D. {. Building Permits
Show Sharp Decline
For June, 6 Months
By Nelson N. Shepard

Washington building permits
took such a tumble in dollar value
during June that the $5.021 .20a
decline from the June, 1850, fig
ure, wiped out earlier gains and
accounted for a loss Of $3.50, 1893
in the first six months of the year
compared with the same period a
year ago.
June permits totaled $3.749, ,273,
the loss being not only the largest
in dollar volume in the entire
Fifth Reserve District but also be-
ing one of the sharpest percentage
declines. Nearest approach to it
was Winston-S Salem, N. c., where
the June decline was $4.713.410.
For the first six months, Wash
ington building permits totaled
S33,931,271. Last year the total
was $37.8l1,66 for the first half.
In the Fifth District, the $780,
33O,268 recorded in the first six
months showed a sizeable loss, last
years comparable figure having
been $207, ,528,273.
Bankruptcies Increase.
In spite of increased employ
ment, the Richmond Federal Re-
serve Bank reported today that
bankruptcies are increasing in
the Richmond and Alexandria
divisions of the Federal Eastern
District of Virginia.
Melvin Wallinger, Federal ref
cree in bankruptcy, said the num-
Der of bankruptcy petitions reach
ing him jumped from 1919 during
the first six months last year to
228 the first half of this year.
There was no breakdown of the
figures by cities. THE bulk of
these" he said, "are filed by low
income workers. Occasionally we
have few from small business
firms and rarely one from large
industry" He said he could not
account for the increase.
