DUILDIflG OF ALL
KlfM REPORT
President of Association,
' , Back" From Tour of East
; N em Cities, Cites Pre
vailing Conditions. ;
.Men thinking of building will be
" ' j-nerttcd in facts gathered by W.
R. Adair, president of the Omaha
'.jLoan and Building association, just
returned from a tour of eastern
cities. Discussing the buildiijg sit-
I'lctioTu he said:
' '""From my 'observation Omalfa is
tiding more building than any citv I
visited, or other cities about which I
nlkcd with men "I met, Omaha
"gained 'a great advantage when it
Maited ,m active building program
frtv last year and thus accom
plished s. great v deal toward over
coming the shortage in homes and
, ill , kinds of, building; but today
there i even'greater shortage in ail
" kind? of buildings and what jjros
; pert have wei for improving this sit-
', nation
"Prom a careful survey of build-
. iittr operations at this time. Omaha
will niaU; a gain ii everv kind of
building except possibly ware
houses and medium-priced dwell
ings. " Tt is hoped that before long
some gcod method of cheaper con
duction for the moderate home
mHI be found. Today many who
were doubtful as to whether prices
Jvould drop arc now convinced that
it will ht no cheaper to build for a
fcood many years to come.
Apartment Shortage Manifest,
v "Looking over the housing sittia
' iion in Ihe east I found many in
. tc-tslicr situations and isome very
4lifh.cult problems. ronf a general
jnouirjf I find the shortage of homes
nd art meats increasingly njani
1'esr, and in no given locality has
,the demand been met. j
,v'fn many localities where ' pros-
Jpfctive builders preferred to wait in
the expectancy that prices would
jdrorv they arc paying for a "costly
rxperimcnt in procrastination." Par
ticularly is this so in New York
.City, where it is estimated there ii
-a shortage of 33 per cent as com
'"faxred to prewar building programs.
Tt , is predicted for this year th:t
Sew York' 'City , will break al!
previous building records.
"In' no locality Ix have visited is
Jhere any apprehension of a drop
.in prices for a good many years to
"come, the demand for all' "building
materials being far beyond the plant
rapacity of the entire country, The
. ,factdries are., operating but little
:over- 50 per cent of the prewar
Rapacities, owing -to , changed labor
'Conditions and difficulty in securing
-raw materials.
i -:
Money Market Improves.
- J'It is interesting tcPnote condi
tions of the money market on build
nig construction. In the east there
'it serious complaint that the sources
. ofjnoney for this class of loans
liave preferred commercial Joans on
tlortcr time and higher rates of in
;trest. 45ut this condition is. show-
. '&ig. a .great improvement and there
j$ a brighter prospect that sufficient
money will be available to carry
out the much needed building jro
jjjects of all classes for this year.
J "After a careful analysis of the
i range of real estate loans made else
j where, I find thaf in this locality we
are loaning on a lower percentage
i of values than is the case in any
J other place I have been. The buiio
i ing and loan contract in this, utatc
lis generally on a 10 1-2 to 11-year
basis arid the matter of percentage
i now seldom enters into, the question
of the amount' of a 'loan, being
I based upon' the amount of cash
j payment nnde to protect the. first
i mortgage. About 75 per cent of the
loans made by our association last
'year were cash paid in full to loan
- or no second mortgage.
"One of the difficulties encount
f ered in many localities is that of
j financing above'the loan. It is gen
fralljr conceded that the gap bc
' 'tween the first ' mortgage and the
5 initial payment is widening, and in
ieome localities this condition is be-
ing overcome by strong second
5 mortgage companies.
Omaha Money Abundant,
j "I doubt if there is a section in
I the United States where the people
i have as much' money for initial pay
j ments as they have in Omaha and
. the middle west. This is indicated
by the unusual amount they are a.hle
; j to pay in the purchase of property.
While in the past it has been cus-
tomary to pay down from 10 to 15
.' per cent, nowadays, in the majority
of cases, not less than 30 to 40 per
xent is being paid.
k I "In the east I found some little
consrderation being given to the
, question of the safety of loans today

based upon ruling real estate values,
but any misgivings that may have
been expressed related only to the.
siraigin loan anu not to tne amorti
zation plan of loans practiced bv
.building and" loan associations. By
this I mean that the monthly pay
ments made oh a loan placed by
building and loan associations cut
down the pripcipal loan from month
to month and year td year which
has the effect, of course, of increas
ing the security.
"There is nothingin the general
situation, sovfar as I could sec.- that
would indicate any depreciation of
values, but should a slump corned at
any time in the future, the building
and loan associations! occupy a se
cure position respecting the sound
ness of their mortgages."

Old-Fashioned Annuals Are
' Haying Their Day After
A Period of
' Retirement;
Old-fashion annuals, ancient fa
vorites in oun, grandmothers' garden,
are having their day after n period
of retirement before the furor for
perennials. The marigold, the snap
dragon,, the lupin,- and others now
find luxurious homes not only in
the garden, but on-the greenhouse
benches. Snapdragons iand ' pot
marigolds adorn the florists' win
dow the year round where, a few
years ago they found little place.
They bloom, that is the secret.
Neglect doesn't stop them. The bet
ter care the larger and more lavish
their display, but they will always
bloom.. Graduated from the little
patch of posies wherever grand
mother found room for them, they
now hobnob with the tea roses and
other floral aristocrats.
Blooms in To Months.

time with annuals is always an easy

achieved a triumph in the new col

color. And they bloom and bloom.
