Homes Costing $4,000
Have Almost Vanished
From Market Here

Real estate offerings in the Wash
mgton area show a pronounced"
increase this year over 1910, and at
the same time homes costing $1,000
and less have practically disap-
peared from the market, William H.
Husband, general manager of the
Federal Savings and Loan Insur-
ance Corp, said today.
Mr.. Husband pointed to the sit
uation in Washington and similar
conditions in Detroit, Los Angeles,
Kansas City, San Francisco and
Seattle to illustrate what he called
"a Tightening squeeze play on the
small home buyer" as a result of
an 'inf1ationary" price rise.
His report was based on a ran
dom check" of newspaper advertise
ments on June 2, 1910, in COMPARE
son advertisements appearing May
5, 1916.
Big Drop is Found.
OF all houses of six rooms or less,
advertised here on the one day, At
per cent were listed at $4,000 and
under in 1910, while this year only
8 per cent were listed at $1,000 and
under.
of ITO such houses with an ask
ing price, in Washington Sunday
paper of June 2, 1910, only two bore
a price of $4,000 or more, he said,
while on May S, this year, $50 per
cent of the 279 small houses adver-
tised were above that price,
Similar trends were reported for
other cities, as follows:
Per cent of all advertised houses Of Q
rooms or less priced at $4,000 and under:

In Los Angeles, he said, more than
so per cent of listings on a recent
day were in excess of $4,000.
Beyond Low-Cost Plan.
these prices take on added sig
nif1cance when it is remembered
that a price ceiling of $4,000 was
applied to the bulk of new construc-
ton during most of the war period"
he said.
Houses costing more than 10000
are clearly beyond any concept of
low-cost housing" he said. with
25-year CT mortgage up to the full
price of the property, and interest
at per cent, the monthly payment
on a $4,000 loan, exclusive of taxes
and other current costs, amounts
to $50 per month"; high commit
ment for almost all veterans to
make, even at current income

Under these conditions, the ex-

the homeseeker can do is to exer-
else the utmost caution and to seek
all the expert advice he can find"

SINGAPORE, April 13. Sir
Charles Vyner Brooke. 7l-year -old
white rajah of Sarawak, said today
he was confident the subjects Of his
North Borneo domain would approve
his proposal to cede the country to
the British crown.
Why shouldn't they?", he asked
at a press conference. why should
they think the old man-which Is
what they call me-would be letting
them down now?"
Sir Charles said he had been mis-
represented in reports that he
planned to sell his country for /, ,000,-
600 pounds. He said that to the
contrary, he was carrying out a pol
icy instituted before the war when
he granted a small measure Of in
stitutional reform in l94l.
The rajah said that Sarawak had
been under the more or less auto
cratic rule Of the Brooke family for
100 years, and he had decided that
the day for such autocratic rule was
past.
Therefore, he said, he had con-
cluded that it was the best policy to
turn the country over to the British
crown, so that the British govern
ment would be available to restore
the war damage to the country's
resources and the British colonial
administration could undertake the

problems committee of the Council
of Social Agencies declared yester-,
day.
The committees statement came
as the result of a study it COM
pleted last week. The study showed,
it said, that present assistance
grants are too low and that the
public assistance and childrens
services Of the Welfare Board are
inadequately stated.
At present, 1t was said, relief
clients are receiving only 80 per
cent of the amount which the We'll
fare Board has determined to be
necessary for a decent standard of
living. A predicted increase of 991
persons who will need relief during
the coming year, the committee said,
will mean further reduction in relief
