed by builders and con-
tractors during the first - months
after the end of the war, while
nearly 10000 additional housing
accommodations will be needed"
the statement pointed out.
Builders in cities and towns
throughout the country are now
planning theif operations for the
postwar period. Until their organ
izations can be completely mobilized
and until materials and equipment
are freely available, these builders
can take care OF only small part
of the potential demands for homes.
Prospective homeowners who want
quick action should see builder
without delay and make all neces-
sary advance arrangements" he
added.
Individuals who want a specially
designed home should arrange now
for architectural service, have plans
and specifications prepared, select
a site, and make other necessary
arrangements so that construction
can be started with the minimum Of
delay after restrictions are removed.
THE home buying public tends to
forget that four to six months often
must elapse between the time when
they first approach their architect
and the time when actual construc-
ton can begin. The intervening
time is required for drafting and
approving plans and specifications,
selecting equipment, obtaining bids
and getting the work under way"
Mr.. Creviston said.
Advance planning of residential
construction also will help greatly
to reduce the temporarily heavy
period of unemployment which is
predicted for the months imme-
diately after the end of the war
when factories now engaged in man.
facture of war goods are reconvert-
ing to production of civilian re-

Farms and Ranches
Reported in Demand

Nathaniel Ewing, West Coast
manager Of Previews, Inc, OF the
National Real Estate Clearing
House, stated today he was par
ticularly impressed with the current
demand for income producing
farms, ranches and citrus groves"
during a recent visit to New York
to consult with Eastern realtors
and investors.
Mr.. Ewing said "the current de-
mand for sound investment in the
real estate field has increased be-
yond expectations. Capital from
North and South America, as well
as Europe, has made its way into
real estate in the form of purchases
Of small farms priced at from $3.50
to SITS an acre in such States as
Ohio to beef cattle and sheep
ranches valued at a million and a
million and a quarter in Colorado,
New Mexico and Texas.
Despite the recent publicity
given to the so-called inflationary
prices of such properties, I cannot
say that I have seen any funda-
mental justification for it IN my
inspection trips around the country.
True, the estate type of ranch has
been bringing prices which cannot
be considered justified from an
operating or earning standpoint
Such properties are still being
bought by wealthy Fasteners and
Middle Westerners as hedge
against imitation and with a view
toward their eventual retirement
from business"
Mr. Ewing returned to the coast
this week optimistic as to the future
of Western real estate. With the
war in the Southwest Pacific pro-
crossing satisfactorily. resulting In
the relaxing of war regulations on
the West Coast, the residential
market with prices up to $4,000
has been revitalized, he said. Mr..
Ewing believes that in another IL
months we shall see ourselves firmly
entrencled in a sellers market.
