REAL ESTATE - Urban real
estate, in the last two years. has
been following the example of
its big country cousin, farm
Land. City properties today in
most parts of the country are
up 10 to 80 per cent over prewar
levels and a few have risen even
more.
This may confound those who
figure that, with TO- 900, 900 Am
orleans in the armed forces
there'd be housing and business
properties to spare IN many cit
les. As often happens in econ
onomics, theories are proved
wrong by actual events.
A surprisingly large number of
families are living in two or
more places. This results from
one or more members of the
family being away from home
on a war job or to live near a
relative in a military camp. An
other unexpected development
Is the buying of retail store To-
cations by merchants who have
surplus cash and wish to take
advantage of depreciation and
other charge-off on income tax
permitted to the owners of bust
ness property.
Estimates are that building
costs Immediately after the war
will be 20 to 80 per cent HIGHER.
If, and as long as, such costs
prevail, present prices for exist
ent properties will not be out of
line in most cases.
BITS O. BUSINESS rndicat-
i've of the rising confidence a.
mong British investors in the
success of Allied arms is the rise
in price of German bonds in the
London market. From a price OF
SIS per $1,000 bond in February,
1914, the bonds have increased
to $165 ........ Since 1900 the pro-
portion of the nations working
population in agriculture has
dropped from 81 to IS per cent.
This trend is expected to con-
tfnue with increased farm mech
anization after the war ........ Es-
Inmates indicate that in 1914 re-
tail sales will hit an au-time
high of between &c an 60 million
dollars - 20 million more than
in the boom year OF 20.

Behind The Scenes
American Business
BY John Cruddock

Beginning this week, regional
directors OF the War Production
Board have authority to allow
limited output of scarce civilian
goods where this will not inter-
tere with the war effort. While
this should help to lay down a
pattern for reconversion, it is
generally believed in business
circles that it does not promise
any important increase in civil
Ian production for the period
Immediately ahead.
Merchants therefore are not
counting on having much add
! ltional merchandise to offer con-
Sumers this fall. Major bottle
necks in war production, chiefly
due to the need for more work.
erS, continue to be the steel in
dustry, the foundries, and the
heavy truck and tire factories.
Retailers can figure, however,
that more miscellaneous durable
goods will be available, and
some soft goods also. But cot
ton goods will remain scarce be-
cause a further diversion of
rooms from civilian goods to
heavy military fabrics has been
ordered.

at Waterbury hospital this morning
after being run over by his own

ernoon.
Plat told DR.. Harold E. Traver

crank the machine to ploy some
leased land adjacent to his farm,
when the tractor, apparently haV"
ing been left in gear, started up.
He attempted to shut off the
motor in the car, when apparently
his clothing caught in the metal
Tugs. He was dragged down under
the machine between the wheel and
chassis, and carried along with
