Do You Really Want To Buy House?
Give Heed To Voice Of Experience
By SAUL PETT
NEW YORK, Oct. 112. CP) If you're having difficulty buying
house, pull up a chair and listen. I'm an authority on the subject
I have been buying a house every Sunday for three years. I have
driven 15,682 miles tin just the suburbs, of course! and'l have spent
$322.43 on gas and oil but I have been able to do ail this with the
tame car, the same wife, and the help of only three psyciatrists.
And so I say to you, friend, i
don't be afraid. You can have i

When Christopher Colum
bus arrived on Oct. 12, 1492,
he discovered a land he didn't
know existed and started the
greatest c-ie way tourist trip in
history. The tourists have been
coming ever since , . , and mil
lions of us have stayed long
enough to turn Columbus'
beachhead Into a pretty fair
sized project. Did you ever
think that if Chris' had stayed
at home we might not be here
now? Maybe someone else
would have made the trip, but
It was Chris who took the big
Jump and found a New World.

is not as confusing as
you might think.
Just don't buy on impulse.
Don't buy on. faith. Be prac
tical. Make sure you answer ail
the vital questions before buy
ing: Will the style of architecture
be outdated in five or 50 years?
Is it colonial. Cape Cod, Cali
fornia bungalow, modern, Eng
lish Tudor, early American,
French provincial, Dutch col
onial, Georgia, Spanish, Nor
mandy or ranch? Be careful;
practically everything these days
is called a - ranch house. All
some builders need is a small,
high window in the bedroom
and they think they've got a
home on the range.
Who owns the lot next door
and are they planning a glue
factory?
Is the agent over-selling you
or underselling you and does
he have a thin, hard mouth or
a police record?
What exactly does he mean by
saying, "You can own this home
if you earn $4,000 a year." Does
he think you'll be able to eat, J
too? When he says vou can I
heat the place for $8 a month,
does he mean in the winter or
summer.
Are metal cross pieces between
floor joists better than wooden
bridging?
How good is the commuting?
Don't take anybody's word for
it. Take a week off, ride the
railroad yourself with an ac
curate watch. Do you sit or
stand? Can the guy across the
aisle play canasta? I
Are the rooms big enough for J
the furniture and the children?
Which will fhuve to go first?
Is there a full basement and,
if there isn't will radiant heat
ing prevent dampness and where
will you store all the things you
will never use again? Also, is
it true people get fiat feet from
walking on concrete floors?
Do you really like a picture
window and what do you get
a picture of and what will the
neighbors get a picture of and
those small little sections which
open, will they be enough t
carry a breeze?
How good is the insulation?
Is it rock wool, glass wool, cot
ton blankets, wood fiber hlan
kets, metal foil, mica bubbles
and, by the way, what are mica
bubbles?
Is the sewage already In or
will a picturesque old man come
to tear up your front lawn every
two years or so?
Do you want a house like 100
other houses in a development or
do you want to pay more to be
distinctive?
And what makes you think you
want a house?
I don't. I just like to have
some place to go Sundays.

missal w hich wa denied.
Louis C. Hafferman, presiding
inspector, when asked to name

erson, then moved to have the
warrant of arrest canceled. This
