PROTECTING YOUR DOLLAR
Real Estate Syndicotion
BY LOUIS J. LEFKOWITZ
ATTORNEY General Of New York
Substituting for Sylvia Porter, Who Is on Voeoto'

participated as investors in
such syndicates during the past
few years-attracted by a high
yielding Investment return. The
number is increasing steadily.
The concern of such agencies
as the Attorney Generals Of
flee and the Securities and Ex-
change Commission is not over
the ethical practices of repu-
table and responsible agencies
in the real estate syndication
field. Our concern is focused
solely on dishonest manipula-
tors who seek to infiltrate this
comparatively new field and
reap huge profits at the ex-
pense of innocent investors.
Funds Deposited
A case which the New York
Attorney Generals Office re-
Gently investigated is an ex-
ample of such unethical con-
duct and fraud, although this
story should not be considered
representative of the ethics Of
the majority of syndicators.
In this case, a syndicate was
formed to build at 81 million
luxury motel in Washington
D. c. 1t used $125,000 of It's
own to buy the site, then raised
S436, 900 from 1876 investors with
a promise of immediate IL pei
cent interest. The $436,00U was
to be kept in trust fund tc
build the 200-room motel.
Instead, the funds were de-
posted in a general account
maintained by the company or
Long Island and most of the
S436.000 was used for purposes
other than construction Of
the motel for which investors
thought it would be used.
Investigators found only &

of assets belonging to the firm
were uncovered in New York
City and Puerto Rico. Today
two court-appointed receivers
are studying the company's f.
nancial condition to determine
how much can be salvaged for
investors.
The moral of this manipula-
ton should be clear: A little
caution and investigation on
the part Of investors would
have saved them from consid-
cradle losses and financial
headaches.
AS in all investments, it is
essential that you use caution
and investigate what you're
putting your money into before
you buy. This is as true OF
shares in real estate syndicates
as of everything else-perhaps
more so because the field Is
new!
No reputable syndicator OBJ
jects to:
Making a full and fair
disclosure to investors of all
facts relating to a promotion
and purchase of property.
2. Maintaining adequate
books and records of all trans
actions with investors.

One of the Nations leading
real estate organizations pro-
claims: Real Estate Is Every
body's Business"
The truth of this slogan is
evident in the heavy investment
in realty throughout the Nation.
Insurance companies, banks,
savings institutions and other
agencies have billions invested
in such holdings. More than
so per cent of the country's
families are home owners
owners of piece Of valuable
real estate.
Until rather recently. the
"little man" confined his in
vestments to modest properties
attainable within his income
and capital. In recent years,
however, a number of experts
devised a plan to enable the
little man" to Join in invest
ments in high Welding and in
coma-producing properties
The plan is simple: A group
Is organized to purchase a large
and desirable piece of real es-
tate or, in some cases, partial
interest in commercial proper
ties such as a shopping center
apartment house, Office build
ing or hotel.
Method Explained
Either before or after actua,
title is taken to a property
"fra actional shares" are offered
to investors. The cost of the
shares varies according to the
property involved. This is now
known as real estate syndlca
ton"
Under proper management
syndication thus offers anothe
valuable investment potentia

$40 Billion Rise Seen
For Economy in 1860
BY WILLIAM A. MILLEN

The 1860 economic outlook will bring total estimated
net increase of $40 billion which will changes in

This the prediction today by Gerhard Colin, chief
economist Of the National Planning Association
Hampshire NV, which is nonproft nonpoitiacl
Evening star., 1959-12-21

organization devoted to plan
ming in agriculture, business,
labor and the professions.
DR.. Colin sees it this way:
Increase in business outlayS
for plant and equipment $3.5
billion; replenishing of ex-
hausted stocks of steel and
products $2.5 billion; effect of
new type cars on consumer
buying $2.5 billion; planned
increase in state and local gov
ernment outlays 50 billion;
contemplated increases in out
lays of Federal Government for
goods and services nearly one
half billion; increase in net
exports due to improved con-
ditions in foreign industrial
market SIS billion.
He said in addition to these
increases which add up to Sl2.5
billion there are some expected
reductions which may amount
to more than 81 billion. He
listed these as:
A decline in farm invest
mentS one-half million dollars;
a decline in residential con-
struction SIS billion, as well
as other restraining effects of
the high interest rates-an un-
known quantity.
DR.. Colin anticipates the
Gross National Product will be
slightly below $500 billion, ex-
pressed in 1859 prices.
1T is our conviction that We
have in the United States the
productive resources to meet
all reasonable defense and nom
defense national and interna-
tional requirements" he said
ITO meet the challenge, these

way of effective use of these
resources must be removed"
